News The Lilith Fair is Coming to Portland
Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Thu, Jan 21, 2010 at 10:32 AM
This news makes me want to wear a summer dress, over jeans, and twirl, twirl, twirl—the Lilith Fair is headed to Portland! But this isn't your mother's Lilith Fair. This means that Paula Cole is not playing, sorry.
Instead, the newly named 2010 Lilith Tour has a pretty solid lineup. Here's a partial list:
A Fine Frenzy, Ann Atomic, Ash Koley, Beth Orton, Brandi Carlile, Butterfly Boucher, Cat Power, Ceci Bastida, Chairlift, Chantal Kreviazuk, Colbie Caillat, Corinne Bailey Rae, Donna Delory, Elizaveta, Emmylou Harris, Erin McCarley, Erykah Badu, Frazey Ford, Gossip, Grace Potter and The Nocturnals, Heart, Ima, Indigo Girls, Ingrid Michaelson, Janelle Monae, Jennifer Knapp, Jill Hennessy, Jill Scott, Julia Othmer, Kate Nash Katzenjammer, Ke$ha, La Roux, Lights, Lissie, Loretta Lynn, Marina & The Diamonds, Mary J. Blige, Meaghan Smith, Melissa McClelland, Metric, Miranda Lambert, Missy Higgins, Nneka, Norah Jones, Priscilla Renea, Rosie Thomas, Sara Bareilles, Sarah McLachlan, Serena Ryder, Sheryl Crow, Sia, Sugarland, Susan Justice, Tara MacLean, Tegan and Sara, Toby Lightman, Vedera, Vita Chambers, The Submarines, The Weepies, Ximena Sarinana, Zee Avi
The Coal Miner's Daughter, Cat Power, and Janelle Monae? Wow. The Portland date and venue have yet to be announced, but we'll keep you update.

It's been 10 years since Darkbuster released their song "Lilith Fair" and the lyrics still ring true:
"They've got Susan Vega and Sheryl Crow
But that's still not enough to make me want to go
Even if those women were all in their underwear
I wouldn't want to to to see the Lilith Fair"
"They've got Susan Vega and Sheryl Crow
But that's still not enough to make me want to go
Even if those women were all in their underwear
I wouldn't want to to to see the Lilith Fair"
