I don't know much about praying

But I feel the need for a prayer.

np: Lisa Germano, Geek the Girl, if you don't catch the reference. And if so, you're probably reading the wrong web site.

Further expanding on this point:

Tori Amos, Welcome to Sunny Florida. Own it today on DVD!

Sugar high. Sorry.

If you're not looking to lay out cash, free Innocence Mission for download at Amazon.com Music. Where it's been for quite some time, but I only noticed it today, because I suck.

Note to the Irresistably Cute Lisa: They're playing Northampton on May 29th, if you'll be there then.

Also on the tour tip, the trigger-happy mother fuckin' Cowboy Junkies will be playing Skyline Stage at Navy Pier on July 18th. Click the name of the band for yet more dates, but you'll have to scroll down a bit if you don't live in Far Far Away. Like Germany. Or Belgium. Or the Netherlands. Or Canada.

And if you don't want to leave home, we gots somethin' for that.

Gretchen Wilson will be featured on the following TV shows:

• Wed. 5/26: Gretchen will perform on CBS' "ACM Awards"
• Wed. 6/2: Gretchen will perform "Redneck Woman" on The Today Show. Please check your local listings.

This is not a music blog, by the bye.
