Beck Plays Surprise Opening Set For Beth Orton
"Beck, Beth. Beth, Beck."
That was probably how the introductions went on Tuesday night
before Beck played a surprise opening set for Beth Orton's show at
the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles.
Orton's publicists confirm that the uber avant gardist did indeed jump
onstage at the El Rey and perform several songs from his recent
disc, "Mutations," a record that Beck has sued Geffen Records for
releasing (see "Beck Sues Label For Copyright Infringement").
Billed as "Silverlake Menza," Beck borrowed a
guitar and harmonica from Orton and belted out
"Tropicalia," "Nobody's Fault But My Own,"
"Cold Brains," and "Lazy Flies."
As for Orton, the folky torchsinger will be in
Vancouver, British Columbia today to help Lilith
Fair kick off its final outing. Orton will stay on
the female music fest for the next two weeks, wrapping up her stint
on July 17 at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles.

Orton Centralized," an MTV Online Feature.

love is often an excuse, although sometimes these excuses are all
we have to hold onto,
death is the reason and living is the celebration
