Amanda Palmer & Beth Ditto duet (photos & video) +++++++++ a new GOSSIP song

the new Gossip song on MySpace is whatever, but this is pretty sweet...

Amanda Palmer, Beth Ditto (& Madame), NYC - June 21, 2007 (CRED)

It was one of those nights... that leaves you wondering, "How the hell did I end up here with Amanda Palmer and Beth Ditto and Madame singing Radiohead's 'Creep' complete with ukelele?" It started with the True Colors concert... which was *amazing*... right from the beginning with the Drag Queen Rockettes (of whom I knew 4!). I also particularly enjoyed The Dresden Dolls, The Gossip, Erasure and, of course, Cyndi Lauper. Margaret Cho was a highlight, too. Chris Tuttle had told me about the after party fundraiser for LifeBeat, so, I scooted over there and got to hang with him and Joe and Madame and Trai La Trash for a few hours... good times. :) [...says lisapodak]
Unfortunately I don't have a video nearly as good as the last one I posted of Amanda doing 'Creep' by herself, but at least there's something.....

"Blah blah blah blah Beth is fat blah blah blah"

Can we stop the fat jokes before they start?

(or did I just start it?)

Brooklyn Vegan has a modern day emperor's new clothes. This is dreadful shit. Honestly, utter garbage. The scene is eating itself and you're along for the ride. Strip away the site gags and you're left with a horrible rendition of a song too mainstream to be interesting but not mainstream enough to be ironic. They covered this song on fucking Rock Star Supernova. Christ.

i'm sorry but this cover is getting way too much attention, it's really not good at all. The song plays so much better with the quiet-loud-quiet dynamic, and it's drained of all of that in this version. Not to mention both of these girls are novelty acts.

Yeah, she is fat and I like it anything else you'd like to say besides the obvious? Duh.
