Although I can't see the link, I thought I'd mention here the silly little thing Stewart said about the opera when he was talking to us in Dallas. He was trying to conjole us all into going to London for the opera and he said that it was going to be awesome. Jokingly, he told us he's trying to talk them into letting him sing in it...the whole thing, in fact..."even the girly bits." Then he said he didn't think the world was ready for that yet. It looked like he was about to burst into song when this tiny young symphony handler type lady slipped up next to him and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Copeland, you have to go now." Then she wisked him away to what was probably a schmoozy champagne reception with big time donors. (They had to cram all those kinds of things into the one night.)Thus the world, or at least the people in the foyer of the symphony hall, were spared Stewart's vocal stylings. And us Nutters were deprived a good laugh.

I can get it too though that doesn't really answer your question Sockii since I'm in England too.

It's a short interview with some nice stills of SC looking gorgeous as usual in a stripey shirt.

I wonder if e-mailing it to you would work? Send me your addy if you want to try.
