March 16: David Byrne’s new album, “Grown Backwards.” Includes 2 duets with RUFUS WAINRIGHT. Instant orgasm.

March 19: theatrical release of “Dawn of the Dead,” an “update” of the classic Romero film (which is in my all-time Top 10 fave movies).

April 26: DVD release of Robert Altman’s brilliant film “3 Women.” I remember writing to Criterion and demanding they put this on DVD, and damned if they didn’t.
