Madonnaโs first tour started 40 years ago today at our Paramount Theatre. I saw two of the three shows. I was sure she was going to rule the world before seeing these shows. They confirmed it. I thought they were hysterical. Oh yeah...we had a โletโs record the show for posterityโ phase

The second โfirstโ Rush album was released 50 years ago today. They were far from โHey baby, itโs a quarter to eightโ on this one and everything going forward.

Better Man was tremendous. Itโs the best biopic and best musical of the season (sorry Bob, Elpheba, and Galinda). It was moving, entertaining, and crazy in the best way. Does it matter if you donโt know who Robbie Williams is? No. Thatโs why we go to movies, to learn about people we donโt know.

Happy birthday to the magnificent Mike Scott
Jimmy Somerville put out his first solo record 35 years ago today. The formula was familiar: dance songs, a cover of a disco classic, a healthy dose of in-your-face politics, and a voice spun from pure gold. Familiar but good.

Itโs probably my 12th favorite Madonna album & itโs also 40 years old today. Happy birthday to Like a Virgin. I saw the first date of The Virgin tour, and still have the bootleg cassette we made of the show laying around somewhere.
