One of my favorite live shows of last year was actually a two-fer that totalled six sets of music: Former Throwing Muses bandmates, and stepsisters, Tanya Donelly (who also fronted Belly, and helped start the Breeders) and Kristin Hersh (who's also in 50 Foot Wave) played two gigs at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, Mass., and the shows included a solo set from each along with a truly special team-up on a batch of older TM faves. If you've been reading the 'Nac for any length of time, you know that the Muses own space in a warm little corner of my heart, so I'll spare you any maudlin reflections and get to the songs. First up: The 6pm show, with Tanya and Kristin's first solo sets of the day, along with their first collaborative set. Next Monday I'll be sharing the entire 9PM second show. And writing out this next bit might make it seem more real: This Friday I'll be a humble fly on the studio wall when Kristin Hersh and Throwing Muses drummer David Narcizo get together to record a few songs. I'll have my laptop with me and will be, barring any schedule changes or technical difficulties, liveblogging the afternoon, with words, photos, maybe even a little audio and video. Hopefully I'll just grab a seat, get the heck outta their way, and be able to share this rare experience with fellow fans. So, yes, it's a Muses-heavy week here on the 'Nac. Enjoy this first fix, and come back Friday and next Monday for much more...
