It's prog rock, dude!

A sure sign: Before I knew the Drive was going to 1971, I was humming B.J. Thomas's "Rock & Roll Lullaby" to myself.  Wonder if Bob has that in his repetoire.

More to the point of tonight's concert, I wonder if he'd ever play something from Kantner & Slick's "Sunfighter."

As a tangent, I owe several snaps to Geoff for posting the Chet Helms party info, which allowed me to do this preview for tonight's show:

http://villagevoice.com/nycguide/ev75506,6.html

 Jefferson Starship
B.B. King Blues Club & Grill
237 W 42nd St
New York, NY 10036
Times Square
Phone: (212) 997-4144
www.bbkingblues.com

The never-ending aircraft of Paul Kantner, Marty Balin, and backing crew is joined for this “Galactic Reunion” date by vocalist-keyboardist-bassist David Freiberg. Freiberg sang the hell out of Quicksilver’s “Pride of Man” at a recent Chet Helms tribute in SF, so expect that and some Robert Hunter gems. VIP ticketholders schmooze with the band at 6pm.
(MCCOMBS)

Price Info: $35

BOS J Geils! "Lookin' for a Love"! Somebody help me now!

Bay-bee! the Woofa Toofa Goofa Loofa is making my morning!  That one will be hard to top.

HM to J. Geils, their version was a lot more fun than Bobby Wo's.

And why would you put all the tea in China in a bag?  Wouldn't it just seep out?

Yay!  Got in early on a Thursday & it's not in vain!

"Man with insight, man in granite."  That could do for my epitaph.

but that's what the honey's for... to sweeten all that tea. I guess. Now if Bob'd follow this with Helen Reddy's cover of "Crazy Love"...

HM3 to this Zep song that might be "Misty Mountain Hop" but I'm not sure.  It's one of the few LZ songs that I'll stop what I'm doing to listen to.  Was that an electric piano playing the riff to kick off the song?

Oh my yes. As I think we've discussed before, the album was 12 instrumentals all named after signs of the Zodiac.  "A very important album in it's time."

I got to go with Jonathan Edwards for my BOS today.  Jsut hte kind of song I needed to hear to day with my CEO & 2 other VIP's lurking around my office for the next 2 days.

"He can't even run his own life, I'l be DAMNED if he'll run mine."

That would require some stretches:

Supremes, "No Matter What Sign You Are"

Frank Zappa's making-fun-of-disco-cokeheads song that goes, "Let me guess: You're a Libra."

Something wrong with my speakers at home here.  I don't have time to trouble shoot too much, but I can't hear the set.  :cry:   If the new damned cat has done something to my wires, I'll be  :x

Rudy Ray Moore's "Zodiac" album:

(I can't post the images here, which may be for the best.  He illustrates what Leon Haywood would later describe in "I Wanta Do Something Freaky Ta You" as "all 12 positions of the zodiac sign," a sort of astrological kama sutra.)

er... no. :wink:

I know "pull-quote", but not "scare-quotes". I was just quoting one of Dave's favorite 10@10 phrases.
