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?
