Norah Jones

Well I reviewed the Norah Jones concert from last night you can read mt review here. Sasha Dobson opened and she showed she had some talent but might have been better suited for a smaller venue.

Here is a little taste of Sasha Dobson, I really enjoyed her voice..


Norah Jones new music sounds a bit more pop due to being produced by Danger Mouse, here she is performing a new song off her Little Broken Hearts album on Letterman

Here is her encore from last night..
See, I am sharing some of the show and a couple of video clips that were not on my review as I try to add a little more on my blog. I hope you enjoy!

A to Z: Nubians

Well I reviewed the Lopez Studios version of Elton John and Tim Rice's version of Aida. You can read the review here.Aida was a Nubian Princess who was captured and turned into a slave. All of the slaves in the production were Nubian. So it is no stretch to turn today's N to Nubian based on Aida.

It was really cool to see a cast of pre-teens and teenagers perform so well. Theatre is alive and well and looks like it will remain that way for a while.

A to Z: Music Column

Well it is official I have a new music column called Capital Sound. You can read it here. It should be fun as part of the reason I moved with my editor to a different site was the chance to cover more music.

So far this site besides a few musicals and plays I have covered this year:

The Experience Hendrix Concert and the Legendary Smokey Robinson.


On the old site, The Maryland Theatre Guide which is still going I reviewed...

I covered Bryan Adams and Ryan Adams. The first time I've covered back to back rhyming artists.

I enjoyed my time with the Md Theatre Guide and I was fortunate to cover a lot of neat shows and concerts.

Stayed tune for more column posts and reviews soon!

New Site, New Opportunities

I should have a couple of reviews up this week on a new site. It is called DC Metro Theater Arts . My first two reviews are really neat concerts. The site will still have a lot of theatre coverage which I will be a part of, but it will also have a lot more music coverage. Which means I will be covering a lot more music, which I do anyway so it is a great fit. There will be some movie coverage and art coverage as well, so the site will be more inclusive to the wonderful art scene around Washington, D.C.

I might also start writing for another site about music as well which has the possibility of print articles as well. I don't want to blog too much about that before it happens. In the mean time my reviews are going out a little slower. It also means some of my material to blog about here hasn't been available. However, things should speed up soon.

Plus right now I am not signed up for a lot. I know you all have heard that before and end up covering a bunch of stuff.
