Streisand Sunday

Color Me Barbara, I'll Be Your Mistress Tonight

While I do enjoy Barbara Streisand in her many endeavors and career makeovers let me state I am not cuckoo for her like most men who, well love other men.

To be honest I am not bonkers over any gifted performer anymore, I merely admire the talent and think how cool it is that the person has it.

However here is a side of Barbara S we haven't seen in years and is quite fun, not to mention, shall we say sexual.

Leather Makes The World Go Round

Streisand, as I always at some point thought she should have simply gone by this moniker a long time ago, like Cher, Madonna or Kesha. Does have a playful, not to mention naughty side. One that might even make you want to call her Mistress.

The ubiquitous one did a film a spell ago titled, The Owl and The Pussycat with George Segal & the synopsis goes like this:

Can a bickering odd couple in Manhattan become friends and maybe more? Owlish Felix is an unpublished writer who vents his frustration by reporting to the super that the woman in a neighboring flat takes the occasional payment for sex. She's Doris, more wildcat than pussycat, and when Felix's peeping-tom-tattle-tale routine gets her bounced from her apartment, she knocks at his door at 3 AM, aggressive and ticked off. They yell, lose another apartment, and pick up where they left off in a friend's flat and beyond. Dancing by the light of the moon seems unlikely for this owl and pussycat. 

Hey Cher, I'll Show You A Tramp, Without The Gypsies & Thieves

Oh my! Payments for sex whatever will they come up with next?!

In honor of her decades long career, chutzpah and recent number one charting album Partners I hereby declare today Streisand Sunday and bequeath you with these rare photos of Mistress Barbara, grab a Mimosa at brunch and toast. Cheers!

Surprise, Not! DEVO Goes Hardcore

Yes, They Are Men, It's D-E-V-O! DEVO Partners With PledgeMusic For Release Of: "Hardcore DEVO Tour Live" Is it any surprise that DEVO is still being innovative and breaking all the rules? Yeah I thought not. "She sends out an aroma of undefined love It drifts on down in a mist from above" - "Girl U Want" DEVO

DEVO has partnered with direct-to-fan platform PledgeMusic for their upcoming live album release. The American rock band, who broke onto the scene in the 1980's with a string of hits such as "Whip It," will be making a live album and DVD from their June 28th performance at the Fox Theater in Oakland, CA during their recent "Hardcore DEVO Tour." DEVO will be involving fans in the process through their PledgeMusic campaign. During the tour, the band played seminal, experimental songs created before the band released any music on a label and rose to fame. The tour honors original band member and longtime DEVO guitarist/keyboardist Bob Casale who passed away earlier this year - a portion of the tour's proceeds will go to his family. The "Hardcore DEVO Tour" resurrected the early creative efforts that first brought the band together. DEVO Hardcore LIVE will document this once-in-a-lifetime experience and be released as a CD, DVD, vinyl and Blu-ray deluxe disc with bonus features. Pre-orders of the CD/DVD will allow fans to engage with the band during the album making process, providing exclusive access to behind-the-scenes photos, videos, tour artifacts and more. Pledge your support at http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/DEVO Nuff' Said "We can't believe that we are working with DEVO on this amazing campaign!" said Benji Rogers, President and founder of PledgeMusic. "This project is truly about the music and the hardcore fans. By going beyond just the radio favorites this makes the whole thing an incredible journey for those super fans who have been following the group since their early days." Gerald V. Casale of DEVO said, "I'm not noted for being optimistic but the Hardcore DEVO Live horn 'o' plenty (DVD, Blu-Ray, CD, Vinyl LP) has me genuinely high hopin' as we mix and edit a truly DEVOlved show. One for the ages!" PledgeMusic is the world's leading online, direct-to-fan music community, offering artists a unique way to engage their fans in the music making experience whilst interacting with PledgeMusic's global community of music fans.
