I have a friend who loves live concert recordings. Lately, we’ve been watching Dave Matthews Band live in Central Park. I’m not sure what it is, but I can watch that guy perform over and over and never get sick of it… and I’m not even really watching it live.
It may be the full orchestra of instruments backing him up or the soft country drawl to his voice that every city boy secretly wishes he had, but Dave Matthews puts on a show. I think I’m going to organize a trip to see them in concert over the summer at the Santa Barbara bowl.
I also heard something that really chapped my hide yesterday morning. I was listening to Q104.7 and one of the female DJ’s was going off about how Megan Fox has weird thumbs. “They look like she has a big toe on her hand” she said. More than anything, the comment was just disappointing. It’s a sad tribute to the things that we pay attention to today. Have we really become so fascinated with celebrities that we are going to take time to point out the imperfection of someone’s thumbs?
I realize that a lot of morning radio shows focus on celebrity news. A lot of people like hearing about it. That’s fine. It can be entertaining at times. I heard Ryan Reynolds on the radio this morning talking with Ryan Seacrest and it was actually a pretty humorous exchange. Let’s get real though, if you can’t find a DJ that can find something more interesting to talk about than Megan Fox’s fingers, then just tell them to shutup and just play some music. And if you insist on talking about body parts, at least pick something more exciting than thumbs…
