I guess SONY will have to learn not to use the same "template" for all their artists' Web sites.

I think we should all join the mailing list so we can exchange Horowitz sightings.

Yeah Horowitz gave a private concert at my house the other night for free!  Wow, I'm surprised his fingers still have the same good ol skill since his last trip to the casket, they didn't fall off!  AMAZING! I gotta ask him..but it's his secret.
