That's what it says here. And the She in question is the model turn singer turned actress and back again since the 1980s infinitum. And the place the maneater is gonna be is Roseland on October 27th, 2012. A Saturday where we can watch her change clothes (not in front of us apparently) over and over again, while she belts out all the hits that have made she shiver in subjugation to the wonder and beauty and grace of Grace. "Nipple To The Bottle", "Slave To The Beat", : "Warm Leatherette"… the list is long.
I interviewed Grace back in 1981 and loved her, she was a real sweet heart though rumor has it I may have found her on a good day. The Jamaican Goddess of funk doesn't suffer fools lightly, though I had been listening to her for a coupla years by then and was well schooled in all things Jonesy.
More than I can say in 2012, where last years Hurricane was OK but not the same… if you know what I mean.
Doesn't mean I won't be at Roseland Saturday October 27th, though I won't be coughing up the $500 plus for the VIP Ultra meet and greet.
