6 SEPTEMBER 2005: SLIM JIM PHANTOM REBROADCAST

If you want to read my account of ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY at the Hollywood Bowl, it's on my Toodler blog:

I really think someone should take this idea and run with it: to sell Mardi Gras beads as a fundraiser for Katrina and also that there is something we can all wear to show our sympathy.

I missed the very beginning of the show. I came in on a Rod Stewart show. I probably missed his birthday bash report... I will have to catch the rebroadcast.

Faces,
Sham 69, BORSTAL BREAK OUT
Edwardian Connection, SOMEBODY"S GOING TO GET THEIR HEAD KICKED IN TONIGHT
Shakin Stevens,

Someone named McHaggis is on. (Not really!) A drummer who is of Irish descent. They both used to like Shakin' Stevens???

Jonesy picked these songs out special for the guest.

The guest is married and has a daughter, I believe. Jonesy wonders if the guest has ever had a woman try to change him, and then give him the old "fiddlers elbow."

The guest does not share Jonesy's penchant for farting. The guest wonders if special measures are taken, or if Jonesy is naturally flatulent.

Jonesy is smarter than when the drummer first met him.

From drinking Smart water with effervescents, says Jonesy.

It's Slim Jim Phantom from Stray Cats. They are talking about his nickname and how he came up with it.

"That's the great thing about when you are young, you say these stupid things and they stick, and they're brilliant." Jonesy opines. "Then life kicks you down a few times, and you start thinking 'no, that sounds stupid.' But really, it's brilliant."

"Yeah, and you get it tattooed on yourself...Back then everyone was 'Rotten' and Viscious and so forth... And you are responsible for that," he tells Jonesy.

They are applauding all of the Veteren's. Apparently today is Veteren's Day. This must be a re-broadcast.
 
Nope, it's a re-broadcast, and the stats can be found on the first link down, another jonesy's jukebox blog. It's from 11 November 2004. So I will keep listening, but sign off...

GOD SAVE JONESY!
