Yes, I know my comments are broken.  Yes, I know my website is slightly damaged.  Spammers were bad, my host was mean to me, and I’m battling off a cold.  I’ve taken enough Airborne to make my bodily fluids turn bright neon.

Not even that, but I was subjected to the worst possible ‘80s cover band of all time tonight.  I went to the 93.1 Jack FM launch party tonight at the Continental Hyatt on the Sunset Strip [Ed. note: Yes, the place referred to as “The Riothouse,” also as mentioned in Almost Famous], and among the mingling were several character actors dressed up as Madonna, Rod Stewart, Mick Jagger and Gwen Stefani (though we couldn’t really decide if she was supposed to be Gwen Stefani or Cyndi Lauper).  I mean, how do you make a living as a character actor?  Does someone remark to you one day that you look like Mick Jagger, so you up and decide that’s how you’re going to make a living?  But I digress, because then… then… this band took the stage.  Four guys—one dressed as The Cure’s Robert Smith, one dressed as Prince (who actually removed his shirt during “Let’s Go Crazy” and left it off), one dressed as one of the yellow-suited guys from Devo, and one dressed as Fast Times at Ridgemont High‘s Jeff Spicoli.  To be fair, the Spicoli guy did actually look halfway decent.  But Jesuchristo, the cheese factor was cranked way up past Velveeta.

Okay, and speaking of Jesuchristo, check out VH1 Classic on Sunday as they mix the two great tastes that taste great together: Jews and hard rock.  The tender folks at VH1 Classic are bringing them both to the Passover seder table as Dee Snider hosts Matzo and Metal: A Very Classic Passover along with Twisted Sister partner-in-Judaism JJ French, Anthrax’s Scott Ian and Mountain’s Leslie West.  The quartet will discuss their rich, full Jewish heritage and their music industry experiences on a program that is sponsored by—who else?—Manischewitz.  Don’t believe me?  Click here.  I’m not kidding.
