...appropriate to their favorite raging Ani DiFranco song. They may know all the words, but how hard do such fans really listen? The same kids who cheered a girl who screamed "FUCK THEM!" in the middle of "Little Plastic Castle" ("People talk/About my image/Like I come in two dimensions/Like lipstick is a sign of my declining mind/Like what I happen to be wearing/The day that someone takes a picture/Is my new statement for all of womankind") later talked through her songs as if she were, a hologram on display, while she sang not ten feet away...
