Kristin Hersh performing at the Sydney Festival.

Not an event that I would have ordinarily selected, her performance was candid, wry and certainly vivid (where’s my foot?) as she spoke about stories of her life growing up or with her band The Throwing Muses and interjected it with various pieces of music.

Eclectic but certainly enjoyable.

Can I also say "Bravo" to Festival organisers this year in having a decent alcoholic beverage supplier. Little Creatures, Rogers and Pipsqueak for the win.
