Rufus on Bravo

I don't normally watch the Bravo channel that often. But last week I recorded their Live at the Rehearsal Hall series, as it was featuring Rufus Wainwright. Watched the programme last night and really enjoyed listening to him perform material from his new album, Release the Stars. There's so much formulaic crap on the Top 40 nowadays that it's a real treat (and a breath of fresh air) to listen to someone as genuinely talented as Rufus. And his "Leaving for Paris No. 2" nearly stopped my heart.

Since he's Canadian, I'm also hopeful he might actually come and play Halifax one day.
