Sweetwater 3/17 Storm Large

[Rickypt]

Storm Large is the BOMB

I liked her a lot on RS Supernova, but her live performance is out of this world. Tremendous vocal range, fierce storytelling, tremendous stage presence. On TV, I found her theatrics to be tired and "Broadway"-like, but they work perfectly on stage.

I swear, check this woman out if she comes anywhere near you. I'm going again this Thursday to her SF performance. My only complaint: why can't these clubs have more seats? I'm too old to stand for 4+ hours of opening acts, etc.

BTW, Storm did some great covers. All reworked and very clever. Hate to compare to Stevie, but I was thinking how Stevie covers "Rock and Roll" but really does nothing to make it her own, whereas Storm took these following songs and totally claimed them:

White Wedding
Missionary Man
Take A Chance On Me/Dancing Queen (I kid you not)
Tainted Love
Happy Together


P.S. Hi jade, hi goldenbraid.
