upcoming event and spoken word performance

http://www.theroyal.to/films/lydia-lunch-sick-desire/

WATCH OUT, she's a mean ol thing!

I'd love to see Lydia.

I'll be there. I adventured it to Montreal on my birthday to see teenage jesus. This time I need to only adventure a few blocks. I'd be an idiot not to go

She never tickled my fancy.

Why doesn't she come to Vancouver?

I noticed this and was wondering about it, does anybody know what this "sick with desire" deal is about?

she interests me a little, though she is kind of an moron/hypocrite sometimes...i just can't bring myself to pay 30 bucks to see someone talk for an hour? (if thats all it is?)

Yep, ended up going

Lydia's looking rough

really? I thought she was looking better than she did at the Teenage Jesus reunion show where Thurston played bass

I haven't seen any recent pics of her, this is the first one I've seen since maybe around 2000, so...

yeaahhhhhhhhh you might be right then

I prefer Brydia Brunch, at dinner time.

Tour with Genesis P-Orridge?

I have no respect for that individual.

must spread some rep around before giving it to pbradley again..

needless to say you got me twice today :D:D:D

I was there last night as well. If performance art is to effect by the degree in which it shocks and cajolues than she succeded.

Did I digest everything she said? No. I wish i did. It was hard to retain. Was I left with nothing to say. Yes. Sort of speechless. I bough the book and by luck much of her performance is in Will Work for Drugs.

I still haven't formulated an opinion on her art or perspective.

cool that you were there too!

I was listening to her earlier. I've come to the conclusion that she's just a bit crap. Unbearably gorgeous (at times), but generally crap.

I wouldn't say so. (she's just a bit crap.) I agree that she omits a sexual energy thats really hard to deny. Magnetic.

However, there is not one iota of flakiness in that woman. I really dislike the male bashing, but everything she says she means. In terms of essence or conviction, I can hardly imagine a performer who put forth more than her.

Apparently this performance is coming to DVD.

cajoules? does that measure resistance across a gap?
