So Melissa and I are walking past “Chrome” at Santa Fe Station, getting ready to check out the Dark Knight (yes Ledger is good as the Joker…Oscar worthy?  Not from where I sat.)  and who do we see/hear doing a sound check?  Why, it’s Bo Bice, of American Idol fame!  Sounded good!  Great voice, very rockish sound.  I expect that gig will be sold out.
