how lucky we are.
So I had the pleasure of seeing the spectacular Meiko in concert last night. By far, one of my favorite musical finds since moving to California. A tiny, adorable little foul-mouthed girl from Georgia in a tiny, adorable little packed venue in Hollywood. It made my heart full.
Opening for her was a guy named Dan Wilson. I didn’t recognize the name and the music on his myspace was ok, but not terribly memorable. We showed up part way through his set. His recordings don’t do him justice. He was actually quite engaging and incredibly funny. He starts telling a story about the creation of a song… Here is a clip of him telling the same story (although I think he’s perfected it some since last November.) And if Wikipedia is correct, this is actually a true story. Who knew.
