It looks like this one's been killed, but anyway: She raised 1.2million dollars on kickstarter but wants musicians to play for free when she comes to town.

Everything that could go wrong with progressive rock has gone wrong with this track—and the androgynous voice isn't helping.

Yes! And Amanda F. Palmer is an amazing performer. I'd love to hear "Map of Tasmania" on RP.   {#Tongue-out}

In the three years I've been listening to Radio Paradise this is officially the first song I've hated.
A resounding 1 from me.

Very nice to have Tori Amos follow Amanda Palmer. Radio Paradise is revealing their love of romance and intrigue.

I know you were just dying for that tidbit...
 
... and what does that say about all the other babes women in Boston?  I'm changing my vacation plans right now.

Sure doubt it, her new album cover is HOT!  The music not so much.  She's married to Neil Gaiman, one of my fave authors.

ok, so I went and checked out KY.  Interesting.  Amanda "ripped her act off" ?  No, not at all.

I saw her live as the Emcee in Cabaret, in which she wears white pancake and black lipstick. Her evil clown emcee face will haunt my dreams. (The show was awesome though)

The interplay of comments between April 22, 2010 and June is so hysterically funny, I can't quite believe it.  I don't even know how to put them in one place, but if someone could cut and paste the whole "sold a piano/sold a baby" exchange, it would make my entire year. Thank you, to all who participated in it - you're the kind of folks with whom I need to populate my life...  {#Lol}{#Group-hug}

I try to be as accepting as I can of world music.  There's only one kind I don't like:  Chinese Opera.  It sounds like an abomination to me.

This, on the other hand, is kinda awesome.  Kudos to her for being so frakking awesome.  I hope to be as awesome as her, someday.
