Throwing Muses going on tour (dates)

Throwing Muses

Kristin Hersh is presenting a live performance of Paradoxical Undresing at Bumbershoot in Seattle this September. According to Bumbershoot's site:

This solo spoken word and musical performance draws from Hersh's acclaimed memoir of life as a teenager wrestling with issues of mental illness, creativity, teenage pregnancy, and the pressures of sudden fame. Combining film, music, and scripted excerpts from the book, the show is an intense, moving, and original experience.
You can purchase the book on Amazon.

In October and November Kristin will tour internationally as part of Throwing Muses, who reunited in 2009. That tour will bring the band to NYC on October 16 at Bowery Ballroom. Tickets for the NYC show go on sale Thursday (9/1) at noon.

All dates and a video of Kristin performing at a Paradoxical Undressing show in 2008...

there's a difference between a meme and just running a bad joke into the ground, 5:15

Amen 5:34. So sick of that shitty attempt at humor.

5:34 and 6:16

you two are either the same poster, or are poseurs who should be lovers. you would be the ugliest couple around

She sucks. If she hates the music so much, why is she touring? Hypocritical whore.

7:18 is a complete fucking idiot. Or Lauren Hill. Or both. Try reading the actual article before spouting your mouth off, tard.

Posted by Anonymous | August 30, 2011 8:03 PM

get a fucking life

10:44 - you will never be 45

Posted by Anonymous | August 31, 2011 10:34 AM

At 45 you will still be seeing matt & kim. And girl talk.

Readers don't need to see travel dates spelled out. A band's itinerary shouldn't be cut and pasted with no fine-tuning.
