Difranco revels in the energy of her enthusiastic crowds; she feeds off of it. This album proves that, as much as we may love her studio work, Difranco is, in essence, a live performer. Only when she is on stage in front of a mass of adoring fans can she truly achieve her full potential, and when she does, it is well worth listening...
...fight. A while back, he got a positive reaction when he showed a rough cut of the film to his sponsors at Miramax Films in New York. The date of that screening was Sept. 10, 2001.

For once, they forgo the vitriol and embrace a lighter sound and feel...
Since much of Heartbreaker is marked by sparse and deflated instrumentation, Adams’ solo performances weren’t noticeable departures from the studio versions. Fulsome, resonant vocals gave flesh to his otherwise skeletal songs. And despite self-indictments of having smoked “too much pot,” Adams’ playing was nothing short of graceful. That’s not to say, of course, that silly shenanigans were in short supply. Carefully poised between center stage and Adams’ guitar amplifier was a tweed-clad phonograph, which he called upon several times during...
