It is that time – SUMMER CONCERTS!!!!
I got my tickets today for MUSE (august 6) and THE WHITE STRIPES (July 24) at madison sqaure garden. I am more stoked about muse – their live shows constantly win them awards and I have waited a long time for them to finally play the garden. That show is the monday before the wedding – anil, let me know if you are game for it. I am also going to be seeing TODD SNIDER on OCTOBER 26. If you dont know about him, look him up and thank me later. Anyone else been to a show or going to a show? Anyone seeing the POLICE or GENESIS????? Anyone see dylan – I heard he sucks live. Post all concert related stuff – let us know which shows to see and which ones to skip. Thanks!

Dakota Fanning Child Molestation Scene Controversy

This article pissed me off. I mean come on, it’s a movie. Can’t these people find anything better to do. A federal investigation? Decide for yourself.
At a festival that features several films with sexual content, including full male nudity and a documentary about bestiality, a Southern Gothic tale that includes the rape of a young girl is causing the biggest stir.
“Hounddog” is the story of Lewellen, a girl played by 12-year-old Dakota Fanning, who is growing up in the 1960s South. She is a free-spirit obsessed with Elvis Presley and has little supervision by her abusive father and alcoholic grandmother.
Even before the first screening of “Hounddog” at the Sundance Film Festival this week, a Christian film critic, citing Fanning’s age, decried the movie as child abuse, and Roman Catholic activist Bill Donohue called for a federal investigation.
