mystique clarity

dresdendolls
Several months ago I wrote a post with an aside about Amanda Palmer from the Dresden Dolls, who also writes a blog which I dip into from time to time. Here is an artist from a well-known, if cultish, band providing some streamed views of their band's life experiences.

There is also a rather lucid and thoughtful back-channel in the comments, which can individually be the same length as the original posts. Dresden Dolls get described by Wikipedia as Brechtian Punk Cabaret and have a mix of performance art and good songs. So this evening, we've been playing a festival's worth of their music, accompanied with a pleasant glass of wine. Here's a rare version of Amsterdam. If you look around where it came from you may also find Kaledrina.
