Fiona Apple

Fiona and I grew up in a small town outside Kingston, Jamaica. Her uncle Max Romeo and my third cousin Bunny Wailer used to like to play "freeze tag" in the next neighborhood. Well, this one day...

Again, I'm just making things up. This was taken just a few minutes before a show at the 9:30 Club in the late 90s. My friend Dave Rubin* knocked on her door for me because I was scared, and we got a couple of shots in the dressing room doorway, where I've shot many a face.

I'd just like to say that if anyone feels like sending me a copy of the original version of the Extraordinary Machine sessions, it might make me want to do something nice for them. I love the mixes I've heard and would love to have them to listen to. I'm just sayin'.

Or is it Ruben? Sorry Dave. I'm bad with namespelling. And how are you, by the way?

shiiiet, i haven't been to the 9:30 club since femi kuti played last summer. but in the early 90's, i was a frequenter at the black cat. anyhoo, love all your polaroid shots. i used to have this old polaroid land camera i found at a thrift store. the bulbs even worked. when that died, i upgraded it to a captiva but now i can't find it! *sigh* last polaroid i took was one of me and the singer of SOJA. i ended up tearing it to pieces when i ended our friendship. dude turned out to be such a douche. my bro had a funny polaroid of dave grohl he gave me, but i lost it...it seems i have a knack for misplacing things, as well as long winded comments.

i think i have the songs that came out on torrents before the cd came out, if that's what you mean.. i'm pretty sure i have them all on a cd. i personally like them much better than the finished products.

I love Fiona. She's real, in a world where some of the most "popular" female singers are Britneys or Jessicas. The songs are meaningful, intelligent, beautifully arranged, powerful, and perfectly performed.

Plus, yeah, she's beautiful, even if she now tries to fight against it a bit.
