 Re: Do you play an instrument? Some nice hooks there Groucho. I could stand to see some lost places in the video. Night places like Ships or Delores Restaurant. Or The Source. Cocky Moons at the pier. Really stranded now.
So how was the band and what happened to it?

So how was the band and what happened to it? It was fun, thanks for asking and thanks for checking it out. We played the major clubs in Boston and had some radio play for "Meet Me in the Fallout Shelter" but somehow we never quite made it. I quit though after a while because the drummer was a drunk and also the lead singer's boyfriend so we couldn't fire him. Took him forever to learn a song and half the time at a gig he'd be drunk and lose the beat. As for the video itself, I don't know how to do any of that stuff. It took me long enough to learn how to do this much. Here's another one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ibjvEfE4Dw_________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com

Re: Do you play an instrument? Ah, me. I was remembering Old Los Angeles. That is a fine little rocker.  Who wrote the tunes And Please Don't Tell Me it was the lead singer? I've had similar problems. Something like "My Daddy owns Time Warner, so I Can Rip You".

This one got us a review that called us "Blondie meets B 52s": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP-_cCVGNm8_________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com
