well, that was was quite a crowd divider of a gig. many left unimpressed with Chan's lack of disipline on stage but mnay also felt personally touched by her raw honesty. I fall into the latter catagory! I've never been to a gig in which the artist in focus connected so naturally with the audience, its a pity a few people at the back did not appreciate this. Up untill that point, the atomosphere was like that of a relaxed party where someone (in this case Cat Power!) just casually picks up a guitar and goes through some beautiful songs at their own pace. And in the whole spirit of her latest musical episode, she granted everyone permission to leave at anytime if they didn't like her.
I thought it was wonderful and was one of the presumptious ones that leaped up on stage and followed her back (eager for more after the bloody 10pm curfew). Must praise the bouncer too, who was cool and didn't try to nanny Chan too much, and let so many of us into the backstage "cabin" to mingle!
Thank you for a memorable night.
Go Chan, you are free!
