...opening song from what is still possibly his greatest album, Crash, Matthews spiced up a set largely drawn from Crash with a few old standards and unreleased songs. He shied away from the material on his latest album, Everyday, save for the two obligatory monster singles “I Did It” and “The Space Between.” Matthews’ band was incredibly tight, each member playing their part with aplomb and fading into the background skillfully for the songs where they were not featured.

These characters are not alone in the sport. George Foreman advertised his grill in the post-fight interview of his controversial loss to Shannon Briggs. He’s gone from the silent and scary monster we saw in When We Were Kings to the cuddly teddy bear on infomercials. The Shakespeare-spewing Don King may be evil, but I bet he’s always the life of the party. Mike Tyson may have odd eating habits, but he is not boring...
