Ah, you beat me to it Mary!
Cheers Chrissie!!
A vegetarian restaurant in Akron?? That sounds like a vanity project! :o)
Part Joni, part Grace Slick, part Nick Lowe. She rocks and rocks hard. Remember when The Pretenders first LP came out?
Many Happy returns.

You got a shout out I think you missed...
Scroll down for a while...
:-)
Holy moley!
I had never seen that video before. It was great.
Thanks, Mary.
Chrissie is also playing a show in town that weekend with her brother's band, 15-60-75 slated to be the warm up.
If you've never heard the "Numbers Band", you folks outside of NE Ohio have really missed something.
More here if you're interested...

hee hee! Steve, I did miss the bikini comment!
Thanks. Before I got there, I thought it was me that was being talked about when right wingers love the Boss and Pretenders and this is an obvious sign of brain damage or such intense cognitive dissonance as to leave the conservative listener semi paralyzed and stuck semi paralyzed and stuck semi paralyzed and stuck semi paralyzed and stuck
Oh well, you get the joke.
Thanks for the heads up!
