I went and saw Jeremy Enigk last night, June 11, 2008 at the Cafe du Nord and it was much better than I expected. I guess I didn’t really know what to expect because I had heard some rumors that he had found religion or something of that sort. Well, he was quite the entertainer. His guitar style is sort of classical and his voice is quite different than most singers - a mix of like Rod Stewart, John Lennon and Baby Huie (or some cartoon character - I don’t mean that as an insult, it’s actually very intense). He also played piano on a few songs and he impressed me as a fairly accomplished pianist. All and all it was a cool show, though I didn’t really dig a lot of his newer songs and I also didn’t really dig the audience (of course, I was one of them). That is all.
