Tuesday Song of the Week

 Suh'm fun !!

'Cover of the Rolling Stone' - Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show

Back when this song came out, the line about '$10,000 a show,' was a heck of a lot of money when the song came out, in 1972.  That translates to over $72,000 today.

There was a Taylor Swift concert in Philly a few months back, with tickets going as high as $9,000.  I wouldn't pay 10 cents to see her.

Even if there was a concert by History's Greatest Rock Band  - ELO - that came to town, I wouldn't pay $9,000. That's the equivalent of about fifteen car payments.  

Some people have way too much money.

Mug of the Month

 Cat fight !!

'For Pity Sake Gentlemen Be Calm'

Get it here: www.zazzle.com/cat_fight_coffee_mug-168712524600402989

Tickets, please

I've always been a fan of one-man plays.

I've seen only one one-woman play, which I kinda didn't like, mainly because I've seen so many people in my acting career who coulda been way more appealing than they woman they cast. She wasn't terrible, but you could tell she was acting.  Which is the definition of someone who isn't a competent actor/actress.

Anyway, on to what you came for:

This was Robert Morse playing the role he got a Tony for, i.e. playing Truman Capote. 

Truman Capote is somebody I always felt a little sorry for.  He was a big talent, but he shot himself in the foot sooo many times, plus all the alcohol, plus he did some really foolish things, like making Lee Radziwill believe she could be a stage star, even though she had zero acting experience, and maybe ten minutes training.  .
