I thought it amazing that they were going to be at such a small venue. Spyro Gyra and Stanley Clarke will be there, also, fyi.
Also, you liked my post from a while back about HIGH FADE, from Scotland. They are coming back through … will be at Madison Live in Covington on 04/12/24.

Recorded in 1967. Six months later Jimmy Page stole it and his band The Yardbirds began playing it during their live performances. Two years later Page’s new band, Led Zeppelin, recorded it for their first album. A 2010 lawsuit was settled out of court.
Cool story !! ... Along those lines, if not familiar with him, you might enjoy this video about Terry Reid, who was originally selected by Jimmy Page to be the lead singer for Led Zeppelin. I've got several of Reid's albums and really enjoy them.

We’ve all heard lyrics describing Rosie’s measurements as 42-39-56. That’s a good sized woman. There’s another lyric which describes her as 19 stone. Stone being a British measurement of weight, equaling 14 pounds. That works out to 266 pounds. There’s one known photo of Rosie with Bon Scott.

I've seen The Cult many times and they are always fantastic !! They're still as good as ever !!
I just wish they'd play more than 90 minutes. Time flies during their show !!
Although I love every song they've done, here are my three (3) favorite songs:

Billy Joel's The Stranger. Still holds up. Get it Right the First Time would be a single for many; here it's the 9th best song.

When you want to pound some beers, and punch holes in the wall, I give you:
Deep Purple - Flight Of The Rat
Deep Purple - Flight Of The Rat
I came up (middle school/HS) during the advent of punk, and I loved it (other than the Clash and the Ramones), but I can honestly say that I never had a mohawk/stupid haircut, a bunch of hardware in my face, or Doc Martin's.
I DID have a pair of Vans (before Fast Times came out, and they weren't checkerboard, just plain tan canvas), but only because a friend of mine brought them to me from Cali, when he came back to visit his grandmother for the Summer, and knew I was into skateboarding. Nobody in KY, including me, had even heard of them yet. But Vans slide-ins were, and probably still ARE, the best skateboarding shoe ever made.
Punk "fashion" and mania, didn't catch on in Central KY until punk was already halfway dead anyway. And I'm glad of it. The irony of dressing like a British hooligan from Bristol, just to be edgy is anathema to the whole thing.
Like I said, I just liked to turn that sh*t up, get high, and skate in my friend's empty pool all Summer.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that early adopters of punk bands in this area (and punk is just stripped down garage band songs anyway, it was never actually unique) didn't really think about any of that sh!t. It was aggressive, it was loud, and by the time it came around, most of us were completey burnt out on Classic Rock/Heavy Metal because that is ALL you could hear on the GD radio (WKQQ)

Posted it before, but this video/song pretty much encapsulates early punk/skateboard/culture in Lexington, KY during the mid 70's and early 80's
BTW - skating in pools (gunite) is a LOT easier than it looks, provided you got the hang of the weight distribution and you knew how to do a 180 (which is pie)
