Concert Review | M.I.A. at HARD NYC Festival

When I saw M.I.A.‘s performance on the 2009 Grammy’s, while 9 months pregnant and due to deliver that same day, two thoughts crossed my mind, either this woman is crazy or she is extremely committed to her fans and art.

Rosie’s Broadway Stars Sparkle, in “Once on this Island jr.”
The minute I received the invite to attend a performance by Rosie’s Kids, I pictured 5 year olds in tutus, and sunflower hats singing “You Are My Sunshine” followed by a medley of preschool classics. The way I saw it I’d smile and enjoy a cute little performance by cute little kids and while still riding high on all that sweetness I’d attend the after party at the penthouse and “treat” myself to a little grown up liquid candy supplied by sponsor Devotion Vodka. Imagine my surprise at being floored by a troupe of super talented young adults and pre-teens who in just one hour managed to restore my faith in the performing arts. Read more
