    In reply to British Sunday Times Writer Who Thinks New York City Pretty Much Sucks: A Formal Response
    Oh Foster, come on now. I know this is all slightly tongue-in-cheek, but it feels like you are cranking up the isolationist factor in hopes it will get picked up by the Sunday Times: " New York Blogger Attacks."
    Yes, London has crap service and none of the convenience New York has, however it really is a more global city and has some gentle civilities that are usually lost on residents. Forgive me, but the difference between my minicab driver's courtesy on the way to Heathrow yesterday and the asshole cabbie who picked me up at JFK and then yelled at me for giving him a non-cash tip has left me feeling fragile.

    Whatevsies, Foster, the people have a right to know that last time you came back from London you were all best weekend of my liiiife and I'm in lurv with a girrrrll and ooh I recorded a Vimeo of me singing and strolling down the riverrrr and also you went to some market with fruits and veggies that you were all into but I'm more hazy on those specifics.

    But don't deny your true feelings. All the Jay Z YouTubes in the world can't change the forces of nature.

    The set looks like some sort of orgy-themed Rube Goldberg machine. Somewhere backstage a coffee machine just switched on.

    Everything is higgly-piggly or whatever dumb word you have for it. We live on a grid. A grid.
    Yeah -- every fucking corner in NY looks like every other fucking corner. I can ID my location in London within two seconds, but New York remains a mess of 90 degree angles to me.

    Booooooring!

    It's as if Jonathon Larson lived to write The New Mel Brooks Musical Young Frankenstein, and got Shirley Bassey to play Froederick after an all-night helium bender.

    I can take massive overhype, as long as the product can actually deliver. His singing sucked. Does he have anything else to offer?

    Next year, he and Madonna will perform a duet of "Respect Yourself," while Lady Gaga fucks him in the ass and he pees in the mouths of Clay Gayken and Kelly Pickler. I sooooo can't wait.

    I live in Berlin.

    Not a WEEK, not a fricking WEEK passes without some by-numbers article in the NYT or elsewhere stating that Berlin is hip. These articles are usually written by people who don't even speak German and wouldn't know what the actually scene here is like if it bit them on the arsch. Often the jist of these articles is: "Berlin! It's just like New York with cheap rents! There are artists here! And internet startups!" as though that weren't the case in every bloody major city in the Western world.

    I love this city, but it's ludicrous to say it's outstripping New York.

    You would think that since he's ripping off Bowie, Queen and AC/DC the song would have been better.

    @heywhat: Yeah, my problem with his performance was that he sang off key the whole time. Granted, it's hard to sing in tune while simulating sex and various bondage scenarios (or, um, so I would imagine...), but Lady Gaga at least managed to incorporate some good vocals--as well as flaming gays AND pianos--into her performance. Lambert just looked like he was trying too hard.

    Still, I give him an A for effort, if not execution.

    The Electra "AC/DC" comparison is apt! Apt I say.

    As with most things, Bowie did it better.

    I like how they drop out the audio at the 1:00 mark, like "hey now, cover your ears so you don't see this."

    Honestly though? This guy has Vegas act written all over him (not necessarily a bad thing).
