@sugarwolf: The first is meeting and dancing with the woman I would later marry (who is not sugarwolf) during a marathon show by Dave the Spazz. Another is when Ari Up crashed my show mid-program; I just happen to have the Slits' version of "Grapevine" with me, which I played, of course! A third is when, back at the old Upsala house, David S. Ware pushed my car out of the snow.

@P-90: Lorna never recorded "Losing My Mind," as far as I know. Also, I once stayed in a hotel room in Memphis formerly occupied by David Gest. Or so the legend goes.

Gaylord, are you talking about the Memphis hotel room I think you're talking about, or a different one? And if it's that one, how do I not remember the David Gest rumor?

Gaylord, Here's a personal one: Is your wife jealous of FMU?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:46pm
Gaylord Fields:

@P-90: I've never seen Pete Best's paintings. But I have talked to him; he was nothing like the taciturn, brooding and aloof figure he has been depicted as.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:47pm
Gaylord Fields:

@Matt F: The one and the same; the Talbot Guesthouse: I think it billed itself as the Best Boutique Hotel in Memphis.

How can you beat the "Whammy"? Was there collusion from the producers? Wasn't that Jack Barry, who had been involved in the $64,000 Question scandal?

Zappa didn't dilute his coffee, just line after line of dark roast, so he'd have to do more and more to get off.
