Too bad they weren’t around when you were booking shows at the frat. Instead you had to settle for pussy bands, like Nixon’s Head, and that reggae band. They were better musicians, but word is the Head packed better weed.
We crossed paths in college for 1 year, 1 stinking year before I dropped out seconds before officially flunking out. You looked like a 12 year old when we first met, a young-looking 12 year old. You became my “son,” but you were older and wiser than me, in more than enough ways. What did I have over you, beside a few months, the ability to kick your ass, and probably a little more comfort with misery and aggression? We laughed our asses off and created our own little world. We created possibly—no—without a doubt the world’s greatest drinking game. Remember how it went?
Wow. Pretty cool. Just flyin’ our freak flags man.
So much here that I’d like to respond to but I’ll keep it to these:
• That cover band sounded a lot like Pink Floyd and The Talking Heads
• To be fair, I look at least 13 in that photo
• Those Heather Locklear moments in Hooker were from the same episode and took up more then 2 minutes. Concrete evidence that Stacy Sheridan, Captain’s daughter or not, was one hell of a cop
• Did not expect the Rundgren thing. Was expecting something else more obvious. Well played.
FYI- I’ve got an email into Zmed (“Boy Romeo”), to see if he can hang down in The Big Easy with us. Would fit in nicely with his cop jacket adding to our Fonda and Hopper jackets. Then it would feel like we’d only be one construction worker shy of a Village People costume party.
Thank you Mr. Moderator, father and friend.
As for the lack of over-the-top comments featuring praise, admiration, gratitude, awe and such I say,
Enough about me. What do you think of me?
JK (as the kids say).
For those who continue to rock. I salute you.
Happy Birthday, Mr Maudlin! Thanks for keeping this place running and thanks for designing such a kick ass album cover.
Happy birthday!
Have a great birthday!
As they all the kids says — You’re awesome!

Ooooo. I like that singin’ Ting in a way that I used to like Debby Harry.
Happy birthday! Thanks for keeping the lights on and the riff raff out!
You’re not old; you’re mature.
