Taper Comments:
"A great show in Miami by U2 in front of an enthusiastic crowd. Bono talking quite a bit between songs and expressing good feelings about Miami.
Most of the day the weather forecast was looking very bad for showtime, but thankfully there wasn't a drop of rain. Excellent quality. Feel free to
upload on other trackers, i.e. u2torrents. Just don't sell."

Comments:
"Initially scheduled for 2010-07-09 with Interpol as support act but postponed to 2011 on 25 May 2010 due to Bono's back surgery
and rehabilitation period. Rescheduled date announced on 13 July 2010. When the concert was first announced in 2009, this venue
was known as Land Shark Stadium, though it had changed its name to Sun Life Stadium before even the original 2010 concert date."(U2gigs)

Fussin' and Feudin' Alert™: Brad hurts Jen again!

Publication: OK!
Date: 11 July 2011

OK!, a magazine that usually goes for upbeat stories, has the headline "News alert! Brad hurts Jen again!" this week.

It's the "News Alert!" part that makes it comedy gold.



Love Bird Alert™ and hussy alert: More about Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux.

Publications: People, Star, In Touch
Date: 11 July 2011

Eventually, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux will be together long enough to have a nice picture of them together. As it stands, they are always being photobombed in one way or another. (The person you can see who seems to be annoying them is Jason Sudelkis.)

In any case, there are three stories in the supermaket rags about them this week. Here are the headlines.
  • People: Jen & Justin Romantic NYC weekend
  • In Touch: Justin & Jen talking marriage
  • Star: Justin & Jen: his jilted ex speaks out
Ah, the good old predictable Star. No punch bowl is complete unless there's a turd in it.



Farewell Peter Falk.

Publications: People, Globe
Date: 11 July 2011

Peter Falk died last Friday, which gives the Only Ten Magazines That Matter plenty of time to consider whether to put him on the cover or not. People did something tasteful and the Globe didn't.

Quelle surprise.

Here are the headlines.
  • People: Farewell Peter Falk
  • Globe: Peter Falk - Tragic death secret
    Torment & hatred that drove Columbo star to his grave
Best wishes to the family and friends of Peter Falk, from a fan.

Taper Comments:
"Section 204 center. Great show with energetic crowd. Geddy still hitting the high notes. First time at Concord Pavilion, which is kind of a shit hole with poor design and not very loud.
Must be some sort of noise ordinance preventing a decent volume.  Makes the cheering of those around me more irritating, but overall still a very clear recording. My subjective rating: B".


Comment:
Second leg shows at the Concord Pavillion are always Rush at their best and tonight was no exception. Camera Eye and Presto were my personal favorites. The drum solo was also really a stand out. Peart is really mixing it up these days and tonight just sounded really different and more complex than anything I have heard him do in the 15 or so shows I have seen over the last 25 years. Geddy says the new album will be out around Christmas...Can hardly wait.
Thanks again gentlemen for another unforgettable 3-hours of great music.

Bundle of Joy Alert: Meet Kim Zolciak's baby boy!

Publication: Weekly Life & Style
Date: 11 July 2011

Fresh trash on Thursdays! Most of the women from the Real Housewives franchise that get multiple covers on the Only Ten Magazines That Matter are protrayed as bitches and gold diggers, but the supermarket rags have been relatively kind to Atlanta's Kim Zolciak. This week, she gets the best kind of treatment and female celebrity can get, pictures of her and her adorable baby. The boy's name is Kroy Jagger, which is not only unfortunate, it's also his daddy's name.

Best wishes to all involved.



Bundle of Joy Alert: Meet Alicia Silverstone's baby boy!

Publication: Us Weekly
Date: 11 July 2011

Fresh trash on Thursdays! Welcome to gossip hell, Alicia Silverstone! Actually, she's in the nicest section of the supermarket rag world, the rooms reserved for recent moms and their adorable babies. The boy's name is Bear Blu Jarecki, which he can legally have changed sometime in the 2030s when he reaches the age of consent, but by then the damage will have already been done.

Best wishes to the happy family.



Fussin' and Feudin' Alert™: Angelina snubs Wills'N'Kate!

Publication: Globe
Date: 11 July 2011

Fresh trash on Thursdays! You know Wills'N'Kate, the cute couple from across the pond that are going to be King and Queen of the United Kingdom one day? Yeah, I thought you might remember.


Well, according to the Globe, they are itty bitty bugs compared to the true queen of the gossip world right now, Angelina Jolie. They asked for a little sitdown for a parlay, and she was like all "Whatever, I'm busy! Why don't you try Jennifer Aniston or Julia Roberts or one of the other old wannabes?" (Not an actual quote.)

Oh, it's on like Donkey Kong!

That means Ellie Goulding meets Daft Punk. Result of this combination is this wonderful chilly grooving track "There's Something About Us Under The Street". Enjoy it!

Vintage Vogue

Vogue magazine is waaaay beyond 'vintage' being that the mag was first founded in 1892.  The publication didn't really start taking off until around the great depression when it's number of subscriptions began to rise. It wasn't until the 1960's however, that Vogue began to appeal to the youth of that generation as it began focusing more on contemporary fashions and the subject matter became more loose discussing topics such as 'sexuality' which was considered taboo even during that time of the sexual revolution of the free loving 60's.
Vogue magazine has of course adapted to the times, changing with each era and especially gained world wide recognition as a reputable source of 'what's what on the fashion scene' after being taken over by the current editor in chief Anna Wintour in 1988.   Wintour brought a fresh new take on the vintage periodical by incorporating an idea of how the 'common woman' (i.e. not wealthy), could incorporate an air of haute couture into their daily wardrobe with less expensive designer 'looking' pieces.  Before she came on board, the magazine had become stagnant offering the same ol' same old to it's avid readers, month after month.
Ms. Wintour has gained such a reputation in the fashion industry as an unabashed power house that she was nicknamed 'nuclear wintour' by her peers.    Without it being said literally, the character played by Meryl Streep in the 2006 'Devil Wears Prada', about a demanding fashion magazine editor was said to have been likened after her.  It was reported after the film was released that Wintour was not fond of the way she was portrayed regardless of the movies acclaimed success at the box office.
Vogue is so internationally popular that even if Wintour stepped down from her position, it's not likely that it would be going anywhere anytime soon, given the reputable nature it has gained in over a century!

Problems With Plastic Alert™: Real Housewife Teresa's $40,000 plastic surgery AFTER bankruptcy!

Publication: National Enquirer
Date: 4 July 2011

Fresh trash tomorrow! Last trash of the week... right now!

Teresa Guidice of The Real Housewives of New Jersey has a husband going to jail and has recently filed for bankruptcy. The Enquirer wants you to know she hid away enough money to get $40,000 worth of plastic surgery.

Is there some procedure that will give you a forehead if you are forehead impaired? That would be the first thing I'd recommend working on.



Fussin' and Feudin' Alert™: Two instances of bad blood among celebrities.


Publication: National Examiner
Date: 4 July 2011

The low rent Examiner has two sets of pictures of people who just don't like each other. First set of combatants are Rachel Ray and Martha Stewart. Their animosity has been tabloid fodder before this.


And welcome to gossip hell, Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior. The supermarket rags have left Hulk alone, though other gossip sources online have mocked him mercilessly for marrying a woman that looks waaaay too much like his daughter. This story is more about the Ultimate Warrior talking trash about what Hulk did when people actually cared about either of them.

Weekly World News alert: Dead cat's ghostly warning saves dying tot!

Publication: Weekly World News (via the Sun)
Date: 4 July 2011

Two stories this week from the Weekly World News, which is the first time since the beginning of last year they were allowed two headlines on the cover of the Sun. As you can read, the ghost of a dead cat saved a dying tot.

For the most part, living cats pretty much avoid tots, dying or otherwise, because these small humans do not understand the concept of "can opener". But if we believe this story, when cats become ghosts they evolve into more loving creatures with a deep regard for all living things.

In other words, when cats reach the next step in karmic consciousness, they become dogs.


[Video] Violetta Parisini


Vienna, Austria. I've always waited for the perfect moment to introduce Violetta Parisini to you. Now, I can't wait anymore. By reason that this artist is utterly my most favourite musician. All of her songs are brilliant. The lyrics and melodies are catchy and enchanting. And when she's performing, you can feel her passion for her music. This build up a great atomsphere in the venue. I'm very glad that I've seen Violetta Parisini in Munich this year. It was the best concert I've ever seen.
At the moment she's working on a new album. And I'm looking forward to it. But now I let you enjoy this cutout of her gig - it's a new song - at BAWAG Contemporay on 22nd June in Vienna. Check out also her latest album "Giving You My Heart To Mend" (purchase via Amazon, iTunes, Nokia Music Store).

Designer Dish on Salvatore Ferragamo

Although he's been gone for over a half a century, Italian designer Salvatore Ferragamo will always be known for his outrageous shoe designs, as pictured here with this pair of 1938, stacked, multi color platform sandals that were actually about forty years ahead of their time being that they could have easily be mistaken for styles we've seen worn circa 1970.
At the height of his career, his shoe designs were worn by Hollywood royalty such as Audrey Hepburn and he was considered to be the 'shoemaker to the stars'.  What set him apart from the many other up and coming designer competitors was his ability to custom make a shoe that felt just as good as it looked on the wearer.  He could fashion a shoe to fit any foot, just as well as a tailor could custom a suit.
Ferragamo or rather, the design house of the late Ferragamo has always been considered a family ran business being that it has been handed down from generation to generation and although shoes, belts and bags have always been at the forefront of the store front, around 1980 they began incorporating clothing into their mix of merchandise with their reputable designer label however, shoes will always be their mainstay.  Recently they showcased their 'Women's Resort 2012 Collection' featuring new designs of shoes and bags with a 'geared toward going on a vay kay' vibe & it was said that some notable ladies of Tinseltown made an appearance at the event such as Eva Mendez & Minka Kelly to stake dibs on their select fave pieces...


Given the past rich history of the Ferragamo line of extraordinary shoe designs, I am personally not very hooked on the Resort Collection.  I feel it's a bit muted/tame in comparison to what I've seen from decades ago which is now considered 'Vintage Ferragamo'....
Check back often as Retro Threadz has been known to find Ferragamo's every now and then!
