Saw these guys a couple of years ago with The English Beat in Toronto. Great show!

Here you are Chicago. Thanks for the research Gray.

@grayishungry @Chisportsnut @EricIdle I saw Spamalot many years ago in Chicago. Happy to see it's coming back to Chicago!

@Chisportsnut @EricIdle It will grace us in Chicago from May 19th to 31st and tickets are on sale now. Come join us! 🥥🥥 broadwayinchicago.com/shows/spamalot/

Hard to believe 21 years ago today Spamalot opened on Broadway. I’m happy to say there’s a lovely production touring the US, currently at The Golden Gate San Fran and arriving in LA on the 24th at The Pantages.

@facedances3 nice!

@dancingvalentin My older brother worked there one summer and we got to go for free!

Went there often in my teens! The Demon was my favorite ride.

I was so sad to see this show end.

"Same Ole Love (365 Days)" but it's close. EVERY track on this album is amazing, from the first chords of "Sweet Love" to the final chorus of "Watch Your Step" youtu.be/F9dytLAEPYE?si… And check out our podcast episode, streaming now, about Rapture. youtu.be/QPrfWldhW20?si…

Happy Birthday Ruth Pointer! The eldest of the Pointer Sisters, Ruth sang lead vocals on their hit "Automatic" in that steamy contralto voice! Wishing her a wonderful day full of appreciation for all her contributions to the soundtrack of our lives. buff.ly/2Lv5GVH

Happy Birthday Vanessa Williams, singer, actress and former Miss America. She's on the ITG radar for her Grammy-nominated song "Save The Best For Last," which topped the charts in 1993. buff.ly/p6C73Uj-

Happy Birthdday Dana Owens (aka Queen Latifah). The "Queen" is on the ITG Radar for her cover of the Joe Zawinul-penned jazz classic Mercy, Mercy Mercy. Truly one of the best covers of this amazing song. Credit to Peter Erskine on drums! buff.ly/JlAqTgI

Happy birthday, @STUARTZENDER ! From those iconic lines that shaped a generation of acid‑jazz lovers to the unmistakable feel he brought to every stage, Stuart’s sound is the kind that stays with you long after the song ends. Here’s to the creativity, the soul, the swagger, and the unmistakable Zender magic that continues to inspire musicians! Here he is on one of ITG's favorite Jamiroquai songs, Manifest Destiny. youtube.com/watch?v=81VFzs…

Taking it back to 1992 ✨ when @INXS defined the moment at the 6th ARIA Awards 😍 A standout chapter in Aus music history, taking home Best Group for ‘Live Baby Live’ and cementing their legacy as one of the greats. This throwback compilation captures the energy, the impact, and the era that made INXS iconic - music that was bold, magnetic, and still hits just as hard today⚡ Don’t forget to VOTE for INXS for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (vote.rockhall.com) ❤️ #ARIA #ARIAAwards #1992 #INXS #90s #90smusic #bestgroup #iconic

Very cool! #ChicagoHistory

Double-Henge. The Vernal Equinox is this Friday and with that is the phenomena known as Chicagohenge. The alignment of sunrise and sunset with the Chicago east-west grid system. The weather will be warmer fortunately! High of 60 is coming!

@SprolesThe @itsthegroovepod It's good but I prefer the Right Stuff by Vanessa.

@itsthegroovepod Dave is fond of Vanessa Williams’ cover of the Isley Brothers classic “Work To Do.” What say you @dancingvalentin ? youtu.be/vwtLGFTrwLE?si…

🚨BREAKING🚨 Juliana Stratton has defeated 9 other candidates in the Illinois U.S. Senate Democratic Primary.

John Oates came up with the chorus to “Out of Touch” messing around on a synthesizer he didn’t really know how to use, thinking he was writing a Philly‑soul style song for the Stylistics. It became a HALL & OATES banger.
