Oh man I am SO SORRY for the late blogging on this - it was a crazy weekend!
Ani was amazing in concert. I can’t believe I’ve made it this far in my life and not seen her yet. We were literally about 400 yards away from her, we got there early and waited in line in the cold… it was amazing. Fucking amazing. The energy in the club was fantastic, 1200 people perfectly together, totally focused on this one woman and the words she was singing.
She played a really long set, but the ones I remember are:
+ The Atom
+ Manhole
+ Dilate
+ 78% Water
+ Shameless
+ Sunday Morning
And her encore… WAS PERFECT ~ She played Gravel and 32 Flavors … I’ve never really seen a crowd like that - so fucking intense, everyone was singing for Gravel, everyone was alternately singing and silent for 32 Flavors.
Plus, the venue was so intimate that we all got to feel so close to her… it was incredible. My life is complete now. Really.
And the verdict stands: Ani DiFranco is a fucking Goddess.
