I need to write about the Jamie Cullum concert now before it gets displaced by Coldplay tonight (recency effect).

In one word: INCREDIBLE.  I have never seen a performer with as much energy as Jamie Cullum. From the time he walked on stage, he was killing it. I'm horrible at these concert synopses, so I'm gonna just talk about the highlights of the ( Read more... )

So my week will be as follows:

Monday - Prison Break on TV (big event, y'all)
Tuesday - Jamie Cullum concert
Wednesday - Coldplay concert
Thursday - Umoja: The Spirit of Togetherness (play)
Friday - choir rehearsal

I still have to work everyday, plus I'm pulling a Saturday shift. I'm tired just thinking about it - I think I'm getting too old for

Last night, a few of us went to see the Harlem Gospel Choir.  They were playing at the Hummingbird Centre, and the crowd was almost sold out.  I'm not sure what my expectations were when I went in.  I did know they were a world-renowned gospel choir, and have sung with pretty much everyone.  They were professionals.  So not only was I interested in ( Read more... )

He was just walking around with a wad of bills in his hand, asking the people who got off the train if they wanted $900. Strange. Nobody took it from him. Got me thinking. A ( Read more... )

Last Thursday we had a choir engagement. We were singing on my old university campus. SO we're singing, and I'm all into it, and Lisa (our director) gives the signal for us to start the verse over. I SAW the cue, I know what the cue means, I've only seen it over a hundred times ( Read more... )

So I am still alive....and I'm just wondering how I managed to stay away from LJ for two months. My last post was on October 14th!

I think it's because I really don't have that much to say, or to talk about, really. I go to work from Monday to Friday, on Friday nights I have choir rehearsal, on Saturday I either do the housework I've neglected for ( Read more... )
