From one lady to another: If you always pee after amorous entanglements, you won't need the cranberry juice.

Hey Amanda! Ok So I think I have a topic for you. Can you please back me up when I say that saving yourself for your first concert should be special? I mean i know it sounds corny but seriously i'm saving myself for you, cuz i cannot WAIT to finally see a REAL artist who i actually PAY for all of her music instead of just downloading it for free cuz it's hip and in the now. Also on that note my reasons for you to pop my Concert Cherry! :-D lol is because my boyfriend and best friend dont understand your music and your metaphors and i think its all fucking brilliant! But in a way i kinda like being the only one who loves your music...it makes me feel like i have a deeper connection to a musical genius that nobody can share.. lol i sound so dorky. Anyway if there is anyway i can help out you let me know, i would love to help out a talented person whenever it indeed is possible.

:-D

Did you know cranberry actually loses it's antibacterial properties as soon as sugar is introduced? Better off with freeze-dried cranberry! I suggest the stuff from Mountain Rose Herbs: http://www.mountainroseherb...
They are a great company!

Also, d'aaw Neil making midnight cranberry juice trips. :)

Dear Amanda, you are love. I live in a radical feminist lesbian/ bi/ poly/ hippy/ vegan/ environmentalist normal body haired artist maenad bacchae household and we are all much enamoured of you and Neil.

Assuming you are using the cranberry juice for purposes similar to the nasty antibiotic-needing event, I can tell you from working with pregnant women (where the urethra is effectively shortened and it's easier to get UTIs) that the active ingredient in cranberry that helps with infection is d-mannose, it works by preventing bacteria from adhering to the lining of the bladder. Also in cranberry juice, especially sweetened cranberry juice are sugars that will feed the bacteria and cause them to multiply - so if possible get straight d-mannose minus the cranberry, it's sold in powered form. I'm in Australia and couldn't find it anywhere and so shipped it from New Zealand but I think in the US you can get it from most pharmacies. This is assuming that the UTI is caused by E-Coli; if it's another organism D-Mannose won't be as effective. It's worth looking into anyway.. hope you feel better.

We are in Melbourne and hope that when you come to Melbourne later this year many beach ninja parties will ensue.. we will bring vegan cupcakes. And bodypaint!

'Fact: musicians nowadays are expected to be accessible. discuss.
?"
OK
I think with the emergence of the internet allowing everyday folk to peer into others lives, be it musicians and other randomly famous people, that there is a weird, "I know you already" thing going on. So it might not be that people expect you to be accessible, but feel there is a connection - for lack of better word - that makes them more at ease than they would of been 5 years ago to interact in that way...
Orrrrr - Twitter has just made everyone think everyone else will tell them anything they want to know. I am sure its one of those. If it does not make sense, put yourself in a Sunday morning mind frame and it all should be good.

I second June_Miller when she says "YOU'RE KICKING IT WITH ADAM (motherfucking) SAVAGE. OH MY GOD AWESOME. (Though Jamie's my personal favorite. I love the curmudgeons.)"

Seriously. AFP is in the Mythbusters studio! Does this get any cooler? Not much... though it'd be entirely too wicked if you randomly managed to spend time with Ariellah (dark fusion bellydancer... actually, I believe I mentioned her in my comment on your last blog post xD) while you were in SF. Damn I need to move out there, it seems to be the place to be! Must get in to Stanford, must get in to Stanford *goes into trance repeating this mantra*

Anyway, the pie looks delicious, I hope you enjoyed it! (from the looks of it, you did ;) Google sounds... epic. To say the least.

Warmest regards and all sorts of best wishes for the rest of your trip-- can't wait for the next blog! -Greta

I think it's amazing how amazing people seem to flock together. Amanda Fucking Palmer + Neil Gaiman + Adam Savage = incredible triple awesome package bonus combo! Now all you have to do is meet Noel Fielding and it'll all be complete!

PS: I'm so happy you've discovered the magic of the Boosh. Maybe you could cover some of their songs! ^-^
