Well, I finally saw Delirium (4-29-06, Charlotte) and I had great seats on the floor six rows back. Let me start with a disclaimer that I love Cirque Du Soliel. I’ve seen:Ka (3x Vegas)Allegria (3x, 2xBiloxi, Miami)Mystere (2x Vegas)O (1x Vegas)Verekai (1x Miami)Drallion (1x Miami)Quidam (1x London)Journey of Man (film, 1x)La Nouba (2x Orlando) And, […]
First, I must say Queen are still a force to be reckoned with — let nobody say otherwise. After seeing this concert, I will fight anyone who says otherwise. Now that we have that away. They performed Friday 3 March 2006 at Miami, the opening date of their first US concert tour in over 20 […]
Yeah, I finally saw Happy Feet. I saw the preview some time ago and thought it looked stupid. I didn’t really want to see it. But a funny thing happened on the way to the forum. Everyone who did see it, told me they liked it or loved it. Sure, they all thought it got […]
I originally saw this play on 2 August 2005, and I have been trying to find my original review since then, but it seems to have gone AWOL along with my entire list archive for that trip (and also my review of the Proms, etc). So for this review, I’m going to have to skip […]
Here’s my review of last night’s Billy Joel concert. He’s sold out two shows here, something he always did when used to perform regularly — in fact standing room only seats were sold at the Bank Atlantic Center, which is rarely done here. This show was 1-7 and the next is coming up next week […]
This is a retro-post. I put this online 24 December 2005 using the date it was originally sent out. This isn’t the type of film I normally see. But it looked interesting to me, and it’s getting press as one of the best films of the year. It finally opened in Miami this weekend in […]
This is a retro-post. I put this online 24 December 2005 using the date it was originally sent out. My review of “AI” — the Kubrick film as interpreted by Steven Spielberg. Rest assured that there are NO SPOILERS in this review. I guess I must start by saying I went out of my way […]
I often write movie reviews, concert reviews, and theatre reviews and I’ve not been good about getting them out except to a few people here and there, so I’ve decided to do some retroactive posts. I will add them all into my blog with the original date they were posted. These posts will be clearly […]
This is a retro-post. I put this online 24 December 2005 using the date it was originally sent out. First, if you’ve read the book this review will be Spoiler Free. If you haven’t read the book you may want to skip this until you’ve seen the film. Secondly, I last read this book over […]
This was a banner weekend for audio and video. First, I finally bought and listened to Green Day’s American Idiot . It’s fantastic through and through. Not your usual Green Day, but it’s just amazing. Not only does it (literally) rock, it’s got a great deal to say. I recommend this album to everyone who […]
