Seeing The Cowboy Junkies play at the Ports 1961 Spring/Summer 2009 show! Nobody knew it was coming. Close your eyes and picture the scene. Fashion crowd filing in, celebs getting their pics taken, photographers setting up on the riser. Only one thing out of the ordinary - a mic and three chairs onstage. The lights dim, the Tensa-Barriers go up (leaving the very late Elle creative Joe Zee to watch from the sidelines - heh heh). Three figures appear, backlit, indistinguishable. Two men tune instruments, a raven-haired woman sits. Over the loudspeaker: "Ladies and gentleman, The Cowboy Junkies." The lights go up, the crowd erupts. They play a four song set including "Blue Moon," "Misguided Angel," and the Velvet Underground classic "Sweet Jane." I obviously couldn't take my eyes off of them, which is why Sabrina is writing the runway review for this one.
