hey music lovers

thanks for the below in response to my dolls query ...

did they do a "don kirshner rock hour"  (or whatever) concert? i'd luuuuurve
to hear details of that. or even see it re-run on cable (vh-1 are you
listening?)  i have some video of da dolls in full flight in '73 on "beat
club" (german tv) and the u.k.'s one and only "old grey whistle test"

Not too surprising considering the state of music at that time in Texas.
Can you say progressive country? I remembering seeing them on Don
Kirchner's Rock Concert or something like that and, having grown up in a
sheltered Houston suburb, I was somewhat turned-off by the glam thing. I
think that most people who grew up in the provinces didn't really know what
to think of bands like the Dolls and Stooges. Frank Pugliese, 48 year old
singer for the Sons of Hercules has some pretty funny stories about growing
up in San Antonio and being a proto punk. Once he picked up a hitchhiker,
but when he saw Frank and heard the music coming out of the stereo (Stooges
I think) he asked to be let out of the car.

Well, if we're talking about the first song *heard* in '99 (not played),
then it was something by The Sonics around Midnight upstairs at Coney
Island High. It's hard to say exactly what since there was no actual
countdown up there and everyone's watches were set to different times. But
around that time I heard "Psycho," "Boss Hoss," and The Sonics' take on
"Money." Standin' around singing along were me, Deena, Ms. Miriam Linna,
and ex-lead singer of The Voodoo Dolls and Prime Movers, Mr. Cam Ackland,
all with big grins on our faces. Definitely a good way to ring in the new
year, singing along with some of the greatest music ever made. (By the way,
Norton secured the CD rights to the Etiquette material, so they'll have it
out in March.)

First live sounds of '99 for me were by The Real Kids. The mind is going
fuzzy but I think they may have started with "Better Be Good." Overall, a
great set. Though I'm bummed I missed The Devil Dogs around the corner, I'm
glad I caught this set. The Real Kids were pretty damn great. I was pretty
psyched they did "Everybody's Girl."  

After them it was downstairs with about 15-20 minutes to spare before The
Dictators took the stage... YEOW!  Certainly a great night of rock'n'roll!

Travel Points go to the girls who drove ten hours from Ohio for this night.

Cool Points to the woman I met who'd flown in from LA to hang with her
fiance and had her 14 year-old daughter along for New Year's. VERY cool to
see  a mom and daughter out rockin' to the same swingin' sounds!

PS I hear The Remains and the Lost are gonna play Boston in late Jan/early
Feb. Anyone know anything more?

Just got this one myself. Great album! I think I like it better than
