Ah, for the days when Bruce Jenner wasn't a scary elderly woman.

or associated with the skanky Kardashians. ewww. when the whip comes down indeed.

"a gay in NY is just a fag in LA"

a song about male hustlers, correct?  Sorry if that seems obvious, I just never really heard the words before.  So 53rd Street was the place?

Comcast On Demand is driving me crazy the last few days.  They show teasers while you search for what you want to watch, and lately they've been featuring some horrible Kardashian thing that makes me want to run screaming from the room.

didn't we hear "Surrender" somewhere recently?  VHM anyway -- a true classic.

BOS, DEVO. 

78 is my least favorite 70's year.

Not really feeling this set.  And I've liked a fair # of AL's 78-79...I guess this one isn't "new wave-centric" enuff for my tastes.  Can't say no to Devo...but they're pretty 'trinariffic by now.  Same with Surrender...it seems a bit deja-vu-ish.

53rd & 3rd -- as featured in the Ramones song of that name (and also Rod's "Killing Of Georgie"). there were several hustler bars and in good weather the "boys" would be up'n'down the street.

Yeah, after yesterrday I was hoping for another bustout-y collection. Well, at least we avoided "Mr Blue Sky" and "Dreadlock Holiday"...

Yeah, Tom Petty can do that.   :-\

I thought there was lots to like. But I can be pretty easy to please when it comes to 70s mainstream/radio pop and rock.

My BOSes go to Bob Welch, Bruce, Walter Egan, Devo and CT.  HMs to EC, Stones and BeeGees.  (Tom Petty gets diddly).

CT is playing that Bone BBQ on Aug 20 (Stone Temple Pilots headline).  There's an outside chance I may go (b/c of CT, naturally).
