This Is Actually Possible

TITLE

I go out walking almost everyday as part of my cancer post-op therapy

I go out walking almost every day as part of my cancer post-op therapy. My doctors tell me it's going to be a long road, but I'll get back to something resembling full recovery. There are times when I don't believe This Is Actually Possible.

I'm currently in Montgomery, Alabama. I'm working on a dance musical called Double Time which takes place in the past and present simultaneously. On Saturday at 1:30 pm we have a concert reading of the work. Yesterday's rehearsal went very well. We've been working on this show for over five years.

For a long time I thought that what we were attempting was crazy. I now believe This Is Actually Possible!


...and This Is Actually Possible

You will hear a Nile Rodgers song today. It will make you happy.

Today's pop music—genre-crossing, gender-bending, racially mixed, visually stylish, and dominated by dance music with global appeal—is the world that Nile Rodgers created. In the 1970s and 1980s, he wrote and produced the songs that defined that era and everything that came after: "Le Freak," "Good Times," "We Are Family," "Like a Virgin," "Modern Love," "I'm Coming Out," "The Reflex," "Rapper's Delight." Aside from his own band, Chic, he worked with everyone from Diana Ross and Madonna to David Bowie and Duran Duran (not to mention Mick Jagger, Debbie Harry, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, Prince, Rod Stewart, Robert Plant, Depeche Mode, Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Grace Jones, Bryan Ferry, INXS, and the B-52's), transforming their music, selling millions of records, and redefining what a pop song could be.
