Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 25, 2013 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Cheap Trick played at the Palladium a few days before or after that Patti Smith show. I went to that show too. It was also finals week, and thus the tone was set for the next four years.

Saw Patti Smith in Central Park, September, 1979 when they still did regular shows there. I don't remember much but can't blame alcohol.

Speaking of NY parks -- interesting to see when I went with a friend of mine that her friends from years ago still show up reliably and informally in Washington Square Park playing music in that non-stop scene, and she could join right in again.

This was the only Devo song the punk band I was in was able to cover. Ted, the drummer was about 10 years old, so he was able to sing some of the synth parts.
