Comfort of Strangers:
Beth Orton Concert

March 17, 2006

Have I not yet mentioned that on Monday night we went to see Beth Orton at the Variety Playhouse? It is funny how ideas pile up.. much like the books and magazines here in our apartment. Her poster is now on our refrigerator.

She mostly played songs from her most recent album Comfort of Strangers, although there were also two acoustic interludes where she sang a selection of songs from her several previous albums. The concert was wonderful, and some of the songs took off.. I only wished she had given them a little more length. It seemed like they came and then they were gone.
