First trip to '79 in nearly two months--August 23 was the last time here.

Hoping we get a deep track off Armed Forces--maybe Party Girl or Two Little Hitlers?
Let's get right to it.

not a bad start, familiar tunes, but not Katrinas.  Kind of feel like some Tarney-Spencer myself.

Bonus segue points: the Who Cincinnati tragedy into A Message To You, Rudie (and BOS while we're at it).

Time to straighten right out...

I may have mentioned this before, I was visiting a girl in Cincy two weeks before this happened & we saw the Eagles in that venue.  She kept bumping into friends of hers & I swear more than one asked her if she had tickets to the upcoming Who concert.

also of note, I took a Greyhound on that trip & from Indy to Cincy I wound up sitting next to a good-looking blonde who turned out to be Don Felder's cousin.

speaking of Cincy, I see Dusty Baker's agreed to manage the Reds next year.

That's good, 'cause he was pretty useless sitting in for Joe Morgan as Jon Miller's sidekick on a couple playoff radio broadcasts I heard in the past week.

VHM to "We Are Fam-ah-Lee," great October song, evocative of the '79 Pirates (Willie Stargell, Dave Parker, John Candelaria, Kent Tekulve ...)

And when you're useless in comparison to Morgan... that's SAYING something.
