...subject one's busty female self to the brutality of the sweet science? Anne Vitiello, a former amateur and a commentator for HBO's boxing website, calls boxing an "archetypal experience" that transformed her life. With sharpened clarity and a less combative nature ("It's easier to get your boss coffee when you both know you can break his nose"), Vitiello says in the course of her years of boxing she found a successful freelance career, marriage and motherhood--a pretty good return for getting punched repeatedly...

Perhaps feeding on the randomness of the whole evening, Guster produced a crowd-pleasing rendition of Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion," complete with full my-life-is-in-your-hands crowd surfing by Ryan. With Adam Gardener on guitar and vocals and Brian "Thundergod" Rosenworcel at the bongos, the Guster trio played a varied set of songs from all three of their albums--the latest and most well known being _Lost And Gone Forever...
