edy as if shakespeare constructed it himself it did not take long to realize her talent and mourn her loss at the conclusion of the abc special royal tragedy on the somber sunday evening after the fatal car crash i went to my bedroom and dimmed the lights i played elton john s candle in the wind and wept on august 31 2017 email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest u2 and the lumineers perform at metlife stadium in new jersey it was a picturesque day sunny and cool we loaded up the suv and headed west over the bridge past the new jersey state fair to a nearly empty parking lot we were early the anticipation of seeing the lumineers and u2 reached a crescendo as we sat in folding chairs looking at the entrance to metlife stadium with the clear blue sky dotted only by passing airplanes u2 performs at metlife stadium in new jersey on june 28 2017 nj com seeing u2 perform was on my bucket list as the band s canon of music has provided a soundtrack for much of my past the addition of the lumineers to the bill was serendipitous as i missed seeing them last summer at the prospect park bandshell and the ommegang brewery in cooperstown ny we were seated in section 116 adjacent to the sound stage the sound was perfect during the lumineers performance but hit some dissonance during u2 s with or without you that resulted in minor deductions from the judges each front man shared personal stories that made this live performance particularly memorable wesley schultz of the lumineers reminisced about growing up in new jersey prior to moving across the river to brooklyn his car was broken into for reasons that escaped him as his radio was still intact it was during his next river crossing when he realized the thieves made off with his e zpass the episode inspired the song slow it down the lumineers perform at metlife stadium in new jersey on june 28 2017 twitter the lumineers bono wove his well known political endeavors into the performance and paid particular homage to the band s special guests he named each of their spouses and children and thanked them for being there before launching into ultraviolet light my way that featured a montage of

pinterest say hello 2 heaven chris cornell and gregg allman i hopped in the back of pick up truck and sped toward manhattan for the much anticipated guns n roses concert we had just finished our shifts at ihop and two of the waitresses had changed out of their blue plaid frocks into fishnet tights and black leather jackets their lips were painted ruby red and their friends provided the transportation along with a case of beer one of my fellow refugees was not going for guns he was going to see the opening band soundgarden he had on a badmotorfinger t shirt that was well worn chris cornell performs in 1992 that concert was my introduction to soundgarden and the emerging seattle music scene i can still hear chris cornell shake the walls of madison square garden as my neck snapped back and forth with each passing rocker chick who left nothing to my teenage imagination i would hear that same booming voice again some years later when audioslave played atop the marquee of the late show with david letterman and shook the neighboring building were i worked 32 stories above news of chris cornell s passing was shocking he was the beacon that led the way for the tumultuous talent in flannel shirts who occupied the nation from coast to coast for more than a decade chris cornell had a voice not only to shake the concrete walls where he performed but also to carry the beleaguered hearts of his generation his lament for the loss of his friend andrew wood on the temple of the dog album is eerie as it is a fitting eulogy for himself there s just one thing left to be said say hello to heaven there s nobody left to run with anymore with zero time to comprehend the loss of chris cornell we were hit with the passing of gregg allman i ve lost count of how many allman brothers shows i ve seen and how transported i was at each one across each state i visited there is one show that stands out it was not due to the sheer power of gregg allman s voice rather it was due to its absence gregg allman and cher circa 1975 it was late morning in the summer of 1995 when my phone rang my friend broke the news that jerry garcia had passed i met my friend at our familiar spot and friends dropped by at various times to grieve the loss along with us we went to the allman brothers show that night at jones beach where the crowd was in a somber mood the allman brothers took the stage and dickey betts addressed the crowd by saying we lost a brother today it soon became apparent that gregg allman had lost his voice so the band played many of the songs dickey sang including ramblin man which they had retired after its chart topping success the black crowes were in town and the robinson brothers joined the band for a spirited rendition of southbound gregg did manage to to sing no one to run with that featured a montage of fallen musicians with the recently added jerry garcia as i look at my music shelf a good percentage of it comprises chris cornell and gregg allman records the impact these musicians had on my life can be measured in decades i take comfort in knowing they left behind many recordings and i imagine the choir of angels has gotten even better on may

writers who became legends such as thomas wolfe f scott fitzgerald and ernest hemingway none of these men knew celebrity until their first novel was published back then publishers invested in writers who could build careers they paid modest advances and worked together to produce literature that could achieve commercial success some books would flop others would yield a modest return and some would be gigantic best sellers the best sellers would fund the enterprise george r r martin publishing has changed since then an unknown writer presents undue risk to a publisher to achieve profit they must invest in those titles the industry will support as best sellers that said a writer with an established audience has leverage for example the obamas were awarded a 60 million contract from penguin random house for the president s and the first lady s memoirs a safe bet by any calculation but the pendulum for today s writers can swing both ways with a bona fide hit out of the gate the pressure to follow it up can be overwhelming one way writers can avoid the sophomore jinx is through a series that rolls like a snowball down a hill such as game of thrones and harry potter of course a writer can become the series themselves such as stephen king tom clancy and john grisham since m any of the commercially successful books are wonderful pieces of literature too where does it leave today s aspiring writers j k rowling while the business of publishing has evolved with the marketplace the marketplace has itself become more accessible backing from a publisher with promotion and distribution can smooth the path to fortune and fame but it s never an easy path it s a howling storm out there and writers must put on their boots fasten their coats hold on to their hats and trudge

streets of jamaica queens with reckless abandon terrorizing pedestrians in its path the nypd was in hot pursuit as the bull paraded down city sidewalks and hopped fences looking for its way out of the urban maze the beast was struck with tranquilized darts resembling carefully placed swords from spanish matadors while crowds gathered to watch the event its captors from the nearby aziz slaughter house chased the bull until it turned its horns toward them and charged they escaped being gored without the customary cheer of olé the bull traveled two miles and was seemingly cornered before escaping to run a half mile more it finally sat down in a yard on 158th street and 116th avenue and was captured and transported to a nearby animal shelter where it was later pronounced dead from the corrida the gallant run by the beast to escape the butcher s knife prompted a candlelight vigil in its honor outside the slaughterhouse the next day bull escapes slaughterhouse in queens theodore

portrait of a lady for an eternity what if eternity was measured in 10 minutes or 10 hours or 10 days what if you saw the same picture each day for 10 years would it feel like eternity could any portrait hold you captive for that long perhaps if it changed ever so slightly each day a new hairstyle a different dress a dash of pepper here a pinch of salt there would it continue to entice the palette imagine if the lady could speak and you could watch her expression change from mock disbelief to spontaneous laughter in an instant would eternity be long enough liz cho eyewitness news feb 4 2016 i first wrote about liz cho in december of 2006 when she was the co anchor of eyewitness news at 11pm her bright portrait illuminated my tranquil living room each night those times when she was absent there was a noticeable void like a blank space on a museum wall i took note of one such absence in 2007 when she was on maternity leave and triumphantly announced her return a few months later i chronicled the disappearance of her wedding ring in 2008 and speculated there was a budding romance between liz and her co anchor bill ritter it was an unfounded rumor however it forshadowed her public divorce in 2012 and her equally public romance with good morning america s josh elliott with whom she would marry in 2014 the consummate professional liz cho s personal life rarely interfered with her professional one the only disruption in a decade was when she left the 11pm broadcast to fill the 4pm void in programming when oprah winfrey retired the change in shift was thought to be temporary at first but it soon became permanent the portrait of the lady that had become a fixture in my home seemed lost forever snatched away by an earlier broadcast that mercilessly conflicted with my own schedule luckily it wasn t for long as my living room grew less tranquil with a growing family my schedule skewed earlier and earlier until her 6pm broadcast filled the time slot before dinner liz cho eyewitness news feb 14 2017 to me it does not seem like an eternity since i first gazed upon the portrait of this particular lady her elegance and beauty has not only endured a decade it has radiated in high definition from an increasingly larger frame leaving me as captivated today as i was back then related posts liz cho gave birth to a baby girl today it appears liz cho is still
