I’m sorry…but there are none. It’s just impossible to make a “Tan” joke sound even half clever these days. Most of them are just cringe-worthy. I’ve seen at least a few dozen different “Tan” jokes the past one week, and I’m sure you’ve had the same too. If there’s one thing worse than “curry” jokes [...]

Sondheim On Lyrics
Monday, 22 August, 2011
Over the past year, I have been consuming a lot of podcasts from the American Theatre Wing because they have an entire range of free and highly valuable interviews with some of the greatest practitioners ever on Broadway. It’s an incredible learning experience just hearing these masters of Broadway dispense their pearls of wisdom. I [...]
Lady Gaga Does It Again
Saturday, 20 August, 2011
No seriously, she’s come up with yet another irresistably catchy hit. I don’t really care so much for Gaga’s dressing and antics and stuff, but I’ve found a lot of her songs to be extremely well-crafted.

The riots that are spreading across England are both extremely disturbing and frightening. You wouldn’t have imagined that London would have been the scene of some of the most heinous riots seen in Western Europe in decades. Initially, the Rodney King incident in LA came to mind, but as the days go on, it seems [...]
What Happened After SISTIC’s Fine?
Wednesday, 10 August, 2011
I’m not sure if anyone remembers, but slightly more than a year ago, SISTIC was fined $989,000 for “infringing the Competition Act”. One year on, what I would dearly love to know is – what exactly has changed? Have there been subtle changes made to the way SISTIC operates and competes? If so, I would [...]
The Cranberries: Live In Concert
Thursday, 4 August, 2011
Ireland has had a history of producing great bands, but one of my favourite bands to ever come out of Ireland has still got to be The Cranberries. I started listening to them since the early 90′s, back in the cassette era. (Yes, I believe I still have that “No Need To Argue” cassette tape [...]
