I went to see Ani DiFranco on Monday.
I was really into her in the late '90s, but haven't really been following her much since then. Anyway, she was excellent! Just a small venue, with just her and a guitar, but that really suits her style of music anyway. She sounded great, had a good mix of old and new material and great banter with the audience.
The audience were quite rude in parts though. Basically, she has a huge lesbo following as she's openly bisexual (as in, one of the few actual bisexuals that doesn't use it as a stepping stone to full-on dykedom), but she's been married (to a bloke) with a kid for a few years now.
Basically, when she got all political and pro-abortion, or sang about her relationships with women, the mainly lesbian crowd went mental, but if she mentioned/sang about her husband and kid, she was met with stony silence.
Stupid, millitant, hairy-armpitted, wife-beater-wearing dykes.
