if you get a chance to see ingrid michealson live, take it, and invite me too.

saturday night i went to see ingrid michaelson, and it was amazing! not only did she sound fantastic live, she was also really funny and got the crowd involved in a lot of her songs. the show was originally supposed to be at this new venue in charlottesville called 'the southern' but it wasn't finished in time, and so got moved to a place called 'fry springs beach club'... which is basically a giant pool house. it was the sort of place where you would hold a middle school dance, and like ingrid said she 'felt like she was playing at a summer camp' but the place was packed and so it worked out really well. i also appreciated that the ukulele was her instrument of choice on many of the songs. here's a little video clip, but it's not very good and doesn't do the show justice at all. if i was videoing it meant that i couldn't dance and sing....so you can guess which one i chose. this song just always makes me think of WM senior year, so here it is- (well the beginning part at least)
