Duplicity Film review

I really liked Duplicity. I never thought of myself as a Julia Roberts fan but she was very good in this. I like films with intricate and suspenseful plots. This reminds me somewhat of Michael Clayton in that regard. I also liked the relationship between Roberts and Clive Owen. I don't the lack of trust they had for each other, but their compatibility intellectually and sexually. I'd recommend it.

Post script. It resembles Michael Clayton because the same director, Tony Gilroy, did both.

Song we are doing

We actually have a performance scheduled for 5/19 for a parents function at Matt's and Kim's kids' school. We have to do some danceable stuff so we are trying this one.

Nothing in particular

Canceled New York date: Due to unforeseen circumstances we regret to announce the cancellation of the New York show on the Thursday 12th March at Roseland Ballroom. All tickets bought for the Thursday show will be honoured for the Saturday 14th March show at the same venue. We are sorry for any inconvenienced caused. More information about refunds and/or exchanges is here.

The question is will Brad still go? He is in NYC for the weekend after meeting me on Thursday, ostensibly to do something with his brother. Coincidentally, Michelle from FLA now lives in NYC. Well I wonder. If not, my cousin Jim is interested along with Jimmy and a friend.

Live from Crossroads Coffee House

Not really but it is how we sounded when we did an open mike last night. Crossroads

We did this one too



We also did this song with Matt singing.



In all it was fun. We were by no means the worst; in fact we might have been the best. We were certainly the oldest :-)

Song we are trying to do

We are talking of doing an open mike this Thursday. I am for it but Kim seems like she is getting stagefright. She nixed a bunch of songs where she sings lead.

I like this song very much especially the two part harmony. I sing the lower part.

Louvin Brothers

BTW I have no idea who Coffee is
