Re: old bands with youngsters in 'em (from Twig)
Twig sez:
<<Re : British invasion...SEEING legendary British artists with ALL YOUNG unknown sidemen..what could be worse? imagine meeting them ! " Yeah, IM in the Animals" arghhhh>>
This reminds me of a show we went to in '97, somewhere way out in Pennsylvania at a theater-in-the-round....it was Jefferson "Starship", which is Balin/Kantner/Casady, Prairie Prince, and a VERY YOUNG girl (in her 20s) named Diana....she was great but it's a little bit off-putting.....also on the bill: "Steppenwolf", which I put in quotes because it was John Kay (who was GREAT, don't get me wrong) plus a bunch of poodle-hair metal boys in spandex....and finally, on the same bill, Procol Harum.....which was Gary Brooker and Matthew Fisher (both fantastic) plus three kids who looked like they were entering a Nigel Tufnel Lookalike Contest.
The whole miserable story of that show is on my website, with pictures:
