It’s election time and perhaps it’s time to make an endorsement. But I don’t want to endorse a candidate. I want to endorse a rock star. So Q.R. Station endorses Lenny Kravitz as the coolest dude in the universe. I had the pleasure of checking out Lenny at the Orpheum in Boston last night. Lenny just is the essence of cool. The man is his music and he enjoys playing his stuff.
I’ve seen Lenny before at the Orpheum. The last time we saw him there he had a visitor, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. It was interesting to see that not long after that Lenny joined Aerosmith on tour. For me, Lenny is the ultimate rock star. Rock and roll is not dead when it’s in the hands of Lenny.
But let’s get back to cool. Lenny doesn’t just play his music, the man grooves to his music and draws everyone in with him. At the Orpheum last night, everyone was standing from the moment he walked onto the stage until he walked off of it. Both times we’ve seen Lenny at the Orpheum he has left the stage and walked through the crowd. Man, the crowd loves him. Lenny was sending a message last night, and he sent it with Let Love Rule. Lenny grooved that song with the audience for at least a half hour.
If you ever get the chance to hang with Lenny, I suggest you do it.
