WHILE WE'RE ON THE SUBJECT....

.....of rock/roll, last Saturday I dragged us to see the Broadway musical, American Idiot. Appropriate in the light of how that day transpired.

The reason for the dragging was to see Billie Jo of yer actual Green Day, who is starring in it for a month. My argument was: you would go and see Liam Gallagher in a 4 week run of an Oasis musical, or, er, a Mumford & Son in a M &S rock opera wouldn't you? The answer from my family was a resounding No. Nobody enjoyed it and it was no fun. Then RBH and myself had a small domestic in 5 Napkin Burger, one thing led to another and the weekend was ruined.

Which again, considering what happened elsewhere in the USA on Saturday, was appropriate somehow.
