Amanda Palmer is a chart with "Evelyn Evelyn"


Amanda Palmer had a variety of concerts in recent years: singer, songwriter, punk cabaret "piano-killer" and the living statue, among them.

Now you can add the graphic novel on the list.

Palmer is the co-author with fellow musician Jason Webley Evelyn Evelyn, a hardcover book from Dark Horse Comics comic book stores Wednesday, and available in bookstores and Amazon 4th October. Cynthia Buhler Beautifully illustrated, tells the comic novel, the story of two sisters, Eva and Lynn combined Neville.

PLUS: Watch a preview of the graphic novel by Evelyn Evelyn His life was a series of unfortunate events, starting with the birth of an Airstream trailer in Kansas, 11 September 1985, which is followed by rapid death of both parents. Overall, the orphans are not help but try to live a better life, whether it happens anyway in a production environment, house of ill repute, or to find the loss of his best friends - a pair of Siamese elephants succumb to death, 11 September 2001.

It is an artistic attitude, which on that fateful day and is a symbol of how the girls' Keep The Faith "in a way that the struggles they encounter.

"You have the face of terror, held by the two girls, but it's a simple beauty of the way they always together, so it's worth," said Palmer. ". Is a matter of deep reflection, as these two souls who work almost exclusively, to put the couple in a sense, they are paradoxical in the human, our greatest fear and greatest desire. Be fully known for another".
Later, the Neville brothers success as the musical duo Evelyn Evelyn, headquartered in Walla Walla, Washington brothers - whose musical influences are Joy Division, Sisters Andrews and Jesus Christ Superstar have actually released two albums and made the whole of the world. (To be in concert that also happen to be very similar, their producers, Palmer and Webley. It's almost as if they were the same people.)

Palmer said it was "a wonderful chicken and egg" with the story of the twins' self-titled album last year and the book of the same name. "Music in the file is so visual and theatrical, and the cries of a solid book."

At first glance, the graphic novel almost as a children's book, until you see the topic and saw blood. The fa? Ade was intentional, but as a symbol of the twins with wide-eyed innocence amid the tragedy that surrounds them.

"I do not think children's books or children's books and are very dark and gloomy. I mean, look at fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm," or, uh, stuff by Neil Gaiman, "said Palmer, who married Gaiman comic symbol at the beginning of this year.

"The kids love the dark twisted things - in fact, I think you could say they only need to tell parents to read this book to your children, not to explain some of the more adult jokes.".

Gaiman adds an epilogue to Evelyn Evelyn, and mentioned how she Webley, who with his future wife four years ago by e-mail. Webley and Palmer met with more "poetic," she said, played the accordion at the Adelaide Fringe Festival in Australia in 2000 and played as a living statue "The Bride of eight feet" on the road.

"We all knew immediately that they were soul mates from the start," says Palmer.

Apart from the fact that to maintain it, and grab the audience's attention, Palmer has not much similarity between the writing of a graphic novel and works as a musician or a living statue.

"The hardest thing - and I think Jason and Cynthia deserve much credit - not to alter the visual perspective of history, the images are to be kept flat and repetitive," he said.

Originally from Massachusetts, Palmer was a fan of comics since I discovered a dirty teenager Julie Doucet was first series chartplotter.

"I never saw a woman brutally honest and funny about sex and life," says Palmer. "I am a big fan of Hans Rickheit, one of the geniuses of the comic world underestimated.
"And Neil Gaiman is man, they are not so bad. Honestly, I read slowly and Sandman is a great pleasure." (His favorite so far is the fifth collection, one set by you).

Seeing the graphic novel was completed just for them, but there's still nothing compared with the opening of the live album A crash is The Dresden Dolls, a duo of Brian Viglione punk cabaret in 2003.

"Getting the first Dresden Dolls CD printer was something I hoped for 25 years," he said. "It's not just the expectations in the category, but it was still impressive to say to be with Jason and see and able." This is because we have "

Webley Palmer took the twins and recently in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August, but there are no plans for a new album or tour Evelyn Evelyn. Webley said Palmer is going to take a break from the road and take the preparation for a new solo album. In addition, she and Gaiman's own tour in November.

So it may take a while to draw attention to the sisters who are celebrating their 26th Anniversary was a few weeks ago to pay.

"She stayed at home in Walla Walla, actually. Do not go far," says Palmer. "Jason and I had an ice cream cake delivered to your home with a Twix bar special crumble. They were very happy."

Papelbon blows save, Evan Longoria goes yard in minutes: Tampa Bay, Boston in playoffs


With the American League wild card in the balance, Boston clung to a thin lead of the night, wasted opportunities to expand at a later date. Tampa Bay seemed drawn 7-0 in a moment there, that was in Boston, to survive the disastrous September. Tampa Bay has come to the end to tie to go with six runs in the bottom of the eighth and the binding in the ninth inning in extra innings against the Yankees.

However, the Rays at the top of the 12 with the Yankees runners at the corners have been, while the Red Sox went to the lead end of the ninth with a one-run. But it seemed that Boston, in the worst case, get an extension. Papelbon had the first two outputs (so that the rays came from the top of the round without a race), then pull back doubles in the Orioles, followed by Robert Andino Thurs win alone.

Three minutes later, Evan Longoria, who earlier hit a three-run homer before kick-start for the race and cut the wound is still fresh in Boston wide with a spectacular home in the left foul pole run garden Tampa Bay in the playoffs to send Superb.
