So, Neko Case starts her tour today in support of the phenmomenal Fox Confessor Brings the Flood (review), and while there are dates for months (all over the world) - there are none for San Francisco. Why is this, Ms. Case? Someone named Will Benham would like an answer.
::MP3::
"If You Knew" (live), Neko Case
In more pleasant Neko news, she has a new video for the lovely "Maybe Sparrow"...

Many of us would like answers, Mr Benham. Calgary is also not on the list, although the Winnipeg Folk Festival was listed in ChartAttack as having attracted Neko Case this year. Winnipeg! (I can diss it because I grew up there).
Plus she missed the Calgary date with the New Pornographers. Something is dreadfully dreadfully wrong here.
It's a sad day, Barbara. Also, I think Carl Newman is way way awesome, but can they really call themselves the New Pornographers without Case AND Dan Bejar.
And what about England ? Just one date in London ? Do we smell ?
Btw have you seen The Go! Team yet Will ?
I went to see an L.A band called The Like a week or so ago. Good all girl Indie/Pop outfit.
I see, she's got a thing against we bloggers.
April 27 I believe on the Go! Team.
Yeah, I think one of the Like is the daughter of Elvis Costello's drummer. I remember they were handing out buttons and promoting themselves a few years back at a Rilo Kiley show I went to.
Thanks for the Neko video, Will. Sadly that's about as close as some of us seem to be getting to seeing her any time soon. Phlegmfatale is going to see her in Austin and she says there are lots of tickets left. Shall we all meet up there?
Good question about the rapidly depleting New Pornographers; at what point do they cease to be... pornographers?
That would be fun. Hillary is going to be in Austin a month later - sadly, by that point Ms. Case will be in Sweden, where I really, really want to go.
I want to go to Iceland or Finland.
I've never heard of Neko Case, but that video is awesome! Her voice is enchanting.
I am so hopeful that she will add some SF dates!
Iceland and Finland seem like nice places to travel. Phoenix, I cannot reccomend Neko highly enough. Hillary, would it be ok to tell Neko she is welcome to stay with us if that is an issue. Heck, she could play in our living room.
That would be 100% OK with me. Make sure she isn't allergic to cats, though. I know Ivie would love her company.
