Thanks.

Also I've seen Neco Case mentioned a few times, I've heard a lot about her but have no clue as to what she sounds like. What's her writing like, is she comparable to anyone?
 
Neko Case just played here recently and at the time I didn't know anything about her but since then I've heard so much good stuff, I'm sorry I didn't go see her. We don't get much good live music here so it sucks when I miss something good, especially due to ignorance. :huh:
