I liked Cyndi Lauper also. The last time I heard anything about her she was writing songs and singing somewhere. It was on one of those VH-1 specials. Loved the song Time After Time.

She performed at the Gay Games in Chicago last summer (in support of her sister, among others), and is currently on tour. I think she will be in Chicago for a show next month.
