[B]I was angry when I watched the "Americanization of Miko" episode and Jo was telling Mrs. G that the Stray Cats were a really "hot new wave group"--and Mrs. G said, "why does their lead singer have green hair?" I yelled, the Stray Cats were NOT a "new wave" band, they were ROCKABILLY--bringing back the early rock 'n' roll sounds of the '50s (i.e., NOT one of those skinny-tie bands with the synthesizers, etc., in the early '80s) < I was born in the 80's my earliest memory is that Thompson Twins "Hold Me Now" video. They were into the synthesizer-wierd-hair thing. (and just for the record A-Ha's "Take On Me" video is the coolest!) |

[B]The shoplifting ep when the girls give Mrs. G that Hawaiian shirt and she tells them she loves it then right after they leave Blair tells Mrs. G she should return I was like that's mean & rude the girls took time and well no money to get her that shirt even though she should take it back. Also in the ep where Jo is working at that bike shop and she is dating a guy that works there and then she starts acting helpless I was like Jo come on this isn't like you, you would never stoop this low even for a guy.< -Yeah, returning a gift within 15 minutes of gettin' it is totally rude. Every gal knows the rule; SOMEONE BUYS YOU AN UGLY ARTICLE OF CLOTHING-YOU WEAR IT ONCE IN FRONT OF THEM-AND THEN THROW IT IN THE BACK OF YOUR CLOSET! -Yeah, Jo and the word helpless do not go together. Show that geek how to fix a Porsche right! |

To marymarat,
Didn't want to confuse you about what I said in regards to '80s new wave bands--I LOVE 'EM TOO!! In fact, we have a program here where I live on Sunday mornings, they play all '80s new wave bands for 4 hours, a show called Resurrection Flashback Sunday!! I just wanted to point out that the Stray Cats were not a "new wave" band in the sense of the Cars, the B-52s, A Flock of Seagulls, Psychedelic Furs, Thompson Twins, the Go-Gos, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Smiths, Love and Rockets, etc., they were, for back then, considered "retro." I GREW UP ON NEW WAVE--AND IT'S STILL GREAT!!!! THE 80'S HAVE RETURNED!!!! |

Oh I LOVE 80's music! Especially because I was a teen then. So many tunes bring so many memories flooding back. Especially anything by Van Halen. I'm talkin David Lee Roth VH. Oh baby, I had plans for he and I. Almost met him too after a concert but my friends weren't old enough to get in. Boo hoo!
If DLR ever reunites with VH, I AM THERE!!!!!!!!!! (even though he doesn't quite do it for me anymore.....hehehhe! VH is nothing with out him) |

Eva, I actually got to see VAN HALEN--WITH DIAMOND DAVE--open
up for Black Sabbath in 1978!! MAN, THEY WERE GREAT!! That first album was KILLER!!!! "Running With the Devil", "Eruption/You Really Got Me", "Ain't Talking 'Bout Love","I'm the One"--Van Halen's set was AMAZING!!!! Eddie Van Halen was the COOLEST guitarist on the planet at that time--they mopped the floor with Black Sabbath!! No wonder Ozzy left! (He was fired) But Sammy Hagar was okay--he just didn't have Dave's FIRE!! |
