Worse... you get to PARTY with him. You know, most of the best parties I go to are thrown by my friends who've just had their marriages and careers explode simultaneously and publicly, and spent the subsequent month or so being constantly mocked and derided while taking care of kids whose mom is busily going completely bonkers. I mean, maybe someone who really hates the guy wants to be there when he overdoses or something. If this is an attempt at career rehabilitation, it's a weird one.

That would have been a show from The Acoustic Vaudeville tour. I believe Patton Oswald was the comedian. >It's been interesting seeing her sort of come out of her shell over the years. I first saw her touring for "Whatever" and back then she was pretty reserved. Over the years, she's gotten more comfortable on stage and now seems happy interacting with the fans. She's quite cynical with a great dry sense of humour. One of the recent shows she was joking about reading a Rolling Stone interview with Tom Cruise. Cruise was challenging the interviewer to ask anything he wanted about scientology as neither Cruise nor the scientologists have *anything* to hide. "Bring it!" said Tom to the interviewer. Aimee was really amused by Tom's ferocity. So during the show, Aimee sort of turned it into an ongoing bit with the "bring it!" catchphrase; the audience was yelling "bring it!" when she would announce the next song. Hmmm, do I have to say you probably had to be there? I first saw her in Feb of 1996 touring for "I'm With Stupid". She was funny and quick with a sharp retort when someone requested a Madonna song, as if having a brother in law that was once married to Madonna entitled her to be familiar with Madonna's songs. I saw her again touring for "Batchelor No.2". She was lucky to make it to the show as her tour van flipped over 3 times on the way to Ann Arbor from Chicago after being forced off the road by a drunken driver. She gutted it out and still gave a nice performance. However, she more or less boycotted tour stopping in Michigan after that until last year. I'm not a big fan of her last couple of albums, so I skipped the show. I also had a chance to see her in Chicago in June of 2005, but choose to make the road trip to Chicago and see the Go-Betweens instead. Wise choice considering that Grant passed away 11 months later. >Michael Penn bugs me for no logical reason. Aimee and Mr. Brion would make a much better pop power couple. Never liked MP either or bothered to get any of his albums. Jules Shear and Aimee were THE pop power couple around 1986-87. Pretty messy break up though as documented in TT's "Everything's Different Now" and followed up by the Jules Shear/Marty Wilson-Piper response,"The Third Party".

Though entirely appropriate as a lulluby for a child. Apparently he read the words in a music book and added them to his song. The part I really find the most touching is the beginning, where he sings, "Once there was a way to get back homewards", knowing that Paul's mother died when he was a teenager. Oh I'm getting verklempt! Here's an Eb-style musical challenge which I found on the Crooks and Liars site today. There's a video of George Harrison and Paul Simon singing duets. One is Here Comes the Sun, and the other is Homeward Bound. The question posed at the website is: "Your challenge-if you choose to accept it-is to find two performers that you would like to see do covers of each other's signature songs. Or, alternatively, who would you like to see do a duet together, and what song would you like to see them do?" http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/03/18/cls-late-nite-music-club-with-paul-simon-and-george-harrison/ And since the digests are coming in at an alarming rate these days, I won't even try to predict what number this one will be posted in, though I managed to squeeze onto the 100th digest.

That's a stumper. Although I know it would *not* be a duet. I don't like duets (let's not go near "Dark Green Energy.") Perhaps start by colouring inside the lines...say RH vs. Bowie but not necessarily signature songs? Off the top of my head, I would really love to hear Robyn do "SweetThing...Candidate...Sweet Thing (reprise).
