Happy Anniversary "X"

 Friday, September 25th Marks the 30th Anniversary Of The Release Of INXS Seventh Studio Album ‘X’

Look Who Just Turned 30!!!

Founding Member Andrew Farriss Recalls Massive Success of Album

Singer/Songwriter Andrew Farriss celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the multi-platinum selling album 'X,' released on this day 30 years ago from the world-renowned band, INXS. Farriss, a founding member of the band, played keyboard and provided backing vocals and other instrumentation. With INXS, he has sold over 60 million records, received multiple Grammy nominations, and an induction into the ARIA Hall Of Fame in 2001. 'X,' INXS’s 7th studio album, was released on September 25th in 1990. “I can’t believe it’s been 30 years since the release of the ‘X’ album,” shares Farriss. “As INXS, we knew we had to have the right songs to follow up on the massive success of our previous album ‘KICK’. I love the energy of the ‘X’ album. My favorite songs are still “Suicide Blonde,” “Disappear,” “Bitter Tears,” “Who Pays The Price,” and “Hear That Sound,” plus having blues music legend Charlie Musselwhite playing on the ‘X’ album with us was awesome!” 'X' served to further the tremendous success achieved by the band with singles such as "Suicide Blonde" and "Disappear". Mystify, a documentary released in March of 2019 details the life and untimely death of INXS frontman Michael Hutchence in a one-night U.S theatre showing. The documentary remembers Hutchence at his most vulnerable and artistic states. For more information and to view the 'Mystify' trailer visit YouTube and Rolling Stone. Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story of INXS, released in 2014, gives fans an inside look at what unique star qualities carried INXS from Australian pubs to sold-out stadium tours around the world. In July of 1991, the band sold out Wembley Stadium in the UK, playing the show of their lives to over 74,000 fans. The concert was captured by over a dozen film cameras and the original audio and video were simultaneously remastered from the original 35mm film and re-released in 4K UHD and other digital and disc formats earlier this year.

A true testament to the timelessness of 'X' lies within the millions of people who still revisit it’s signature sound 30 years later. Outside of INXS, Farriss continues to embark on a solo career and bring healing music to long time fans. 'Love Makes The World,' Farriss’s 5 song EP is to be released on October 2, 2020 through BMG worldwide.

It's "National Comic Book Day" Woot!

Yee Haw!
Wonder Woman

When I was growing up I used to be an avid Comic Book fan. As I got older not so much, but I still have fond memories of the hours of escape they provided me from the world. (given the current state of it perhaps I should go back to reading them) - My two favorites were Batman and Wonder Woman.

Thus you are bequeathed an image from the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984 to celebrate today, Yay! 

If you can't figure out why Wonder Woman read what I wrote above. It was supposed to come out in June but because of the pandemic it has bee postponed until Christmas day this year. Fingers crossed that it does not get bumped yet again, but I have a hunch it will 😟

That being stated I can't wait for it to actually premiere it's the only movie based on a Comic Book I want to, and will see coming up. As I stated I outgrew my fascination with them and thus I see few films based on them. "Yes" I am discerning.

T.G.I.F. Minions!

You Are Always On My Mind
Michael Shinafelt

Well the scale tipping point has finally been reached, the time has come to focus and lose those pandemic pounds or be victim to gaining more of them and getting bigger. To think I was 50lbs lighter and in great shape this time last year...Good news is, I did it once, I can do it again!

Racist Genies come from a moonshine bottle

Am I the only person who loves Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy but does not like Schitt's Creek? 

There's not enough saliva in my mouth

Zendaya FTW, Yes!

Oh, that's so pervy...oink!

Congratulations Zendaya!

She Is The Champion
Zendaya 

While award shows, especially The Emmys are not high on my priority list, I just had to watch them last night in light of the current state of the world to see how they would transpire.

One of my main issues with The Emmys is they usually celebrate work that I have no interest in. Well I am glad I watched last night because one of my favorite actors won for one of my favorite shows.

That's correct Minions, Zendaya won The Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for Euphoria. Congratulations Ms. Thang, it was well earned!!!

Not only that she made Emmy history by winning for her first Emmy Nomination and being the youngest actress to ever win the category. Not to mention she is the second Black Actress to ever win it, the first being Viola Davis in 2015.

I can't wait for season two of Euphoria!

Sunday Sinema: Ivansxtc

Danny Huston, Peter Weller and Lisa Enos star in this biting satire on the behind-the-scenes of the Hollywood film industry, with all its drink and drug-fueled excess, from director Bernard Rose (Candyman, Paperhouse). Opening with the death of its titular protagonist, ivansxtc goes back in time to chart the final days of hot-shot Tinseltown agent Ivan Beckman (Huston) and his fast-paced, wheeler-dealer lifestyle, which will ultimately lead him to an early grave after a shock cancer diagnosis. Loosely based on Leo Tolstoy's celebrated 1886 novella The Death of Ivan Ilyich, and featuring a searing performance by Danny Huston at its core and wonderfully sleazy turn from Peter Weller as Ivan's biggest client, ivansxtc is a powerful meditation on life, death and morality set against the glitzy backdrop of La La Land.
