Liz Phair Horror Stories: A Memoir

[@WeCastMusic]

Liz Phair is and has ALWAYS been amazing.

[@TMarieKrupa]

Liz Phair-I came late to her music. I was in my late 30s. What blows me away, is that she is so much more sexy, in the best most empowering ways, than any other writer of rock and roll. She is so in touch with intimacy, in all its guises. She blows me away. She is the real deal. I listen to her every day. I can't get "Little Digger" out of my head, as a mother and a daughter.

[@WhatsCookingTime]

I've always found that so attractive about her her honesty just her being herself highly intelligent woman beautiful of course but she doesn't involve herself with so-called stardom and such

[@movieedge7370]

Liz Phair still looks amazing ❤️🔥

I met Liz three times and each time we played thumb war. I’m winning 2 to 1.

Liz thanks 4 the button. U hose r...

[@mediocrates5233]

What a waste that I never really paid much attention to Liz back in the 90's like I should have. Discovering her now fills me with melancholy but... better late than never! I probably wouldn't have understood her as well as I can now anyway.

[@rogertheartfuldodger]

Brother, I am here, a year after you...and in the same frame of mind. I have her music on in the background and wondering how I could have missed her.

[@jerrygarcia4390]

Yup

[@getstew]

Same boat...

[@joealberti7762]

I was fortunate. I was in my early thirties when the Chicago scene hit and lived just 60 miles away from Chicago. Saw all the local bands...Material Issue, Smashing Pumpkins, Urge Overkill, Liz Phair,and others. Phair put on a great show. Actually got to meet her once through a friend of my then gf whose boyfriend played in a few local Chicago bands (that's a mouthful lol). I believe I said "so nice to meet you" and she replied "likewise".

[@NOLAgenX]

I remember hearing word of mouth about her and hearing a snippet of Never Said. I bought the cassette and have followed her ever since. She fueled my growing desire for true independent rock music. I'm eclectic, liking nearly all music, but she opened up another appreciation door for me.

[@I_Have_The_Most_Japanese_Music]

I recently discovered Japan (the country). You need to check that scene out.

[@garythompson5316]

@@I_Have_The_Most_Japanese_Music what’s going on with the Japanese scene? I remember getting into the Libertines and they toured Japan about 15 years ago. The crowds were incredible!!

[@I_Have_The_Most_Japanese_Music]

@@garythompson5316 There's a saying, "We wrote their constitution but they didn't really understand it," but music they absolutely GET. Pretty much anything you're into they're doing it and well. Acres of all-girl punk bands to avant garde experimental music. Here's some stuff I like: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2aXmI2NoqyphaM kzbin.info/www/bejne/nX-tf36cpNp3edE kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2KnonSFdt1lqrc kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2K2f5Z9rsx8h9E kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKDRo5muqrdkaMk kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3Srqml-Z7Z3e7s kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJquiYiMZdF_eK8

Beauty,brains,total package!!🌹👍

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

She hasn't aged at all. Still beautiful

[@chadmoodybto4620]

I still remember the day I bought Exile in Guyville at the Tower records in Tacoma. Masterpiece. I've always loved her. Amazing talent, remarkable woman.

[@nymike06]

Liz is wonderful! Very proud of her success.

[@andrewwilliams9599]

Dear Ms. Phair: Your music has saved lives. I have no doubt of that/.

[@Whippets]

People often and easily throw around words like smart, edgy, creative, soulful, and thoughtful when describing artists ... but in the case of Liz Phair, it's truly appropriate.

[@eduardovenegas6413]

.....smart and beautiful....love you Liz....

[@miniaturesculptureartby23r20]

I must be weird- I can live my life just enjoying the songs without knowing. :D

[@panbandits]

Liz an ageless beauty . amazing woman .

[@yournamehere6002]

[@1982Dawg]

"It seemed to me that the music industry was filled with gamblers, thieves and pimps." That checks with what the late Hunter S. Thompson said: "It is a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason. There's also a negative side."

The film introduces Liz Reynolds, a young woman whose psychic bond to Mike Pearson...

Who's the dude? Very good jock.

[@daveguy11]

Still a minx.

[@soundsbetterslowed]

😊

[@David-ew1cb]

I respect her as an artist and breaking barriers but as a fellow Midwestern we dont need to plump our feathers were not new York or Los Angeles artist do just fine maybe not celebrity status but chicago is good

[@adriancrutch]

From scanning your output...you seem to push your sexuality to sell your product...then complain about the atmosphere you had to endure is a little complicit in your vision from your "shell"...but that's the money part of the music business...Bravo! Sail on...

[@escherita]

Yeah she should just own the fact that she's sexually explicit and not try to hide it behind the me-too slogan

[@WhatsCookingTime]

I don't see her pushing a sexuality anymore than any woman she's a lot more than just that

[@adriancrutch]

@@WhatsCookingTime You are "missing" the hypocritical edge she seems to justify in the interview...some people never "grow" as musicians...I just didn't see the boundaries people said she was pushing...sounded a little contrived to me as a musician and songwriter myself...as she herself claims that she learned guitar and the "ropes" on the fly...and like I said... more power to her!!!

[@miltoncat]

@@adriancrutchit is “wrong” to use “quotes” “for” emphasis.

[@adriancrutch]

@@miltoncat "WHATEVER" & "BORING"...

[@constans4]

Apparently her move to what passes as "pop" wrecked her career, at least for her "indie rock" fans. But frankly what is considered her "best" music is a lot of boring self-involved BS to me, and that is true of most of her peers (at least to me), and today's "music" goes in one ear and out the other; it's worse than what some people used to call "elevator music" because it puts people in a bad mood (of course there is some truth to the saying "feeling good about feeling bad." It says a lot of the self-involvement of the current audience that they consider such music "great." I actually find the 2003 stuff that Phair recorded that a lot of people found a "betrayal" listenable, but that before and after it boring, depressing and forgettable. Why do you think that even today's films and television ads, when they need music for a certain "feel," seem to find it from 60s, 70s and 80s so often?

[@miltoncat]

“Quotes” are not “meant” for “emphasis”.

In Islam girls are told to protect their modesty because if not, it will lead to what you invite.

(dude - work on your introductions)

[@mjf8897]

holy shit - also - you have to respect your interviewee - wtf is this? this interview is what happens when you just write the questions down and go with it - here's a tip - TRY THEM OUT ON SOMEONE FIRST to see if the questions land

[@joejones9520]

the creaky voice is a trip...

[@j.jester7821]

I like her music. The feminazi Patriarchy talk is sickenging though.
