The show at Madison Square Garden on the 21st of February was the best bad luck John and co. could have had on the Sob Rock tour. Down a drummer and a vocalist, John puts together a last minute setlist and creates a truly magical, acoustic driven experience for those lucky enough to see him at MSG on Night 2 of his New York City shows. Capped off with a banging full band set featuring guest drummer Questlove.
Basado en un exitoso musical de Broadway, "Rent" es una ópera rock galardonado con 4 Premios Tony y cuyo libreto recibió el Premio Pulitzer en 1996. Su autor, Jonathan Larson, falleció la víspera de su estreno de un aneurisma de aorta. "Rent" narra la historia de un grupo de jóvenes bohemios que tratan de abrirse camino en la vida en el día a día del barrio de East Village, en Nueva York. Estos amigos se esfuerzan por alcanzar el éxito y la aceptación, mientras soportan los obstáculos de la pobreza, la enfermedad y la epidemia del SIDA.
Nick Broomfield and a documentary crew visit Pandora's Box, an up-scale house of bondage on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue, where clients pay $175 an hour to be subservient to mistresses. Mistresses talk about their craft; a few clients, usually masked, are interviewed as well. Then, the camera watches sessions organized around fetishes: rubber, wrestling, corporal punishment, masochism, and infantilism. Mistress Raven, the owner of Pandora's Box, explains that pain need not be part of the subservient experience: it is, at its root, a transfer of power. After their session has ended, clients talk about how drained, relaxed, relieved, and at peace they are.
