26 July 2010: it's... 1972!!

The Lou song was NTM as well, but really great.  Despite his Edgar Poe-inspired performance that  Bumbershoot in 2002 that we quickly bailed on, I really do like Lou.  I mean, check him out in Sun City:

Thanks for reminding me about "Sun City" -- one of the great political singles of all time and one that actually made the Top 40.  Must put this on the AL request list.

Watergate:
Here on KSAN, Scoop Nisker was all over this when it happened, but it seemed like the main media ignored the story until after the election.  When did those of you in different areas hear about it?

I remember hearing about it some time that summer, definitely prior to the conventions. Can't recall what media was covering it.
