And Swellegant (on FB) has reminded us that the late Sylvia Robinson is probably a good bet.

So looking forward to the set.
After lunchtime, heading to Shoreline for the Rockstar Uproar Fest, http://www.rockstaruproar.com/city/mountainview/
should be a hard rocking day/night with Avenged Sevenfold, Three Days Grace and Seether + more.

AL mentions that it's been too long since we last hit this year. Truer words were never spoken: the last '73 set was May 16.   But I noted that, in the two weeks between June 15 and 28 (just prior to the onset of the Dark Ages), we hit '72, '74 and '75. Man, those were the days...

Without doing the research, I'd suggest 1970 has the longest 'drought' of any year 1965-2003.

indeed, it's been ages since a 1970 set. (May 12th, to be precise)

Was hoping that I'd be around to hear some of this set live, but just found out that our pasteurizer is arriving in about 10 minutes, so I'm guessing that's a no. Hope to make tonight's replay. And hope AL gets to play a few of those lovely requests she got yestiddy.

Avenged Sevenfold


saw a clip of them recently and LOL'ed -- they look like an SNL parody of a bad, tattooed nu-metal band. Eeek.

VHM Heartbreaker.  I'm sure it's a frequent flyer for some, but one of the strongest socially conscious/tender/rockin' songs they've done.

Oh my. I have had their CD. Listended 2x. OK. Now I'm worried. I was hoping to stay sober today. Have VIP seats and DON'T want to sleep through it. Did I mention I was "sleeping" thru the entire Giants final game on Sept 28? Too much pre-game festivity.
