That's okay. I will not mock thee. I saw Prince in San Antonio in 1982 and I thought it was one best live performances ever. Since you brought that revealation to the sharing circle, I respond by saying I thought ABBA was kind of cool with their charming hooks and harmony. Knowing Me, Knowing You and SOS are wonderful pop songs.

But I draw the line with ABBA. I don't like The Carpenters or any of that other smarmy 70s poppy stuff. Give me three chords and a cloud of dust. To quote Sterling Morrison of the Velvet Underground, "I like my music STUPID!"

Oh, Hillary! Forgot about her for a moment. Yeah, she was geared up for the cameras today. Left her brain at the door, however.

Is there *anyone* whom you did NOT see in the early 80s???

Excellent philosophy. And I do have to admit that I feel humbled and almost inadequate re: music compared to you.

Well, it was either the brain or the cankles. Not enough room in the building for both...
