I didn’t catch all of last night’s “SNL” episode, but I did get home in time to catch both Frank Ocean performances. He was joined by John Mayer (who has thankfully ditched the cowboy hats) on guitar, and…all I’ve got to say is, watch out in February, because Frank is starting to look like 2013 Adele come Grammy time. I’d say that, at the very least, Best New Artist is wrapped up. ( our review of Channel: Orange ) Seth Macfarlane was a pretty good […]

The Singles Bar: “Shadow Days” by John Mayer
