Please check every now and then as we are adding more dates.Team Cho wishes you all the best of Holidays and a fabulous New Year.
Her competition (but it's an honor just to be nomin-- fuck that noise, I'm rooting for her) for that Best Comedy Album Grammy, according to VirginMegaMagazine, are:
- A Life In Comedy, Garrison Keillor
- Poodle Hat, "Weird Al" Yankovic
- Shut Up, You F***ing Baby! , David Cross
- Team Leader, George Lopez
Go Cho!
Update: Mark.
NPR : Commentary: Gay Marriage:Comedian Margaret Cho has this commentary in support of gay marriage. She thinks gay people should be allowed all the outlandish marriage ceremonies that straight couples claim as their right, such as drive-through ceremonies in Las Vegas.
Total, predictable mark.
Update: Almost totally unrelated, except for my equally disturbing obsession with Margo Timmins, but there's too damned many entries today, and it's starting to worry me.
Signing up for the Cowboy Junkies mailing list, after getting this forward through Ecto:
We are a little (ok, a lot) late with our Junk Store Holiday Sale this year. We wanted to build the sale around our latest internet-only release, but there have been all sorts of delays in getting parts from our licensor in the UK. Anyways, the new CD is in, just in time for those post-Holiday-blues.
We have licensed a couple of early 1990's live recordings from Strange Fruit / BBC Records. This is the same company who put together the Radio One Sessions cd that we released last year. This cd is comprised of music from two concerts that were recorded by the BBC during The Caution Horses tour (1990) and the Black Eyed Man tour (1992) of the UK. They are beautiful sounding recordings of two excellent concerts. The disc is entitled In The Time Before Llamas and you can find out more info about it on our site at: http://www.cowboyjunkies.com/exclusives/llamas/index.html
The cd is only available in North America through our website and we are selling it for CND$15. You can go directly to the disc in the Junk Store by going to: http://www.maplemusic.com/product.asp\?dept_id=2&pf_id=01-106
Which brings me to our Holiday Special -- for a limited time you can buy In The Time Before Llamas and Waltz Across America (our internet only release of live recordings from our 1999 - 2000 tour of North America) for the bargain basement bonanza price of CDN$25 (which is about US$20). Think of the hours of fun comparing concerts -- or, if you already own Waltz Across America you can give it away to that special someone that you will inadvertently piss off over the holidays...think of it as a cheap -- I'm Sorry -- gift. The link for the bundled special is: http://www.maplemusic.com/product.asp\?dept_id=2&pf_id=01-107
All you North Americans should be aware that if you want to get the disc before Christmas Day and you want to use the more affordable surface mail you will have to get your order in before December 11th. For anyone outside of North America we have unfortunately missed the cut off date for guaranteed delivery before Xmas. But, as I said, we could all use a little post-Holiday music to bring us just a little further down. You can check out all of the Holiday shipping deadlines at: http://www.canadapost.ca/business/dec/send/deliveryschedule-e.asp
In other news -- .we have just finished mixing all of the songs for our new CD and are in the process of choosing which songs to go with and in what order. The album is tentatively titled One Soul Now and we are aiming for a world-wide June 2004 release. Which will mean will be seeing a lot of you out there next Summer.
Have a great holiday season and keep safe -- we'll be in touch.
Margo, Michael, Peter and Alan
Oh, and for once, the answer isn't 42.
It's 17.
If I did the maths right. . .
Hmm. Worked for Margo. . .
