We saw Glen Tilbrook from the band Squeeze in concert last night. He was fantastic! He has two sons-around the ages of 14 and 10? The fourteen year old played guitar on some songs. He is phenomenal, especially for his young age. The younger song sang harmony on a few songs-he was adorable and has a sweet voice. Glen always comes out to meet fans after shows.

Hi Sherry!

I have never geard any of Glen Tilbrook's solo stuff, so I checked out some of his videos on YouTube. I really like it! His music reminds me of something you would hear on the soundtrack to a Bridget Jones movie! That's so sweet that he has his kids join him- and that they are talented, too!

Do you think Roadies will be cancelled because it isn't good, or because it doesn't have enough of an audience? I watched most of Vinyl and was on the fence on that show, so it doesn't surprise me that it was cancelled.

Wendy- I think Roadies does not have enough of an audience.


I did not care much for Vinyl until halfway through when Ray Romano had a bigger role. He was practically the only character who was not totally self involved.

Speaking of Ray Romano- a friend of our son met him a few weeks ago on a NJ boardwalk. He ended up playing mini golf with them and posed for pictures. He was incredibly nice. It cracks me up that he could afford to vacation anywhere and came to the Jersey shore.

Wendy-Glen's solo music is wonderful. There still isn't word if Roadies got renewed or not.

For fans of Stevie Nicks and the Pretenders-a fall tour together

What a great bill-we are definitely going!

The American Airlines magazine recently featured an interview with Neil Young. I was surprised to learn hat he travels with a reformer and is a certified Pilates instructor. Who knew? Or maybe this is old news that I am just learning, lol.

Wow, I didn't know that about Neil Young. I think that's great!

I did not know that! Neil is on Dan Rather's series "The Big Interview" on AXS Tv on 9/13. In a preview clip Neil said he had polio as a child and he has to work hard to keep himself healthy and in shape. It still affects him years later.

Oh, polio, that rings a bell. I remember Joni Mitchell saying in an interview that polio was an epidemic in Canada where they are both from, & that they both had polio as children.

Hmm...I recently read Rita Coolidge's autobiography and she talked quite a bit about Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. I know one of the guys came off like a real jerk and one of them came off as a really neat guy....now if I could only remember which was which...LOL.

Oh I may have to read that autobiography. I love CSNY and have read Crosby's (of course his had to be two volumes ), Nash's and Young's autobiographies. As I recall, there was no mention of pilates in Neil's. I enjoy rock autobiographies!

I love rock biographies....I'll have to make a list later
