I'd forgotten about Dr. Hook.
They were...OMG.<br /><br />I'd forgotten about Dr. Hook.<br /><br />They were clever in a whacked way -- their name always made me laugh, and it makes me laugh harder now, since, well, since I'm not 16.<br /><br />Bwha.H.

The mostly glam-type (of which I was not) adolescent audience lustily booed them off the stage, except they wouldn't leave the stage. <br /><br />As you suggest, they seemed to be "up for anything," and seemed to enjoy -- or at least be oblivious to -- annoying all and sundry. <br /><br />One image that is seared into my memory is that of the guy with the eye patch... how to put it... playing air guitar, so to speak, with his privates, in a manner calculated to mock the disapproving throng. If memory serves, this was in order to give added onanistic poignancy to a drawn out version of the weeper, Sylvia's Mother. I will admit that I was too chemically altered to assess their musical merits.Gagdad Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14249005793605006679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-47637210895762712192011-10-21T22:46:28.632-04:002011-10-21T22:46:28.632-04:00Do you suppose they have any memory of that?Do you suppose they have any memory of that?Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02284936021406079076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-63319174419913131602011-10-21T16:53:48.633-04:002011-10-21T16:53:48.633-04:00That was beautiful, manThat was beautiful, manJChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02448124833598565813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-61423190869508073712011-10-21T14:45:34.181-04:002011-10-21T14:45:34.181-04:00Sipp I have a little tune over at mine you may or ...Sipp I have a little tune over at mine you may or may not like.Thudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320037763190473684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-19350645600363553062011-10-21T14:17:38.736-04:002011-10-21T14:17:38.736-04:00As proof that Dr Hook is "up for anything,&qu...As proof that Dr Hook is "up for anything," I saw them live in my home town in the seventies. <br /><br />Unusual?
