I loved the Paradise.
Me too. I saw Los Lobos and The Replacements there in the early eighties ('83-'85).
Jon saw all the shows. We've already figured out all the ones we attended in common during my brief tenure in Boston.
Mal: You were dead! Tracy: Hunh? Oh. Right. Suppose I was. Hey there, Zoe.
'The Message'
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think that's it. I don't know if I still have the link, but I can post it at BR if I don't. I'll check when I get home.
That'd be cool. That was the most amazing live show I've ever seen. He had an awesome band for that show....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
That sounds great!
I am an ignoramus, but I'll see if Hec can post the song for you.
I wonder if it's about the Pigtown that is a B'more neighborhood?
Probably not -- he's from New Jersey (and has a ridiculous/heartbreaking song about that, called, shockingly, "I'm From New Jersey"), and when you hear the lyrics (which unfortunately aren't available online) it's obvious that it is a literal Pigtown full of actual piggy pigs. But if there's a Pigtown in B'more, then that's a lovely bit of serendipity!

I'll see if Hec can post the song for you.
Thanks, Nice Lady!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Here's the Tom Waits on VH-1's Storytellers show (which has never been officially released)

Memphis Minnie's "Pigmeat on the Line."
Oh yeah, there are a bunch of pickled pigfeet type songs in the blues catalog. Bessie Smith has one, I know.
Also the blues singer Pigmeat Markham.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Jon saw all the shows.
It ain\'t past tense for me! Although I\'m going to see Mission of Burma there next weekend, and Sebadoh at the end of March, so maybe there is some sort of temporal anomaly going on...

Dude, when are you not seeing a Mission of Burma show?
