Semi-Lemming

Apr 01, 2008 22:30

Feeding off an idea that eriktrips found worthwhile, I am finding it interesting to post a few videos that cover a period in my life when I was finding out just what I was about musically and stylistically. Though eriktrips covered quite a bit of my own experience, (the Furs, Joy Division, etc) I 'd just like to add ( the following )

video, 80's, patti smith

So were you thinking of Baby Judy or the Dolls? (thanks for the link to that clip, complete with Don Kirshner! Now THAT takes me baaack! I loved DK's Rock Concerts and Wolfman Jack's Midnight Special - got me thru the 70's!

Also stopped to enjoy McColl and the Pogues. Always spend a chunk of March listening to the Pogues ... Ooo! and Nina Hagen!!!

Big girl! Actually, the late nite rock shows were on here in the mid-70's so I was 9-14yo. It was about the same time that the original (and funny) Saturday Night Live was happening. Rock shows on Friday nites (followed by horror movies - YAY!) and SNL on, well, Saturday Night. I did not see many weekend mornings as a child.

No, I've never really considered IMing - it's one technology that I just can't warm up to for some reason.

Oh, and here behind the Zion Curtain we didn't get the rock shows 'til probably a year after the rest of the world got 'em (and only at midnite). So I was 9 in '75 when I got to see that Dolls clip. And that's the truth, thrrrrppphhhhtt!

Seriously, K- had never hear "meanwhile, back in India ..."?

Re: No IM lisagail April 3 2008, 04:10:12 UTC

nope to sk

okay then email me from whatever email address you have at home, so that i can just pester you while you do whatever you are doing on the internet- otherwise i have to be oh so quick with the lj responses
