Lisa Miller

Regret is such a powerful emotion - is it even an emotion? Well it was regret that filled my heart as I stood in the Spanish Club last weekend, nodding to my buddies, as I tried to convince them I was listening to their inane conversations about their working weeks, but all the while, I was training my good ear (the right one) towards the stage, where Lisa Miller performed.

I'd seen her perfom very briefly at The Forum a month or two back during the Comedy Festival, as she filled a gap in the taping of Rock Wiz, and this was my first opportunity to catch her in a full show (well as full as a supporting spot can be I guess).

And Lisa did not disappoint.

But why regret? Well, it was with regret that I had not seen her perform before - in a word, she is fabulous.

The salubrious Shane O'Mara helped proceedings along, with his sensational guitar work, and between the entire ensemble, Lisa & her band transported us from light into shade, and back again.

If Lisa comes to your town, go. And take your mum - she'd love it too...
