    A month before this in Dec 93..The Imago records person was at the Phoenix show in a club...
    She invited me and a few others to go on the bus after the show..
    Aimee looked a bit put off as if she was being forced to do this meet and greet with fans...
    She signed my WHATEVER shirt "To My Love God"
    During the show I kept screaming for "Ive Had It" and her face really looked like she didnt wanna do it...
    At the very end she finally gave in..man that was some experience...
    I was 23 and that day I had just arrived in Phoenix from Ca. where I had seen her play The Coach House ..i think it was called.
    I was actually moving to Phoenix and had no idea she was gonna be there..i just picked up a paper when I got into town and was shocked to find that Id get to see her again only a few days after the Ca. show.
    Thats my story..

    It's been nearly 30 (god) years, but I had the peculiar experience at the time of its release of hearing and loving this epic breakup album from the perspective of the one breaking up. It didn't deter me. I knew there would be a time I would be in Aimee's shoes. I was, about 3 years later. Beautiful album, one of the tops all time.

    Saw her in Munhall PA a few months ago. Aimee Mann, Andy Partridge, Kirsty McColl, and Elvis Costello are the greatest lyricists of the later 20th/early 21st centuries.

    What a great song. It takes me back to my college days in 1993-94 and a beautiful girl who broke my heart. But this song always made me feel just that little bit better!
    I love Aimee's songs and wish she'd play live in the UK-Ireland more often. She is hugely underrated as a songwriter.

But then when she realized I was in fact a fan she was so humble & cool& she was happy I recognized her 🥰- of course not one co worker around me - knew who she was - they were all like 20 something and listened to garbage music lol I was like OMG THAT WAS Aimee Mann!!

      Yes! And one night several years ago, at a little club in LA called Largo, she was taking requests, I yelled out “Stupid Thing! It’s the best song ever!” She laughed “Stupid Thing it is, for the woman who said it’s the best song ever!” She said she hadn’t played it in years. I cried! She sings it regularly now.
