"I hate to make sweeping generalizations, but for the most part, you know what? Guys suck! I haven't met the right one yet!" Moore said Saturday. Dressed in a scooped neck black short dress and black tights, the chanteuse performed "Nothing That You Are, which she termed "the angry song" on her new album, Wild Hope. The verse "I can never do those things you did to me" is the idée fixe. A sampling:

"I heard you say / We were one and the same / Well wrong again / I could never do those things you did to me / I will be okay / In time you'll fade / Into nothing that you are."

Likely inspiration: Either tennis ace Andy Roddick (2002-2004) or Wilmer Valderamma, shortly before him.
