music meanderings

i love netflix. not only have i gotten to see several movies and television shows that i had not previously seen, but i've had the pleasure of seeing some of my favorite performers in concert.

like melissa etheridge. live and alone. it was amazing. i'm buying a copy asap.

and sarah maclachlan. now, melissa, i've seen before - live, in person with the drumbeat thrumming in my chest like a second heart and my g/f beside me ... it was amazing. i gotta say... the dvd was almost as good as that (i think if i'd been able to share the "watching" experience with a special lady then yeah, it would be as good ;)

but sarah, i've never seen, but for one performance on leno.

wow. afterglow...live. a-freaking-mazing. just mindblowingly good. plus, she really, really knows how to give back to her fans. 20 plus songs. the encore seemed almost as long as the actual show ... and her voice never faltered, never scratched... it was pure and lovely and yeah, i'm in "after concert bliss" LOL now i must go dig out all my sarah cds and rip them to my harddrive so i can listen allthetime LOL

anyway, yeah, this one goes onto my "gonna buy" list too :D

argh! darn it!

they cancelled threshold, the bastards. i liked that show. much more than surface (which, i'll grant, is getting better) or invasion (the premise of which so bored me, i didn't bother to watch it) argh! someone needs to get the peeps at scifi channel to grab this one... it's well worth it!! (hey, maybe it could run counter to battlestar galactica... you know, half the season is bsg, half is threshold... yeah... i'd so watch that!)

erf. stupid#@$Q$#teevee execs. shouldn't have moved threshold in the first place... it was doing fine on fridays. heck. put it on saturday... that's like, no man's land. ain't nothing new on saturdays on broadcast teevee. sheesh. :/
