Week 29
Sports: Tim Howard is 35 years old and sports, soccer, is more or less a young man’s game, but the Manchester United goalie from New Jersey who carried the USA team past the UK for one and Italy for another, may prove capable of doing what Pele couldn’t 40 years ago, with that in mind, US ball clubs should through mountains of money at the man so he can singlehandedly turn the US onto, dare I call it, football.
Personal: My well loved niece and sometime rock nyc scribe Louba Lababedi Podniesinski and her husband Michael Podniesinski are now the proud parents of a born on the fourth of July Yankee Doodle Dandy baby boy James .
Live: A quiet week, Teddy Afro at Summerstage was my only show. But next week? Monday Buble, Wednesday Katy Perry, Friday Jigga and Bey, Saturday 4Knots and Ab Soul!
Recorded: Ab Soul (though I think it was released a week earlier) owned the week in my books. The last bit not the least of the Black Hippy posse.
National News: So President Obama is the worst President ever? Really? I wonder what the poll is like ten years from now.
