After three days of Lollapalooza, I kind of don't want to think about music right now. Fortunately for those of us who are sort of burnt out at the moment, there's not a lot going on. I'll be at the Rufus Wainwright show on Friday. I'm not in love with his new album, but as a Rufus (and Martha) fangirl, I'll go to the concert all the same. Maybe I will love the new songs more, seeing them live.

Better late than never, the saying goes, and the saying is certainly true for Rufus Wainwright with his latest release. Milwaukee At Last!!! captures a 2007 performance by Wainwright at the Pabst Theatre in, you guessed it, Milwaukee. Two years later, the project has finally seen the light of day, just in time to capitalize on Wainwright's increased visibility (due to the premiere of his first opera) and perhaps to tide his fans over while he steps back into the studio to record his follow-up album to 2007's moderately successful Release the Stars.

Five facts about Rufus Wainwright.
