This song is hypnotizing. Plus I totally appreciate the fact that she plays a NYLON-stringed acoustic...
Can I just reiterate how pissed I am that I missed her in concert not once, but TWICE...at the Black Cat and 9:30 club. I need to stay more up to date on good music! >:o

jigger:
"1.5-ounce shot glass," 1836, from jigger, a 1756 alteration of chigger "tiny mite or flea" (q.v.). As a name for various appliances, it is attested from 1825, from jig (q.v.).

A jigger is that little silver two-ended shot glass type thingie that bartenders use. Sorry, my definition is not as awesome as reymono's!
