Ha. Going back and watching a bit of this webstream fills me with glee. I’d mentioned a couple of weeks ago wanting to try some weird stuff, like a candlelit show where we do a bunch of old stuff (sort of forgetting that said old stuff is in my tiny tiny tiny handwriting in old faded notebooks) – and Heather, despite saying “this is YOUR vision!” really ran with it and set up a beautiful space in her husband’s music library. We had an amazing time, lots of fans seemed to really enjoy it too.


“I miss PLOJ. I miss staying up late and just playing whatever I stumble across in one of my old song books. Minus the fact that we’ll go Live at 7 just like every week, that’s what I want to do tomorrow. Prepare to hear some things you’ve maaaaybe never heard before. Prepare to watch me squint at my tiny tiny tiny handwriting. Prepare to have a good night with ilyAIMY Live from the Lair from the Porch from the Spare Oom by candlelight.”
