Alison Moyet, one of my favs from the 80s but has released some amazing CDs over the last several years such as Hometown, Voice and her latest The Turn (released in the US in July 08 and by the way is a fucking awesome album) is doing her first US tour in who knows.  Seattle made the list.  No pre-tickets available yet, but her site has her listed for Oct 29th at The Moore.  God I hope this doesn't get canceled.  I can't wait.
