It isn’t every day that I feel like I’m on the winning end of something, but today – or last night, rather, I did feel a little uplifted. Eagles of Death Metal returned to Paris, and I must admit it is one show that I wish I could have attended. I’m not even a EODM… Continue reading Music Wins

A few of my best moments of 2015
30th of December, 2015. We’ve got about a day and a half left in this year, give or take depending upon where you are in the world. Speaking for myself, I’m happy to see this one end. I have friends who look at New Years with some sort of wide-eyed optimism for possibilities, and I’m… Continue reading A few of my best moments of 2015
Year End 2015 Katy Kafe with Simon Le Bon!
There are some Kafes that you know right away are going to go well because everyone is in the right mood…and there are the ones when Simon is clearly tired and not really into having it right way. Guess which category this one fit into??? As always, I listened carefully, tried to take notes (while… Continue reading Year End 2015 Katy Kafe with Simon Le Bon!

Take EODM Save a Prayer to Number One!
In my 45 years on this planet, I’ve become quite the cynic. Though, I don’t think I’ve ever been characterized as an optimist, to be fair, It is also true to say I tend to think the worst of situations (and people) as a knee jerk reaction a lot of the time. Seems silly to apologize… Continue reading Take EODM Save a Prayer to Number One!
Fear Today, Forgot Tomorrow
I think I’ve been watching the news non-stop since Friday afternoon. I’m a news-junkie to begin with, but this weekend I haven’t been far from the TV or my phone, as I monitor news from Paris. I am still wrestling with what happened on Friday and how. I remember half-listening to the TV as I worked… Continue reading Fear Today, Forgot Tomorrow
If We Take It For Granted-Duran in Paris
Yesterday, Duran Duran played in Paris. They were there for the 24 Hours of Reality and Live Earth: The World Is Watching global event to draw attention to the issue of climate change. They played one song, shown below, around 6 pm local time. I thought it was a fitting choice, at the time, to… Continue reading If We Take It For Granted-Duran in Paris
