Hope this is allowed here?

Here's a really cool article in The Guardian today on Shirley Manson from the band Garbage (my favourite band, and Shirl is an absolute goddess!)

She talks about being a music icon, misogyny and hip replacements..... and they have a new album out!!

I've always loved her no bullshit down to earth approach to life ๐Ÿค˜

Also, it's really weird, but nice having an icon from my youth talking about things like hip replacements, I still think of her (and myself) as being in our 20's and indestructible, when we're now both older, peri and post menopausal, and still rocking out

I'm hoping they tour, I missed the last one

Anyone else her love Shirley and Garbage? Or PJ Harvey, Bjork, Tori?

She's got a fantastic style and attitude, I still covet being ginger because of her!

I think I have most of Toris early albums, Little Earthquakes was such a definitive album for 'the pour your heart and soul out confessional' such a brutal and beautiful record!

I also love her DIY approach to pianos, how she dismantles and rebuilds them to get them to do just what she wants musically, got to love a woman who can do creative demolition

Yep and she was breaking a massive taboo talking about rape. It was HUGE
