Does she dress like she does in those pictures above?  If she does, I'll go see The New Pornographers to see Neko!

I'm with you onOkkervil.  I don't always make it for the opener, but was glad I did this time.  Saw the guitarist (who wore his guitar up about as high as his pecs!) at the bar as New Pornos started and told him I appreciated their set a lot.
 
 I'm not in love with the New Pornos that way some folks are -- I mean, I have the albums, listen to them, enjoy them.  They've never blown me away live, but it's an enjoyable show.  I'm way psyched that I caught the Neko show...she was great, there's no question her voice is special (I was at the show where the cousin, who had a bad cold, filled in -- not good).  Neko did NOT look like those photos even a little bit.    :D    Maybe it's cuz she'd been sick and was injured.  Yeah, yeah, that's it.

He's actually not in Okkervil River, but just on this tour because their guitarist's wife recently had a baby.  Charles Bissell from the Wrens was playing guitar.

Or because those photos are 10 years old.  :)
 
 Anyhow, Neko's now left the tour, so I guess Kathryn (niece, not cousin) will be filling in again. Hopefully she doesn't get sick.

Yeah, I guess we're lucky that we even got her for one night.  http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/page/news/50054-neko-case-hurts-foot-leaves-new-pornographers-tour
 And she kept saying she didn't break her ankle.

Without any pictures on page 3 of this thread I doubt I'll keep checking in on it.

Man oh Man, I knew I knew him.  I almost said to one of my friends, "that guy looks like he's from the Wrens."  You see, I knew awesomeness even when I wasn't sure....
