Tig Notaro - Live (Sc25 Edition)

For the 25th Anniversary of Secretly Canadian they have pressed up favourites, rarities and deep cut albums on limited vinyl. Live features Tig's legendary Largo set, performed earlier this past summer. The day before this set, Tig was diagnosed with cancer in both breasts. This news was the bookend to an agonizing year in which Tig spent weeks in the hospital battling an intestinal bacteria infection. A week after being released from the hospital, her mother unexpectedly died. Then, in the middle of it all, her relationship fell apart. Which leads us here. Tig's 30 minute set is not much more than an open-mic set in that it's half scripted, raw and real. It's an insightful detailing of her assessing a horrible set of circumstances in a calm, clever and clear manner.
