Katie Couric First solo female anchor of the weekday evening news on CBS and a former co-host of NBC's Today show for 15 years...
...disappointing. Green, whose career plodded steadily forward after he entered the anti-folk scene in 1998, has recently garnered a lot of face time because of his appearance on the “Juno” soundtrack with former Moldy Peaches bandmate Kimya Dawson.

Patience’s’ expressive solo “Love is a Plaintiff Song,” perfectly paired with the articulate woodwinds, was exquisite. But perhaps the oppressive feeling of the caricatures is inherent in any Gilbert and Sullivan production and is itself testament to the Players’ historical accuracy. “Patience?...
