A couple of friends of mine--one in the UK and one in Australia--were talking about this band and about its leader Steve Harley. Posted a clip of one of his tunes that I really liked: sounded like late-70s Nick Lowe and Rockpile. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRZ6LaL-MNI But then, I looked a little deeper and heard some early stuff that was totally fabulous glam. http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-psychomodo-mw0000010994 I wanna investigate. So, if any of you all have much knowledge of this guy and his band, please feel free to unload it here. I think that I want to dig in to this discogr

I have to ask: Is this you, Louie? It's a mural in Rogers Park, right across from the Red Line Tap. Click the thumb, and you can see that there is a name under the portrait that says "Berkman." And it sure does kinda look like our Lou? And if I remember correctly, you've been a long-time fixture in that neighborhood. So…?

Just freshening up this thread because the show is Sunday afternoon. Rogers Park. Hope to meet some of you. Thanks.

And yet Justin Bieber still can't get any love. So there is still a glimmer of hope.

I had no idea about all the hits that Graham Gouldman wrote for others BEFORE 10cc: Also: and Admiration and fandom growing exponentially.

Lumerians - The High Frontier

When he delivered the Top Ten list in the middle of the whole Satanic Verses thing? I remember laughing my ass off at that little surprise. "If you need me, I'm staying at the Waldorf." Totally lost it.

I have that album on the iPod in my car so songs come up on Shuffle every now and then. Totally adore that record. I played "Why Not Your Baby" at a Gene Clark tribute show a few years back, too. One of the great underrated geniuses of all-time.

Now THAT is a bill I can get behind!

Alt-J - An Awesome Wave And, now playing (as I can't put the image in my previous post):

I think the wife (a Deadhead) and I might go catch the RatDog/Dwight Yoakam show at Ravinia.

$50? $75? Something like that. I don't go to too many big shows anymore. Hate the big crowds and they ARE so expensive.
