Mommy? Why does everybody have a bomb?
I’m happy to report that Prince (The Artist Once Again Known As Prince) is back, with a great CD, an exciting concert tour, and a new statue in the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame. “Cinnamon Girl,” the first single, manages to be a sweet, even ebullient anti-war take on life after 9/11. There’s a very cool Newsweek article entitled, yes, “Party Like It’s 2004.” If he’s Jehovah’s witness, at least he’s one with a wicked sense of humor, and frankly even on ‘Purple Rain’ and ‘1999,’ the Almighty has always been a favorite Prince theme and concern. Anyway, word is that most concert-goers are enjoying the party and letting any references to the Big Guy roll off their backs….
I need to work today, despite having Good Friday off... I must catch up! But, a small price to pay for a week in Brazil grilling local companies in Portuguese and eated grilled meat : - ) I have more personal news to tell you, which I'll post later today. Enjoy!
