I looked up the lyrics to “Rubber Biscuit” once. It still didn’t make any sense.

If it don't bounce back, you go hungry.

Parties in college would dead end when SNL came on.

GREAT show and then some.

“Thirty years for me.... Since Phil Hartman left..... Loved The Sinatra Group!”

My husband reminded me that it has been way more that twenty years since we quit watching the show. Twenty years ago would have been 2003. By then, we had ditched the televisions altogether. LOL! When you get older your sense of time is a bit warped. My, how time passes!

Yep, our party would come to a screeching halt at 2330 hours and all would pack the living room for SNL. Ah, to be 22 again...

Great cover band in Columbus Ohio in the early 90’s.
They even arrived in a old squad car.
Probably the best night I had in a bar not working.
Victorys on high street if I remember correctly.

Saw them at the Universal Amphitheater in Hollywood when it was open air before they ruined it. Fun time.

Yeah, I saw them at Radford University when I was there in '87. Great concert!

Was funny on the show and then the movie. But when it comes on the classic rock station instead of Sam and Dave, I gag.

Enough already.

Do classic rock formats play Sam & Dave? They and their songwriters, and musicians are very underrated.
