Of course...
But bagpipes anyway

Well, we all know what she's like with new instruments. The piano for white chalk and I know she's been going mental for the autoharp too.

Don't encourage this please. She might go all Jonathan Davis on us.

Oh as long as there's bagpipes....

what's with the bagpipes adoration olivier ??

Just a joke... but I do occasionally like to listen to bagpipes (for a minute).
And I would be delighted to watch Polly play bagpipes!!!

at this point, I'd be happy if she played the spoons, so long as she's giving us something!

*sigh* 6 months to go...

I hope she does a live version of 50 Foot Queenie with special bagpipe solo!

Apparently she wrote most of the songs on autoharp, which is pretty interesting. Lots of different possibilities there. I don't mind if she doesn't rock out every time, as long as she's not turning into Joanna Newsom.

Yes, less piano and more autotharp would be good.

I'm glad she'll have a band this time also since she has to do more venues to support that, but I suspect that means we won't get "chatty Polly". Note how she reverted to her old stage behavior (a few thank you's here and there) during the AWAMWB tour. The chattiness during the WC tour was apparently an anomaly.

And a nice one I might say... When I saw her at the Hay-On-Wye festival, she was so chatty and funny, it was wonderful!
But I also wanted to see her perform with a band, which I've never seen, so if it's confirmed that she will tour with a band, then I'm glad too

Oh, God, I don't even know what to say

Early 2011 will be when I die from excitement and shock. New PJ AND FIONA APPLE albums.

^ I KNOW RIGHT. If things don't go as planned I'll freak.
