As Good As It Gets

Paul Westerberg on Saturday Night Live back in '93.



I remember watching this from a barstool when it first aired and thinking "That's what rock n roll is supposed to look and sound like."

Beautiful.

If you

Were a pill

I'd take a handful

At my will

And knock you back with something

Sweet as wine

Abso-fucking-lutely.

Anyone who can sit still through that has to be dead.

Who's in the band?

Works for me. But whenever Paul decides to rock it works for me.

Steve - I remember it well, as it was the first time that I saw someone that I knew from the local scene on national television! (David Minehan - geetar on left - late of Beantown hood rats The Neighborhoods. Darren Hill was in The Raindogs, IIRC, but they were before my time.)
The 'Hoods played a short reunion set at a book launch party I was at the other night, and WHAM! POW! - it was 1990 all over again. Rocked.Their.Asses.Off. Love that dirty water!
