PHAIR ENOUGH

“Well, Liz,” says UMe boss Bruce Resnikoff to acclaimed, Grammy-nominated artist/songwriter Liz Phair on the occasion of her self-titled 2003 album being certified gold, “congratulations on this milestone. I remember when this album was first covered in HITS—remember that rag? I wonder what those idiots are up to now.” Seen still recovering from the trauma of dealing with us in the first place are (l-r) UMe’s Mattie Darden, Tom Smith, Jason Feinberg and Resnikoff; manager Sophie McNeil, UMe’s Jane Gowen, manager Joel Mark, Phair and manager Peter Katsis. Phair’s full-band Amps on the Lawn Tour kicks off in the fall.
