AMERYKAHN RHETORIC

"We don't need a new president.  We need a new system."

Liberty R&B and Jazz Festival 2008

ARETHAIRATION

 

"I was looking at the prices of tickets to this show, and I'm sure these people didn't pay that much money to listen to this squeaky noise, and certainly neither do I."

For 125 bucks for a Club Liberty Platinum, I sure deserved a r-e-s-p-e-c-t-able performance.

LIberty R&B and Jazz Festival 2008

TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STARS

This teeny weeny singing sensation from Manila had caught the attention of E! and Ellen alike. Jennifer Hudson's enormity would be blown away by the sheer power of this girl's voice.

This girl, on the other hand, had wowed Brandy so much to merit a PDdA - public display of dark armpits.

IN THE COMPANY OF THE GREATS

A very happy birthday indeed.

SEPTEMBER HORN

I mean sax, not sex.  Though I should get that too.

TONE DEFT

T-7 days and counting.

GIVE ME LIBERTY AND GIVE ME JAZZ

It's that time of year again.

After a hugely successful initial outing, the premier musical event of summer promises to be a day and night of entertainment.  The festival set against a backdrop of the New York skyline and the Statue of LIberty brings a roster of leading jazz artists topbilled by legendary guitarist and vocalist George Benson.

Having experienced last year's presentation, I was so elated when I got my VIP pass the other day.  It's a lot of money, but worth every cent to celebrate another momentous occasion. 

The tan is extra.
