"Last Dance" -- kinda cliche but appropriate. 

Beasties have gotten more 10@10 play this month than they did in the previous 30 years.

I wonder if the same thing happened when Roy Orbison passed.

Ha! well, the "Big Wheel" probably still had early-'60s years on it in 1988. And he may still have been doing "50s Fridays" then.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

"Listen to the Music"
was it the drummer?

Ironically, yes.


Q: What do you call someone who hangs around musicians?

A: The drummer!



RIP Doobie drummer....
