During an April 1 preview show for 123 people at the Los Angeles club the Troubadour, which helped propel the band to fame in the 1980s, Mr. Rose fell off the stage and broke a bone in his foot — thus the throne for a month of recuperation.

On a Nerdist podcast a few years back, Taffer discussed his time spent as the manager of the legendary Los Angeles club, The Troubadour, in the 80s and I instantly imagined him in screaming matches with people like Henry Rollins and Lee Ving over their onstage antics.

In 1970, for example, when the singer took his first trip to Los Angeles, he did indeed raise the roof at the Troubadour, as the movie suggests—but not with the song we hear, "Crocodile Rock," for the simple reason that it was not written until 1972.

"A Song for You," Donny Hathaway live at the Troubadour, Los Angeles, 1971 Among the dozens of showstopping versions of "A Song for You" — by Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, even Mr. Russell — there isn't one more sublime than Donny Hathaway's solo encore in Los Angeles, in 1971.

Days before Elton's make-or-break, first-ever U.S. show at the Troubadour in LA in 1970, Bernie Taupin met a woman named Maxine under bizarre circumstances: she was the sister of the flatmate of the woman that a guy in Elton's band called to borrow a hair dryer.

Between the Whiskey a Go Go and The Viper Room, the Roxy, and Troubadour, long-haired young men braved a relentless world of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, being courted by corrupt A&R people while dark excesses waited around corners, and peroxide groupies handed out flyers.

For Ms. Sullivan, whose past shows include tributes to Peggy Lee and Marian McPartland, "A Night at the Troubadour" is a brave leap into the unknown and an acting tour de force in which she slips in and out of the minds of desperate rural characters struggling to survive.

For good measure, toss in the cool breeze biopic "Blaze," about gone-too-soon Texas troubadour Blaze Foley, and also the recent episode of "Black Mirror" starring Miley Cyrus as both a meta version of her Hannah Montana character and a robot who retains her Miley-ish essence.

Their selections give us, in largely chronological order, Delacroix the talented student; the portraitist of his loved ones and of big cats; the illustrator; the misogynist bachelor and Orientalist; the frequent star of the Paris Salon; and the painter of religious commissions and of slightly naughty (but highly salable) troubadour paintings.

Those who like anchors of annotation with their artistic experiences will be pleased to learn that this production features a alto-harp and guitar-strumming troubadour in the form of Elvis Perkins, who shows up to sing gnomically of the follies of identifying too closely with our places of residence.

"I have so many words on my heart that I want to say, but the most important thing I can say is thank you so much, and that I'm O.K.," Smollett, a star of the Fox television show "Empire," told the sold-out crowd at the Troubadour nightclub in West Hollywood.

One of the best songs on "Hotel California" is the Frey/Henley/Souther "New Kid in Town," a song they came up with while having dinner at Dan Tana's, a legendary L.A. restaurant adjacent to the Troubadour late one night after they saw Bruce Springsteen drop an atomic bomb at the Roxy.

Dr. Kanwisher agreed to my request, and I was ushered to the scanning room, in the basement, by Sam Norman-Haignere, a postdoctoral fellow and an author on the new report, who is thin and light-eyed and looks a little like a Renaissance troubadour, and Alex Kell, a graduate student with a cheerful smile and a blond beard.

If you're a fan of the later, more Americana-inspired era of Hause's band The Loved Ones or just like epic rock anthems, we've got a feeling you'll like this track: It's a got ripping guitar solo, relatable lyrics and a hook so sharp that Hause's fellow troubadour Chuck Ragan could catch a walleye on it.

Why the hell not!) and collaborators (various members of Leftover Crack, World/Inferno Friendship Society, Guignol, and the Hold Steady) was too much fun to resist, and their shows were always full of love and spilled beer, with Petersen—a working class punk, gravel-voiced troubadour, our gutter Springsteen—holding court at the eye of the storm.

Morse is actually a third-generation Haitian musician; Candio, his maternal grandfather, was a twoubadou (Kreyòl for troubadour, a singer-composer), and his mother, Emerante de Pradines, is an established singer, recording several albums of Haitian roots music in the 143s (now 97, she is in the process of opening a music and arts school in Port-au-Prince).

Elton John refused to 'tone down' the sex and drugs in 'Rocketman' Perhaps for that reason "Rocketman" has an episodic undercurrent to it, punctuated by moments of true splendor (John's transcendent, star-making 1970 performance at the Troubadour in Hollywood is depicted as literally lifting him, and the audience, off their feet) to the singer sharing a tender moment with his younger self.

He tells wonderful stories about being at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, where he stunned audiences who had never seen anything like him; of going to Laurel Canyon and meeting all those people whose albums he owned; of accepting Brian Wilson's invitation to pay a house call and being unnerved by Wilson's singing the chorus from "Your Song" ("I hope you don't mind") over and over.

A stout, goateed troubadour in a porkpie hat, Stew played both narrator and knowing foil to his younger self, a callow, bug-eyed teen-ager whose tussle with identity takes him from black bourgeois Los Angeles to the hash-clouded coffeehouses of Amsterdam and on to the Berlin punk scene, where he embellishes his racial trauma to gain cred with the avant-garde crowd.

For as long as we can remember Anderson Silva has been walking out to the Octagon to the sound of DMX's version of "Ain't No Sunshine," proving that in the right context (covered by the right rapper and announcing the arrival of the right fighter) even a song by 70s lite-soul troubadour Bill Withers can be terrifying, while at the same time establishing some consistency in a constantly evolving sport.

Sometimes we fight, sometimes we all laugh, and the whole process of getting this record out has been such a long and tumultuous thing, that when we played this album release show at the Troubadour on the 29th of January, I think this real big weight was lifted off all of our shoulders, where it was kinda like, we don't have to figure out all this business shit anymore.

There were only two outfits that Day felt had to stay true to the time and place they were originally worn: a silver-starred shirt under white bell-bottom overalls with star patches, which John wore for his first concert at the Troubadour, and, arguably the star's most recognized get-up, the super-sparkly Los Angeles Dodgers uniform designed by Bob Mackie that he wore for two sold-out 1975 shows at Dodgers Stadium.

One minute you're laughing at some joke Martin made about a moray eel; the next, you're listening to him nail what it feels like to fall in love on "Sing to Me," a gorgeous, crooning duet with Karen O. We're All Young Together took Martin on a tour of about 50 cities across the country, from a children's music festival in Philly called "Kidchella" to a gig in West Hollywood at the Troubadour.
