WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I've been wanting to see Christine live for years and she's never come anywhere NEAR Kansas City (and if she has been here I don't want to know because I didn't know about it and I MISSED IT!) Here's what Ladyslipper has to say about Christine: Christine Lavin Future Fossils This is Christine's first LP (she had an earlier EP called "Husbands and Wives", about relationships--the unequal kind) full of social commentary, 50/50 humor and serious, somewhere between live and studio, of original songs. This artist is someone the NY Times calls "a pungent folk-pop humorist...writes wryly comic vignettes of city life that also have an emotional edge." Includes Cold Pizza for Breakfast, a spoof of diets, Regretting What I Said which skewers men who find it difficult to tell the truth, and Don't Ever Call Your Sweetheart By His Name which turns the tables on men who've called women "darling" for centuries...this song was banned from Gracie Mansion. During a discussion with this reviewer, Christine said "My mantra is pizza." (PH1104) Christine Lavin Beau Woes and Other Problems of Modern Life
