Whitesnake Sued Over Fan Puke

A Whitesnake fan is demanding £10,000 in compensation after she slipped in vomit during a concert and suffered injuries to her knees, neck and back.

Yeah, and I want  £10,000 for being subjected to "Here I Go Again" at least 5,000 times throughout my life. I'll never get that time back.

Of all the things to sue over.

Donald Fagen - "New Frontier"

When cable television came to my neighborhood in 1984, I watched MTV for hours on end. At age 13, I knew nothing about Steely Dan or the "red scare" of the 1950's, but I loved this video for "New Frontier" By Donald Fagen. It used to mesmerize me every time it aired. The upskirt shots of the girls in the video didn't hurt. I was 13, after all.

In case you were curious...


This song, "No Promise Have I Made" by Hüsker Dü, is where I got the name of the blog. The song comes from the 1986 album, Candy Apple Grey.
