*We’d Be Remiss Not To Mention Madonna’s 50th Bday + We Take A Second Look at Like a Virgin*

Yes, *THE* one and only Like a Virgin video. The one where she glides across the East River only to navigate the Grand Canals of Venice. I totally remembered something, too! The lion itself wasn’t allowed onto the main clump of islands- that segment was filmed on Giudecca Island, across the canal. That lil’ fact was quite comforting as we had to trudge through those very columns and into a musty monastic library to do research during grad school. That, and the fact that stage right was a deli where you could bring your own empty liter bottles to fill from tapped vats of wine. Which in turn might have had us recreating the lion’s steps after hours, or perhaps the un-immaculate one’s own choreography. See, it’s the circle of life! and we wonder why American exchange students get a bad rap!
PS if you ever live in Venice don’t drink to the point of incapacitation, because there really is no way to get a cab home. We’re talking miles of back alleys and foot bridges. No room for cars, and boats will only get you so far. It’s an incredibly romantic notion but a bit challenging to navigate if you are, you know, carrying another person.

Live Review : 5 Reasons the Supergrass Show at Webster Hall NYC Was Epic by Dev Sherlock *****

1) Home field advantage: This being the only headline gig for Supergrass, currently touring the US with Foo Fighters (and notwithstanding a spontaneous club show in Denver after that night’s Foos show was postponed), the band clearly relished the opportunity to play an extended set and take in the love from a receptive crowd of their own fans. Moods visibly enhanced and smiles for miles.
2) “Pumping On Your Stereo”: They reminded us that this single is far better than everyone thought.
