2006-11-03 @ Hiro Ballroom, New York, NY review: > I've seen Mary Timony perform in every phase of her career from The Dirt of Luck onward with the exception of her tour for The Golden Dove, and in all of that time and in all of those shows, this was the first time that I've ever seen an audience nearly unanimous in their enthusiasm for her music. You could sort of tell that she was surprised and maybe a bit confused at first, but by the middle of the set, she was smiling and slightly talkative, which is maybe of out of the ordinary, at least in the context of the seven or eight shows I've seen her play in DC and NYC since 1995. Of course, Mary deserved the audience that she had Friday night, and not simply out of goodwill for her back catalog. Aside from playing "Silence" and "Backwards/Forwards" from Ex Hex, she and her new band focused on new songs presumably written for forthcoming KRS debut, which ought to be pretty fantastic judging by this set. Even more so than on Ex Hex, her new compositions highlight her talent as a guitarist with melodic, sprawling guitar jams that rival the recent work of Stephen Malkmus and Sonic Youth.
