Inconsistent Indigo Girls still deliver

By Sarah Rubenstein | April 27, 1998

The Indigo Girls continued their Shaming of the Sun tour on Friday night with an incredible performance for an electrified audience at Leede arena. The duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers, opened the concert with "It's Alright," an up-beat song from their most recent album, titled "Shaming of the Sun." They followed "It's Alright" with "Joking," from their less recent "Rites of Passage" album. Both of the first two tunes were anti-climactic, because the Indigo Girls did not put enough energy into them.

To be fair, there have been signs of hope here and there, most noticeably from Courtney Cox's end.
