I went to another free show, this one featuring a Talking Heads cover band called "Start Making Sense."  it occurred to me that cover bands are underrated.  Where else can you go to hear all your favorite songs from a band that broke up a while ago?

In this case, we got a whole bunch of my favorites!

 I just got back from a free Low Cut Connie show in Haddon Heights, which featured fellow Cherry Hill East graduate Adam Weiner.  Highlights included covers of the Spinners' "I'll Be Around," and Prince's "Controversy."  The guy is just so agile, somehow playing the piano while doing all kinds of acrobatics and playing the piano with his mic stand.
