Avril on iTunes

Written by Eric Olsen
Published July 16, 2003

The only way to get the new Avril Lavigne live EP is through iTunes:

    The cuts, "Sk8er Boi," "Nobody's Fool," "Unwanted, "Losing Grip" and a cover of Green Day's "Basket Case" were recorded on March 23 in Dublin. Fans can purchase individual tracks for 99 cents or the full EP for $4.95.

    Lavigne recently completed her Try to Shut Me Up world tour, which will be chronicled with "My World," a concert CD and DVD due Sept. 29 from Arista. Beyond live performances, the DVD will sport "backstage and on-the-road shenanigans with Avril and her band, as well as opening acts who took part in the tour," according to Lavigne's official Web site [Billboard]

. Avril does not seem like the typical iTunes demographic artist, but it shows how important the service has become in a short period of time.

Won't the first person to do this just make them available on Kazaa immediately anyway? Or are they protected? I don't see how Avril has time to put out a live ep anyway, what with her having to be on the phone to Liz Phair constantly, asking for her sound back.

Um, I'm 31 years old, I own an iMac and have purchased albums from the iTunes Music Store, and recently I purchased Avril's Let Go album. Aside from the lamentable "Sk8er Boi," it seems to be pretty good, actually.

But maybe I'm weird.

Avril live? Have you ever heard her live? Just for three seconds? It's unbearable. Nobody wants to spend 99cents on this. Aside from the fact that this is neither rock nor punk, but pop, she can't hit one right note. It hurts, physically.
