Tonight - Paul Giamatti and David Strathairn debate each other in The Play's the Thing's staging of "The Rivalry" - the famed Abraham Lincoln - Stephen Douglas debates - at the Skirball Cultural Center in LA. The play is performed like an old-time radio drama - mikes on stage and scripts in hand, live audience, but broadcast live on the radio.Saturday night - Gordon Lightfoot at The Canyon Club. This is the most excellent venue where I saw The Zombies in June - and my virgin concert of this Canadian legend and performer of such hits as "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald", "Sundown", "If You Could Read My Mind", "Early Morning Rain", "The Pony Man", "Cape Horn" and many others. See my Youtube performance below.
Sunday night - The Carl Wilson Cancer Foundation brew ha at the Roxy in Hollywood with Brian Wilson, Carnie and Wendy Wilson (of Wilson-Phillips fame), The Honeys, Al Jardine of The Beach Boys and Surf guitar legend Dick Dale.
(...and of course, the Jets at Oakland - but I was trying to avoid talking about sports in this particular post. GO JETS! GO FAVRE!)
