Brass in Pocket - Voice on Tape

So do I, honey...so do I. Image ripped from Jimmy's blog.

If St. Louisans feel so inclined to travel into the suburban hinterlands, you can rock out to Ashlee Simpson's pre-recorded song-stylings at the Family Arena in St. Charles county tonight!

Now, don't let the name of the place fool you.

Even though the Lifeway Christian Convention (which boasts, "dynamic messages, soul-stirring music and a 1,000 voice choir presenting the famous musical Celebrate Life") is headed to the Family Arena soon - I've seen Joan Jett there....and a couple of other shows, too. But I was real drunk at those shows and don't remember who or what I saw. Except a lotta mullets - worn without irony.

But I clearly remember Joan Jett (kind of).

Speaking of forgetting, I'm sure that the Post's Kevin Johnson would like to forget the hardest sentence a pop-music critic has ever had to write:

Simpson says her favorite part of the show is when she covers pop and rock legends such as Madonna ("Burning Up"), Debbie Harry ("Call Me") and Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders ("Brass in Pocket").

Sadly enough, I won't be at tonight's show. I'm planning on doing something more enjoyable like pulling off my toenails with pliers and eating them.
