Coldplay

So, I'm seeing Coldplay on Saturday. Last time I saw them the view was this...




Front row! Pretty amazing show, to say the least. This time my friend and I have 16th row...so still quite good. I'm looking forward to it. :o)


So that's my one thing to look forward to until next month, when I see Jerry Lee Lewis as well as Mike Doughty (formerly the lead singer of a great NYC band, Soul Coughing).

Went on Tuesday to meet Anthony Rapp - he's from RENT (both the original cast on Broadway as well as the movie) and other films as well. He wrote a book, a memoir about the things he has experienced in his life, and also talked quite a bit about Rent...very good book, very touching. So, he had a book signing on Tuesday and I just had to go. He read some pages and took questions from the audience, and then did a signing afterwards. He's such a cool guy. I've met him in the past and he is always so kind and easily approachable.

For anyone living in the NYC who hasn't seen Rent on Broadway...please, do yourself a favor and go see it!!! It's really a fantastic production - a rock opera with unbelievable songs, and a very gripping, emotional story. Visit the site for the show here.

Random picture, I know, but really quite
an excellent shot of young Roger, don't you think?
