...What I didn't get was why the brothers don't ever have a war against each other. There are two that have curly hair. The same two play guitar. Don't they try to kick each other out of the band...
...Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour movie, which earned $31 million its opening weekend a year ago, and in fewer theaters.

Stick around for intermission, where I'll regale you with banal observations about what the band is playing and between-period gimmick contests...
