""The moth don't care if the flame is real
'coz flame and moth got a sweetheart deal,
and nothing fuels a good flirtation
like need and anger and desperation."
~The Moth

Aimee Mann gives a great feel good concert with cool creative appeal. She gets you into a relaxing rhythmic groove and keeps you addicted right to the last song, then she gives you more.

The DVD reveals how Aimee Mann keeps her connection with the audience on a human level. She never seems distant and even defends her love of boxing. As we can now see, she gave her the next album she talks about twice, a different name.

Songs: The Moth, Calling It Quits, Sugarcoated, Going Through the Motions, Humpty Dumpty, Amateur, Wise Up, Save Me, Stupid Thing, Pavlov's Bell, Long Shot, 4th of July, Red Vines, Invisible Ink...and more. The DVD features interviews with the band and a slide show set to music.

I first heard "The Moth" on her Lost in Space album and loved seeing this song performed live. Her lyrics appeal to my analytical side and the moods are rich with atmospherics to leave me feeling dreamy. As she sings on a stage awash in a moonlight glow, you can't help wishing you had attended this concert.
