Principessa

There was a tribute concert to Diana on Sunday night. It is a little odd to think that she'd now be 46, and to hear her sons introduce Duran Duran as "her favourite band". It makes some sense, for the time in which she lived and the age at which she died. And yet, because she was so attuned to what real Britons enjoyed, without fear of sullying herself with "pop culture", it makes no sense at all. She'd have been listening to Lily Allen, last year, before she was popular. And you'll never convince me she'd be a Fergie fan.

So the question is, who do you want at your tribute concert?

I'm thinking, in order to accurately reflect my life, the following would be among the performers:
  • Sarah McLachlan
  • The Tragically Hip
  • Feist
  • Ani DiFranco
  • Guster
Hmmm. Maybe what I need is a really good cover band. Or (cover your eyes, true music snobs), Maybe Zach Braff could just DJ? Because it's really more of a mixed tape ...
