Some old, leathery guy who looked like he had on a wig and fake nose was doing something with a saxophone. We could barely hear anything above the traffic on Washington Blvd. and the chattering of the heavily imbibing crowd.<BR/><BR/>“They shouldn’t let this guy even play,” says Thing 1. “His music is lame.”Kevin McKeeverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673014424525900380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481685117023521386.post-32016182440157119232008-07-11T06:46:00.000-04:002008-07-11T06:46:00.000-04:00Thing one: Anthem is awesome.

They did a killer cover of "Another Day in Paradise" by Phil Collins.<BR/><BR/>Thing two: Stamford's outdoor music fests seem to me to be pandering to the +/- 30 crowd (of which I am a proud member) at the expense of everyone else. While I, along with everyone else who graduated high school in the mid-90s, can't wait for Boyz II Men, I'm way more curious about Los Lobos. I'd love to see them do a reggae evening at A@5, or a hip-hop event. And not, like, MC Hammer. Put on something slightly challenging. I bet people'll come out.<BR/><BR/>When Eve 6 plays "Inside Out" next Thursday, I wonder how many people in the audience will say the [insert cover band that plays at Tiernan's here] version is better.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09298384186136277403noreply@blogger.com
