[sherlyn's note: this message was originally sent to the indigo
girls mailing list at netspace.org.]

this article is from this week's southern voice (http://www.southernvoice.com)

dish: june 22, 2000

for weeks we'd heard the rumors, but on tuesday we got the official word. the
atlanta ballet has booked the indigo girls for "a unique evening of ballet
and rock" in its 2000-2001 season. the indigo girls will collaborate on and
appear live in a world premiere piece to be presented as part of a three-work
program at the fox theater march 15-18.

"we are all thrilled," said john mcfall, artistic director. "the reason this
is so significant is that the indigo girls, emily and amy, are voices of our
time, and they are consummate artists. the undercurrent of what we're about
is engagement and participation. i think this collaboration brings a dynamic
to the process that is full of vitality and imagination."

given that the girls are openly lesbian and very political, it's not hard to
imagine that some conservative patrons might object to their appearing with
the ballet. but mcfall doesn't seem worried: "it's not our endeavor to upset
anyone," said mcfall. "we are all here to get together. let's celebrate our
community. the atlanta ballet is privileged to participate in this
collaboration with these two wonderful artists."

in addition to the indigo girls' appearance, the ballet's new season includes
a world premiere production of "romeo & juliet," "peter pan," and the holiday
non-subscription run of "nutcracker." telephone 404-892-3303 to subscribe.

_________________

* michelle played on these.

they added two songs sometime before shame on you:

1. chickenman ( oh this was wonderful!)
2. ghost ( loved that too

i don't recall if michelle malone played on chickenman, i know she
wasn't doing ghost.

the audience was wonderful to ig, but you could tell most were not
familiar with michelle,
and shannon........although shannon really rocks!!

i loved michelle malone, her voice is a powerhouse, and i just love
accoustic  music.
oh and faye tucker was in response to george w. bush  for executing
shaka sankofa
(aka gary graham.  last night, to the end he proclaimed his
innocense..his dying words "i didn't do it.")  the song rocked  and i
loved
amy's  wicked and crazy laugh.

[...]

peace everyone

from mtv online at
http://www.mtv.com/sendme.tin?page=/news/headlines/000623/story4.html:

sara lee collabs with ani difranco on solo lp

with an impressive list of credits spanning nearly twenty years, veteran
bassist sara lee will make her debut as a solo artist with "make it
beautiful," an album due from ani difranco's righteous babe records on
september 1.

lee, whose resume includes work with difranco, the b-52's, gang of four,
robert fripp, robyn hitchcock, fiona apple, and indigo girls, recently spoke
with mtv news about her leap into life as a solo artist.

[...]

some other well-known names contributed lyrics to lee's songs, some of whom
she had previously played bass for.

"[indigo girl] emily saliers wrote one," lee said. "ani did two, actually.
pal shazar did four songs, barbara gogan from the passions wrote a song for
me. kristen hall contributed; she wrote a big hit song worldwide called 'let
it rain' for amanda marshall.

rh is awsome. well worth the price of the cd.
