I had the misfortune of walking down Bedford avenue during the rain storm and it made my pita triangles all soggy. :(

It's Leon Russell, guys.

Leon Russell is opening for Dylan, that is. He was awesome last night. Also I believe Kelsey Grammer sings the "Frasier" theme, but it is in the Leon Redbone style.

Kelsey Grammer and his small penis does indeed sing the "Frasier" show theme, but it is most definitely not ina Leon Redbone stylee.

I was actually watching the writers commentary of some old episodes of Frasier the other day and apparently producers of the show tried to get Leon Redbone to do the theme song, but he refused. Everyone was shocked, but relieved when the perfect Redbone impersonator was found, Kelsey Grammer.

"A Fucking Elephant" and "Gore Orphanage" ??
My god, can't these losers come up with anything better to call their bands?

I like what Braun Cruzer has done to the place!
Posted by Anonymous | August 15, 2011 3:52 AM
Apparently the producers of the "Frasier" show have never actually listened to Leon Redbone.
1:25 is correct.

Dylan and Russell were both very good last night in Asbury Park. Bob's voice seemed a bit smoother then I remember the last few times I saw him. Also, the sound at the Convention Hall was much better then I remembered it being... Hopefully, a good sign of things to come for ATP.
