Awesome.... one of my videos from the recent symphony show is the "featured video" on brandis myspace page :) Thats so cool to me... I'm always happy to see artists that support youtube. They see it for what it is, free publicity! I come from a long past of taping shows and being obsessed with archiving the moment. Video is the best of both worlds, and I'm happy to see it … [Read more...] about Video on Brandis Myspace

"Secret Show" 8-15-08
After what has seemed like a lifetime, Brandi has finally played at home again..... The show was billed as "Late Morning Lullaby", and took place at a small club here in Seattle. The Tractor Tavern is actually the first place I saw Brandi.... My best friend and I attended a Tegan & Sara show, and her and Tim were the opening act. Jeez....this was.....5 years ago?? maybe … [Read more...] about "Secret Show" 8-15-08
Newest Artwork
Its been a very long time since I've been able to draw something, just for fun. So here's the latest creation.... this is from Brandis "turpentine" video. I think it came out pretty well with the image full size, but she looks like she was in a fight (or stoned) when its shrunk small. So much for using it as a avatar! Anyway, this was done in Flash... my preferred way of … [Read more...] about Newest Artwork
lego dyke
Wow....where has time gone??? Since Brandi wasn't playing in the US for a loooong time, I instead focused on: Graduating School A New Relationship A New Job Finally Quitting my Crappy Job And traveling to CT 3 times! My gf found a picture of a Lego, that looked like a dyke (and ironically like her). It was wearing this awful purple flowered shirt that NO dyke … [Read more...] about lego dyke
3x’s the Brandi
I just saw 3 brandi shows and meant to write about each show individually, but there just wasn't enough time. This past week has been a whirlwind of driving to shows and then racing back for work/class. I shouldn't be too surprised that I ended up sick.... 10/27 Vancouver BC: I made 2 new friends, that invited me to join them for the Canada show. Granted I'm only a few … [Read more...] about 3x’s the Brandi
9/6/07 Eugene, OR
This is definitely one of the BEST Brandi shows I have ever seen. I can't remember the last time I have seen a show, that had me surprised and delighted from beginning to end. Usually we only have one, or two new songs to chew on..... but this time, we had FIVE! It was pretty much a rock show the whole time, breaking only for a short acoustic set (one song being sung … [Read more...] about 9/6/07 Eugene, OR
Busy Weekend
I had 3 days notice that Brandi was going to be doing a free gig at Easy Street Records 8/3.... and as usual, i rearranged my life just to be there. Work? School? forget it... I don't mind working hard, long as i can have my enjoyment as well. I was pretty astonished to hear about the gig. I never thought i would see her play such a small place IN SEATTLE again (hence, why … [Read more...] about Busy Weekend

I didn't even know until the zoo show, that brandi was doing a radio gig today. I didnt think i had a shot in hell of getting to be there...... but i got lucky! About 5 other people from the againtoday forum were there too... so nice to see everyone again! I thought i was gonna have to wait all summer :D The station provided a mexican lunch before the gig, and then brought … [Read more...] about 6-29-07 Star 101.5 FM
6-27-07 Zoo Tunes
Concerts at the Zoo, take place on a general admission lawn. I arrived at noon, and totally planned on spending a boring day reading..... instead, time flew. Brandi has a strong set of fans here, and its a pleasure meeting every one of them. I'm hard-of-hearing, and am usually pretty anti-social because of it (tough to hear in clubs!). But today i was totally in my element, … [Read more...] about 6-27-07 Zoo Tunes
Brandi Carlile Paper Dolls posted!
yep..... i finally finished. I finished them a few weeks ago actually, but havent had time to post it. So here ya go... There's still a few things i would like to add before i put this in a portfolio. I would like to make it so the tabs disappear when put on the body, and maybe add a little bit of animation. Like eye blinks and smile movement. I also thought it might be cool … [Read more...] about Brandi Carlile Paper Dolls posted!
