I would’ve been interested in seeing Jessica Says on the weekend. I read that she is the girl who was pulled up on stage with Belle & Sebastian at Melbourne’s Palais Theatre and sang the female lead of Lazy Line Painter Jane (not to be confused with the hottie who got up on stage to dance with Stuart and Stevie at Belle & Sebastian’s Thebby show – you know, the one who’s parents are massive Ramones fans).
