"half my life's in Vogue's hidden pages..."  I'm VERY tired of hearing "Dream On" on in both '73 and '76.

Given what a slam-bang job Bob did with 1980 yesterday, this '73 set was a tad pedestrian. Enjoyable, but no surprises.

VHM gender-bending Macca. "the major was a lady suffragette"

How does supporting womens voting rights make it gender-bending?  It makes the Major a bleeding heart liberal, not a cross-dresser.

I've always interpreted it as "the major was [revealed to be] a lady" (who was a suffragette). There weren't a lot of actual lady majors back in the day. But that's just my weird imagination.

There's something delightfully Pythonish about this line.
