...that Sandler believes there's no such thing as carrying a gag too far, even if it means maiming the characters. Five of the album's seven weirdos/perverts end up arrested, beaten or dead (don't worry; the midget remains untouched). Still, hardcore Sandler fans worried that The Wedding Singer and Big Daddy signaled the end of his outrageous ribaldry should have no fear. One of the funniest songs, "She Comes Home to Me," is dedicated to a highly paid prostitute. Tender and heartwarming, you can see the singer's love for this woman in the beautiful lyrics...
...singer Louise Rhodes and multi-instrumentalist Andy Barlow--better known as Lamb--craft excellent trip-hoppy pop in an unmistakeably British style, like a less morose Portishead. That comparison, however, belies the nature of the duo's music. The soundscapes that Barlow creates behind Rhodes's voice refuse to gel into the standard trip-hop forms; bebop, drum 'n' bass and harsh techno beats all find their way into an eminently digestible mix. The band has undeniable indie cred: they've sampled Charlie Parker, scored a British hit with a song based on the work of classical composer Henryk Grecki...

Instead, the band brought along drummer Mikey Wilson, double bassist Jon Thorne and trumpeter Kevin Davy. Poor sound, especially from the drums, was an issue throughout the show, and the first song, "Soft Mistake," had to be abandoned because the reverb was horrendous.

Marcelo Rodriguez may be the only person in Los Angeles complaining of too much exposure. The Beverly Hills policeman had the dubious honor of arresting GEORGE MICHAEL in a public bathroom last year after the singer performed a "lewd act" upon himself. As if that image weren't scarring enough, Rodriguez says he then had to watch himself mocked in Michael's video Outside, in which men dressed as cops danced and kissed each other. Now the officer of the peace has declared war, filing a $10 million lawsuit against the singer for slander, mental anguish and emotional and physical...
