I made the very smart decision to smart my Wednesday by watching the slide show of The Band Genesis, Ward Sutton’s parody of R. Crumb’s take on the Book of Genesis. Sutton’s mock cover for the “Invisible Touch” single is brilliant and hysterical.

Phil Collins is playing Roseland Ballroom in New York soon, a relatively small place for a guy like him. A friend and I even considered going, because Phil’s had his great radio moments. Then we found out he’s playing all Motown covers. Pass. And this is not because I don’t love Motown; I do. It’s because the world already has one aging Rod Stewart, and that’s one too many.
