Cybergrrl
Lilith Fair
by Aliza
August 19th, 1998

2:45pm - Small press conference. Got to ask another of my group questions, "When did music first enter your life and what was the first album you bought?" ...Amanda Kravat, one of the Village stage performers, said that she was supposed to be playing Tsaichovsky (sp) while practicing the piano but found a Beatles songbook and played that instead. Her first album was the Monkees and she and her sister would take turns kissing the album cover.

3:55pm (Village Stage) - Amanda Kravat takes the stage with a fiery red tangle of curls and a long, lean body behind her acoustic guitar (and an ever-present cigarette between her fingers, then her lips). She is accompanied by a keyboardist as she shouts and sings in her breathy, raspy voice. Her between-song banter is playful, such as when she talked about the last time she played Milwaukee: She remembers playing on a pier and everyone began throwing fish. She told the audience today that they can throw fruit and vegetables, but to please not throw fish because she hates fish.
