'Sweet Warrior' is such a well-played group effort that it's only slightly disappointing that RT's playing solo tonight. Having seen him play both solo and with a band for over 20 years I know it'll be a good one.
I read and like Kurtz's work, but must confess to feeling a bit uneasy about him being employed as a media reporter by both The Washington Post and CNN. If it's not a direct conflict of interest, it sure smells like one. Is he really going to give us the straight dope on either place or would he feel the need to pull his punches?
I'm sure he's aware of this line of thinking and has a readymade response to it.
He always has a book out. If he ever came to Lawrence or KC to promote it, I'd be there.

Howard Kurtz is my friend

Tim Finn's blog @ the KC Star's site reported that the show was canceled, possibly due to slow ticket sales.
