I think that was some progressive gimmick that was supposed to get kids to learn more. I just found it depressing. But we had carpet!Sandi Trixxhttp://sanditrixx.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-72861048490963221062010-02-05T10:50:16.471-05:002010-02-05T10:50:16.471-05:00Cheap Trick!?

I loved <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sAm5UCJ9vA" rel="nofollow">Cheap Trick</a>, or was that <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6FDvH0b7II" rel="nofollow">Supertramp</a>? For some strange reason they occupy the same space in my musical filing system.<br /><br />Sadly, of all those I saw only the Bangles, much, much later than their heyday at Great Woods in Massachusetts (an outdoor stadium in the woods). We were deprived of a Great Adventure here.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12178771612031280593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-60096942481905701462010-02-05T10:43:28.280-05:002010-02-05T10:43:28.280-05:00You're from Plainsboro, Sandi?

The thing that struck us kids from lesser towns is that the West Windsor-Plainsboro high school was <i>carpeted</i>.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049833165464780021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-86853293616135093492010-02-05T10:32:50.302-05:002010-02-05T10:32:50.302-05:00Ahh, Great Adventure.

Form what I can remember there was Cheap Trick, Joan Jett, Winger(!), the Bangles, Davey Jones from the Monkees, and Bowser from Sha-Na-Na (I love doo-wop!)Sandi Trixxhttp://sanditrixx.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-70001837339935932852010-02-05T08:46:24.818-05:002010-02-05T08:46:24.818-05:00Hilarious!

It has perfect rock ballad drum riffs.C.

My friend had just gotten MTV and we lived in front of the television all summer.<br /><br />Remember the video for "The Search is Over"? Back before you had ever experienced real love, and you thought maybe, just maybe, it would happen like that.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049833165464780021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-3436992907559052682010-02-04T20:49:06.496-05:002010-02-04T20:49:06.496-05:00Seriously.

It occurred to me that I probably owed Marc about 3 summers worth of gas money; he toodled our gang all around NJ and never asked for a cent. Funny what occurs to you as a grownup that you never think about as a kid.<br /><br />Thanks for the blast from the past, Lynne!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049833165464780021noreply@blogger.com
