How? Because I had on birkies. It couldn't be the way I walked because I had jammed a toe moving to seminary and was limping. Whatever else I had on (undoubtedly a skirt and polo top or tshirt because it was NYC and hot), and my braid wouldn't have automatically screamed lesbian. But she and a friend were watching all the new seminarians to see if they were 'family' or not. And they identified me before I really had for myself.<BR/><BR/>[I have the IG albums from the late 1980s.]Caminantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16610142955176992982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538801849812784311.post-2065251620992763702007-11-25T14:44:00.000-08:002007-11-25T14:44:00.000-08:00why the hell would someone hate the indigo girls? ...why the hell would someone hate the indigo girls? they give a soundtrack to our lives. lovely post.LittleMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06178617028863825445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538801849812784311.post-38704355616140288172007-11-22T17:06:00.000-08:002007-11-22T17:06:00.000-08:00You know one of them is the daughter of a clergyma...You know one of them is the daughter of a clergyman/ theologian, right?

I can't do a steady diet of it - - sometimes I need music that isn't so deep, and is just fun. I've met Emily, and hope to meet Amy someday. Luckily, living where I do, one is occasionally presented with the opportunity of bumping into them on the street. :)Suzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03529580138314011952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538801849812784311.post-45016237897810525782007-11-20T12:07:00.000-08:002007-11-20T12:07:00.000-08:00CeciliaI don't know who MadPriest is or what he/sh...Cecilia<BR/><BR/>I don't know who MadPriest is or what he/she said about Emily and Amy, but I'll stand in their defense right along with you.

Their music has helped many people, female and male, gay and straight "get through" whatever. I used to belong to a group that traded their music (b-sides, outfakes, recorded shows and the like). There were stories after stories of peoples love for them and their music! Musically their range is so diverse. You can't match how they touch someone emotionally.<BR/>Sidenote: if you want some b-side/tour stuff let me know!Catt.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07417005690599299484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538801849812784311.post-33785164303957816042007-11-20T06:50:00.000-08:002007-11-20T06:50:00.000-08:00Been there, still love them too.
