See Lenny Kravitz at the Nissan Live Sets Next Tuesday
Maybe it's cuz we're old and jaded and bored of everything humanly possible, but we're sorta loving these Nissan Live Sets on the Fox lot. Last month we saw PJ Harvey, Monday we saw Wyclef who danced inches away from us - on top of a freaking hand rail. The set looks huge online, but when you get there the sound is perfect and - well, it's just an ideal way to see and hear talented artists.
Today we're hearing about the next taping, which will be your boy Lenny Kravitz on Tuesday, 11/13. Lenny has a new cd dropping early next year, two of his new tunes can be heard on his Myspace. Hang in there for the solo of Bring it On - pure flying V gold.
When Lenny Kravitz first brought his hippie Hendrix-n-Lennon freelovebaby vibe to our ears with a little help from Lisa Bonet, who knew that love would rule for so long? But lo and behold there he is, 'fro a little shorter, but looking just as fine.
The first 200 people who email Invites@YahooLiveSets.com will get a chance to get thisclose to Lenny next Tuesday at the Yahoo stage in West LA. And you might even end up on teh interwebs.
