Adam Mercury Rising

I am not a huge Queen fan, I like the hits but at the time all the operatic stuff dragged me and today the metal overtones make me a little shruggy. As for Adam Lambert, with gratness within his grasp he has yet to actually grap it. But together, it should be a thrilling performance this Thursday at MSG. Ad I didn’t mention Freddie Mercury once.

Wednesday- De La Soul – Irving Plaza – Perhaps the single most taleneted posse of the early 1990s in a tiny room, should kill it

And that’s it… last week I couldn’t get a night in, this week it is deader than Elvis. I’ve heard of the dog days of summer but this is ridiculous
