Can't speak to the Blondie or David Jo tunes, but are you sure he hasn't played 2-4-6-8 Motorway? I could swear I remember hearing it once years ago.
Let's get right to it.

Not in my experience, and I'm always surprised by that, since he always trots out "Glad to Be Gay" every Pride Set.

And Dave's ignorance of the NY Dolls and Johanssen's solo stuff is just criminal.

I wonder how things would have turned out for me if 1978 had sounded like this in my world, and not like Barry Manilow and Anne Murray.

You'd be straight, married, father of 3 and banging your secretary.
