Too soo...
I've said it before, but it bears saying again. It's crazy what will remind you of a beloved song or artist that you haven't heard or recalled in ages. You'll hear a tune in the oddest place, and, suddenly, it's a favorite again.One night last week, I was with my pal Wes, within the ornate, Deco-Azteco confines of the Mayan Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
