With a Little Luck

One of my favorite Wings songs:

Cure in Concert

Robert Smith and the rest of the band were in fine form last night at the HP Pavilion in San Jose. Here are some pictures taken with my iPhone:

In Memory of John Lennon

Today is the anniversary of John Lennon's death. He was an incredibly talented person who tried hard to make the world a better place.

His lyrics for Imagine are inspiring:

Queen: You're my Best Friend

On the anniversary of Freddy Mercury's death, here's the video of one of my favorite Queen songs:

San Francisco Opera

I've got a soft spot for Opera because I used to sing opera at the Royal Opera house in London when I was a kid. So I recently decided to join BRAVO!, San Francisco's opera society, and will start attending some of the local opera performances. I will blog about the performances once they get going.

The Police Tour

The Police is one of my favorite bands, and they're about to kick off their reunion tour. Unfortunately, they're not scheduled to perform in San Francisco, so if you're like me and don't want to miss them play, check out their Canadian venues.

Surrender

Here's another ELO video for a song that I hadn't heard before; Surrender.

Latitude 88 North

Latitude 88 North is another Electric Light Orchestra song that wasn't released until recently as an extra track on Out of the Blue. Here's the video.

Heaven only knows

One of my favorite bands is the Electric Light Orchestra, so imagine my delight when I found this alternative recording for Heaven only knows on Youtube. It's much better than the version on the official release of Balance of Power.
