I’ve started reading this book I picked up at Comic Con called Space Opera. The premise, so far as I can tell, is that the survival of our planet rests on the results of a singing competition. Seems like we’re going to send a washed-up glam punk to represent the best of the best. Apparently other planets value performance and pizazz over pure vocal ability. I’m trying to imagine who I would submit as my choice in an intergalactic sing-off, but there are too many choices! I think I’d need a better sense of the judges…
Maybe we’ll find a contender in our shows next week. We’ve got lots of great options. The return of Sir Sly to Los Angeles tops my list, but I’d also highly recommend checking out the LA debut of G Flip Tuesday night at The Echo.
