The Peak, 12/4/06: It's 1976
« on: December 04, 2006, 07:12:23 AM »
The rosebuds learn to bloom in early May, says Stevie, but I'm freezing my jambag off here in December.  Still, BOS to "As."

WOS to the Ramones, "Beat on the Brat," unpleasant to my ears any time of day but especially on a bleary-eyed Monday morning.

Er, it's December in NY, bub -- didn't you just have a week of near-70-degree weather?  

Me, I'm sorry to have missed "Beat on the Brat", Mr. Crankypants.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

"She's so good she make a dead man come": Tom Waits predates Jagger by a good 5 years.

Well, yeah.   :oops:   But I rarely look forward to winter's arrival.  And it's arriving today.

Sounds like "NY State of Mind" was an appropriate choice, then. :wink:

The guys who runs hollywood-elsewhere.com posted some Xmas-in-NY pics on the site today (he splits his time between LA and Brooklyn) that made me quite nostalgic.
