Glasto Blasto

The Glastonbury festival was a blast. Or for some, a blast from the past. At least there was a little bit more sunshine this year.

One particular favorite of ours is the amazing KT Tunstall, who played last Friday on the Pyramid Stage, despite falling rain. Read the review here.

There’s some great KT clips on YouTube…Thankx to eezlewax for the great Tubes!


KT Tunstall “Hold On”

Happy Birthday Paul McCartney

One of my favorite artists is 66 years old as of today. Composer, singer, songwriter, musician, MBE, former Beatle and Wing Sir James Paul McCartney.

Born June 18th, 1942, he is listed in Guinness World Records as the most successful musician and composer in popular music history. No doubt with 60 gold records and sales of 100 million singles. Plus he’s got the most covered song in history “Yesterday,” which was his first “solo” record with The Beatles.

Triple DVD Set Captures Genesis Reunion

I can’t recall seeing any concert event this big since Woodstock, which was “half a million strong,” remember? Well, 500,000 fans saw Genesis play a free, open-air concert in Rome’s historic Circo Massimo last July. It was at the end of their European tour after playing to one-and-a-half million fans.

The entire two-and-a-half-hour concert is captured on a new 3-DVD set that’s available today. “When In Rome 2007″ contains the hits like “Land Of Confusion” and “Mama,” plus the good ol’ classic Genesis songs like “Los Endos,” “Carpet Crawlers” and “Ripples.” There’s also photo galleries, deleted scenes and a documentary look behind the scenes at life on the road with Genesis, who hasn’t toured in 15 years.
