Is Ida Maria a mess or merely a rock star?

shana
I've totally loved Ida Maria both times I saw her live this year, and her album is among my top favorite so far of 2009. I like to see a singer who blows me away, who screams and shrieks and sings and plays her heart out. It’s an extra awesome bonus when she’s a woman, and not a stick-thin indie ingenue, and is a little messy and very sexy and shamelessly more than a little drunk.

It’s never all that cool for a musician to bail on a set, not because they’re too coked out to sing or just bored and belligerent. But rockers are fuck-ups, almost by definition, and generally a crowd of dudes will cheer on another dude who’s pounding beers on stage or taking shots offered by the audience between songs. Is Ida hitting the glass ceiling of bad behavior? Or is she really that much of a mess?

What do you think?

    • She's an effing Rock Star. Period. Read the lyrics to "Queen of the World" - 10 Shades of Rock Star. Also, "Keep Me Warm" is to die for!

      Watching her perform - I want to throw my panties at her - I would never but I have the FEELING to do such a thing. And I think she's the first female performer to make me want to do that :)

    • I definitely think it's a bit of both. She definitely sounds to be a bit of a mess, but then a lot of rock stars are. I think as long as she's showing up to gigs it's not so bad. There is nothing worse than buying tickets and the day of the concert it gets cancelled for "unknown" reasons. right.
