Jackson, MS - Hal & Mal's

Played a show at Hal & Mal's in Jackson, Mississippi. Actually, it was a wonderful audience. And I stayed with beautiful people. Great experience. But here's a picture of our competitors, an awesome blue grass band in the next room. Can't compete with blue grass in the south. LOL

The bass player was flirtin pretty hard with me. A cute charmin' drunkin' blue grass boy. Man. Welcome to the south Athena. It's like being in another country! Cowboys n' cowgirls breaking wild & free from strict codes. Then kneeling on the church on Sunday, cleansing their hearts of mama bread guilt.

But we had a small, yet devoted group of art-lovers at the show. And I got some honest and loving Southern hospitality. And I probably gained 5 pounds in the south. But I'm not supposed to care about that right? As a feminist? I guess I'll go to the radical church this Sunday, and pray for forgiveness of my indulgent patricarchal sins.

But honestly, the South, overal, was difficult for me. I am such a contraversy there. There are always people who are incredibly loyal and loving. But there are always people who HATE me too! I think they think I am the anti-christ or something. I felt like calling out, "God gave us a clit for a reason people! Don't blame me for wanting to 'F#ck All Day!". LOL
