No I would not. I saw them at Candlestick and they were "OK" in '81. Would have loved toRead More have see them with Mick Taylor on guitar. They would be a great Summer series Santa Cruz Boardwalk show these days.

I like the sound of James' new music and believe he has shown significant growth between his debutRead More album and his second. But to say he was "the real winner of his season of 'American Idol'" is disingenuous. He faltered down the stretch compared to the other finalists.

He is such an attractive and lovely young man, tho I am old enough to be his grandmother I stillRead More feel so passionate about James Durbin and his sexy hair and rock music. Makes me feel young again!

This show was exceptional, James is a natural on stage and shines with the brightest stars. I amRead More proud to say I was hooked and reeled in from the first notes sang during Idol auditions. As a life long lover of a variety of music I can safely say I see nothing but great things in this young man's future. He had me first as a singer,soon thereafter as a performer and now as James DURBIN, singer, song writer, performer and artist. He continues to grow and push himself toward stardom and I am proud to be Right Behind him all the way.

Sounds like a great book. I read Hoffman's own book, LSD My Problem Child, and really enjoyed whatRead More he had to say. What a long and fruitful life he had! Everyone whose life has been changed by LSD has this man, and a set of fortuitous circumstances in a Sandoz lab, to thank. (Everyone else has irrational drug policy and Puritanical social attitudes to thank.) I think the current revival of psychedelic studies does honor Hoffman's memory. Finally, something other than irrational prohibition! www.psychedelicfrontier.com

Thanks to Albert Hoffman, for this truly wondrous medicine. Though its hard to imagine such aRead More momentous discovery was purely by chance. The mid-40's was also marked by the Manhattan Project - splitting the atom, and turning the primal energy of the universe into a weapon - as well as the first programmable electronic computers. On the verge of planetary destruction, a Swiss chemist finds a substance that reliably engenders a deeply spiritual experience, of the sacred unity of all existence. It was if Spirit spoke to us in the only language we could hear - that of Science, and something made in a lab - to reveal what was always there within us. And just in time, to save us from ourselves.
