Material Girls (and Boys).

I used to own this book. Wonder what happened to it?

There's an all-star Madonna celebration at Radio Bean on Sat. that I didn't have room to mention in the print edition. So I'll just post the (raw) details from the organizers:

Got some news for this week's column if you have space.... A Madonna night at the radio Bean! Several area musicians are performing their versions of some of Madonna's hits...some solo and some groups performing.. Looks like it will be mighty interesting and
fun.... Musicians are: Caroline O'Connor, Peg Tassey, Home Items, Teresa Lorenco, Jenny Martin, members of the Ryan Power Band, Marie Claire, Leanna Incalzco, Cccome?, Nick Gorgeous, Matthew Miner, Nicole Seligson, Johnny Aquadora, Children of the Night and Josh Martin. Some sets will be complete with back-up singers and maybe even dancers(?).... Plenty of surprises are in store. Show starts at 9:30 on Saturday Jan 13th and will probably go late. As of yet there is no Material Girl look-alike contest scheduled....

So there you have it. I personally can't stand Madonna. OK, OK — I like "Crazy for You". But this event looks pretty fun, in a high school talent show kind of way. Burlington, you're just soooo precious!

I've got a real bad sore throat, so I'm just hangin' in there. Apologies for the lack of posts.

I dont know who I'm more excited to hear cover Madonna- the lovely Home Items ladies or the lovely Johnny Aquadora... either way it'll be sexyweird

I liked 80's Madonna, back when she doing the Brooklyn Street Urchin look & dating Jean-Michel Basquiat. Everything after that was just downhill.
