The hubby's band from the late 70s/early 80s is performing early next month at Abilene, a newish bar downtown. Although the Press Tones were "big" in Rochester back in the day, I'm honestly not sure if I ever saw them back then or not. They played Scorgies frequently; however, I typically went down there only to see a much beloved Spanish teacher's band, Personal Effects. (In retrospect, that must have been a huge buzz kill for her. A brief weekend away from her students only to see our fresh, underage faces adorning the audience of a dark, smoky bar.)
I was a closet music fanatic and, to quote Blondie, a "case of partial extreme." The Clash meets Karen Carpenter. More of a black nail polish/monogrammed sweater girl. Come to think of it, I still am like that.
Huh. The more that things change, the more they stay the same? Damn, that's two days running where I'm quoting Rush. Help! Plus ca change. Plus c'est la meme chose. Arghhhhhhhhh.

Is your many-named hubby playing with them???
Why do they bother printing tickets if admission is free?
you mean simon? yeah, he's playing!
and that's not a real ticket -- it's an online generated image that was supposed to look circa 1979-ish
didn't work, huh.
Dang. I'm going to be out of town that day. Would have loved to see nate/wally/simon in action.

Did I make Nate UP?
