my loves
the dolls halloween show in DC last night was EVERYTHING AMAZING and we left blood on the stage. more pictures and setlists and goodness later, but for now here's a tiny clip of me playing terrible punk rock drums while brian plays excellent punk rock guitar. there were lots of other surprise treats but i don't want to spoil it for boston.
HEY HO. LET'S GO.
meanwhile
just a heads up....my past is back in my life in more ways than one.
you know the song. now meet the man.
later this month i'm taking part in a concert/conversation with my radio/interviewer/hero chrisopher lydon (who i came to love as the host of NPR's "the connection" on WBUR - thus the hilarious song. at least i thought it was hilarious at the time. nowadays i'm not so sure about the "incontinent" line). he's moved on from WBUR and now he's bravely making his own deep-news podcast & syndicated NPR show, called "Open Source" (not to be confused with Open Sores, which are what you get when you...whatever).
he's calling it "THIS IS YOUR LIFE, AMANDA PALMER" (how fucking frightening does THAT sound???? and he's going to interview me (deeply?) about EVERYTHING - musical influences, the internet, pain, life, love, the works. i am scared and thrilled. it's also very full-circle - he interviewed the dolls for our "dresden dolls at paradise" DVD oh-so-long (13 years?) ago, and he's been following my entire career since the eight foot bride. he knows me well.
you gotta see this, basically.
BUT - if you aren't in the boston area, DO NOT FEAR. a big point of doing this is to RECORD the whole evening for a joint AFP/OpenSource podcast, which we will Thing it here on patreon later this year (or maybe early next year).
this also means if you score tickets to this event, you'll be a recorded live studio audience. so no yelling "FREE BIRD" ad nauseum, ok?
it is:
november 27th at the first parish of cambridge in harvard square, massachusetts. i will try to do a pre-game meet up with the $10+ patrons just to say THANK YOU (and you guys deserve it, given the dearth of webcasts in the past few months).
doors will open at 6:30pm, show will start promptly at 7pm.
tickets go on sale for *patrons* starting on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3rd, keep your eyes peeled for a ticket link then.
patrons, along with christopher's email list, get first crack at tickets and then on monday we'll open up tickets to the public if there are any left (and i imagine there will not be).
I LOVE YOU.
speaking of boston, see a lot of you in two sleeps.
