Rob Thomas climbing up a corrugated wall?
When reading through one of the most recent Rolling Stones last week, I was surprised to see that:
A: Rob Thomas was still around making music
and
B: his new album (Cradlesong) had a great review.
Then again, it was Rolling Stone, which has slipped in its taste a bit over the years and is a bit more mainstream than other music magazines available today. I haven’t heard the album yet and probably won’t, but I’m sure there are many Matchbox 20 fans still hanging around anxious to see what Thomas has in store for the solo stage. With the resurgence of 90s rock bands (e.g. Downtown Live’s entire lineup), Thomas may get a lot of attendance, but then again the Downtown Live shows are free and this show is $36.
Thomas even seems to be on twitter with 80,000 followers, a Chuck Norris background and very odd tweets, none of which have much substance. ThisisRobThomas (this is indeed the official twitter page of Thomas)
