Remember a few weeks ago when TMT reported that ’90s goddess Liz Phair was going to be performing her classic album, Exile In Guyville, in its entirety? (TMT News) Well, it turns out that the Hiro Ballroom in New York City isn’t the only lucky venue that’s being graced with Phair’s presence, as she just announced last week that dates have been added in Chicago and San Francisco.
All of this exciting news is of course due to the fact that Exile In Guyville is being reissued June 24 on CD, vinyl, and in digital format from ATO Records. The special reissue package will include three never-before-released songs from the original recording sessions: “Ant in Alaska,” with Phair simply accompanying herself on guitar, “Say You,” which features Phair and a full band, and an untitled instrumental with Phair on guitar.
She has also just completed a new, 80-minute DVD, Guyville Redux, for the reissue. The DVD examines the male-dominated indie rock scene in early-’90s Chicago, including interviews with Gerard Cosloy and Chris Lombardi of Matador Records, engineer Steve Albini, Ira Glass of NPR’s “This American Life,” and John Cusack among others!
So what are those dates again?
