...apparently I've not told this story before? Huh. So! The story of how Kat came to s00j!
( Not immediately relevant to the point of the post, but maybe fun to read )
And so round-about Balticon 2009, I received my first SJ Tucker album and started listening to it, and to her, and for six and a half years I simply haven't stopped. I call her a goddess and it is not that much a joke. I have written an awful gawdamn lot about how much she means to me, not all of which has wound up in this journal.
So, here's the offer: The first twelve1 people to comment on this post, and tell me which album they want, will receive a digital copy of one of s00j's albums. If you wanna go listen on Bandcamp first, you can: it's all right here. I will probably overpay a bit for the albums, that's okay. She's worth it.
All I ask for you in return is that you make some time in your life to actually listen to whatever I send you. You don't have to love her like I do --you don't have to love her at all. But I think she's amazing, and I want you to give her a chance.
( But Kat! I have no idea which album I would like, and listening is for people with time! Can't you tell me which disc to pick? )
Boy howdy, that is like two thousand words. I am serious when I say she owns me like no other musician.
Anyways, yes, iffen you would like one of her albums please please comment! I have a very slight preference towards people who haven't heard her before, but even if you have and you just can't afford another of her albums at the moment, drop me a line.
She's worth your consideration.

MOOP!
1: It was originally going to be ten, but I like the echo here.
2: This is true! At Balticon '12, when she was music GoH, she played Cheshire Kitten and some others from mischief and then sold out of the CDs before I could get one. Bethany was all "well, I guess I could give you the tracks..." so I went to s00j at her table and handed her a twenty and asked if it was okay to just get them from a friend like that. Last year, probably at NYFF, I bought an actual copy because damnit, sometimes you just want physical media that you can hold in your hands and play in the car.
(This means that I have all of Mischief in my email as well, meaning I have access to it virtually anywhere I have an internet or phone connection. Excellent!)
3: THEY ANNOUNCED ON TWITTER THE OTHER DAY THAT THEY'RE WORKING ON THE SECOND AND OHEMMGEE SO EXCITED!!!!!
4: Smothered and covered hashbrowns for the first person to correctly identify the other one. Let me tell you, it's just about the DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSITE song to Goddess.
