A few thoughts—
**I am happy to read that Andrew G. is rebounding. I have not followed his career closely but from what I see he has talent. I hope he has come to terms with his inner demons and is making better choices. I wish him all the best. We deserve second chances.
**Madonna. I have sounded off on this lady before. I have never been a die-hard Madonna fan. And yes, I am old enough to remember when she came on the scene. Being two hours late-and then some-is showing disrespect for your fans and co-workers as well. Hell, that is the entire length of some concerts. Folks have places to be. I don’t care who you are. Madonna has all day to get ready. I even heard once that folks were leaving. Some venues do have to shut down at a certain time. Let’s not forget the union workers who support her show. They are many times bound by time constraints. There is a lot of moving parts to put on a performance. It’s a job. Show up on time, do your best, and go home.
