“Recovery is something that’s very close to my heart. I wouldn’t be standing here if it wasn’t for recovery. I’m a sober alcoholic for 26 years… When I can do my job and help someone else, it’s the icing on the cake.” - KATEY SAGAL accepts a PRISM Award for her performance in Sons of Anarchy in the “Performance in a Drama Series- Substance Use” category.

I saw her in Kansas City on Thursday night and she was so charming and interactive with the crowd, her live vocals are just as fantastic as you hear on her recorded songs, her dancing is the cutest thing, and I got to meet her (but let’s not even get into that or I will never stop talking about it). Anyway, here are some videos from the “An Evening of Music and the Cast of Sons of Anarchy” mini-tour (ps. the videos from Minneapolis are the better ones):

While the show, about a biker gang, sees Katey Sagal out-numbered by men, she credits it for helping grace television with stronger female roles for older women. “This country is so hell-bent on being young. I grew up in a household where it was all about respecting our elders and knowing more the older we get. What’s great about cable television is that it’s allowed creators to create something that - surprise, surprise - has a lot of women of an older age. They’ve lived longer, they’re interesting and viable. It’s opening up better parts for women of my age.” [x]
Q: Who would you like to see June with the most?
Ally Walker: You mean like in a relationship? Well, I think that’s kind of obvious, don’t you? Jax. No. I don’t know. He’s awfully sexy. But you know, I think Katey Sagal’s pretty hot, too… Katey and I are good buddies, so it’s been a real pleasure for me to get to work with her. [x]
