IT’S ALIVE at The Virgin Megastore!

I just received some press shots of my in store appearance and gig at The Virgin Megastore in Sydney the week of my album launch, 10/17. Many thanks to their ever cool store manager, David Mottek, and his staff for making it quite an event! It was really cool to be playing back in the city – I lived there for about three years before I took off to the U.S.A, so it was super fun to spend some time back in my old stomping ground. I was assailed by many happy and goofy memories of the wild times I had there back in my early 20’s, rockin’ around town with my soul sista E.T and cashed up with my first big publishing advance. Man those were the days! Lol! Said soul sista and I got together there again for the launch celebrations of Shadow Wine and Truth Lilies and we were hoofin’ it up George Street one night when I said, “You know my feet are killing me! I’m buggered and I just wanna sit down and have a nice cup of tea… We used to do walk all over the city back in the day in crazy high heels and I don’t remember ever having sore feet or anything… how did we do it?!” E.T laughed and said, “well, we were most likely inebriated!..” Yeah we were full of piss and vinegar, too. We sure had a good time, though. The face of rock and roll has changed for us – it’s a bit older and wiser now and though we may not “party” quite like we used to when it comes down to it I think we are actually more “rock n roll” now than ever. Something happens in your 30’s, and I think this is especially true for women, where you don’t take fools lightly, (you don’t tend to make a fool of yourself quite so much either! Lol!) and you don’t take much shit from anybody. Your authenticity radar is more efficient than ever. And that rocks.
