It's too bad that going to DC on the Fourth is just about as crazy as going to see the Boston Pops on the Fourth.. then add heat and humidity. Good for Taylor.
Thanks for posting the direct link AH ! Wonder what he'll be singing ?

Margaux.....Hopefully I'll be watching from home,being in a crowd that size,in the heat is not for me either !
Here's a new press item on the July 4 deal:
