paisley Posted March 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Carole Pope rocked. Sounds as good as she did when I was a teenage, if not better, and holds the stage like a pro. Still writing great heartfelt/raunchy songs after all these years. Weird older crowd for the most part, well dressed aging hipsters who would rather sit and yell between songs than stand and dance. A good night. Here's some pics I took if anyone is interested. Not great quality but captures the evening more or less.

paisley Posted March 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Looks like there was no one there. naw, actually every table in the place to the very back of the room and the whole bar were full, tables set up on the dance floor too... not jammed but pretty busy... just an older, sitting crowd (weird coincidence, turns out Goddo was playing in town the same night... what are the odds?)

bONES Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 i ran into Carol Pope last night (this morning) at an after hours party. She was drinking water and skipped on the fatty being passed around. Couldn't help but sing "highschool confidential" over and over in my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
