Another SF band... saw them a few times and loved their first and only album (Fun Terminal). Kind of more urban, little more punkish B52s vibe, but without the vocal chops and a little more ragged... also put on a great show. I googled them, and it appears they have done some reunion events... the lead male singer now looks exactly like my 80somethign jewish grandfather did.... which doesn't make me feel too young.
Always been a fan of Yes, but the way Chris Squire has handled things lately has made me less interested.
You kick two lead singers out of your band because they were sick, and "could limit their ability to make money?"
I remember when MTV first premiered the video for this. I think they played it all day non-stop, but with the band members in slightly different poses.
I would go 5 more rounds - I just dislike waiting days for picks when more than 1/2 of the drafters are on and ready to draft throughout most of the day.
Saw these guys a few times. They put on a fun show. They headlined SF Punk Homecoming last fall, which was a two day festival of old West Coast punk bands. We passed on it because they didn't sell one day tickets.
I remember that place wella nd I remember getting a kick out of seeing the album for the first time. I got a much seedier vibe from it as a young teen than I did from the other arcades I'd frequent (there were a couple around Fisherman's Wharf) that were close to public transportation. I remember going in there with my 2 gbs and being the first one to realize that other "kids" were sizing us up. I got us out of there pretty fast and back to the safety of our suburban 7-11.
My favorite old arcades in the City were the big one mid-Market between 7th and 8th and the one was on Broadway across the alley from the Mabuhay. the arcade on Market was open after bar time and would attract a sleazy clientele at all hours. The one on Broadway was a good place to go between bands at the Mab, On Broadway or The Stone.
If this is "dance" I may be changing my pick.
Maybe it was a stretch with the "dancing" in the title. I have no problems throwing it back and picking a more representative tune.
I thought the same, but the picks just came to me.Boy oh boy. Country and Rap/Hip Hop just aren't my categories.
So we have Bobby Brown and Don Henley in the ashole club in this draft. Anyone else?
Happy to participate
Revised pick - still maybe not pure dance/disco, but seems consistent enough with others picked in the category.
I realize I'm not the target demographic but a lot of dance music only sounds good to me on the dance floor. It's too repetitious to listen to otherwise. This is one of the few house tracks that I love outside of its natural surroundings.
Henley was my guilty pleasure and I agree. I generally dislike his music and he speaks with the pompatus of Henley but has done some good charity work and showed a sense of self-deprecation when he performed Don Henley Must Die on-stage with Mojo Nixon.
