Sorry!
I'm snowed in in somewhere north of Milwaukee in a quaint little town called Port Washington, where I've spent the last 4 working days dinking around at a newspaper and publishing house. I was supposed to be in Mankato, MN, at 9:30 am tomorrow, so I'm thankful that the snow spared me the six-hour drive there (and back).
So, I'm sitting in a hotel room with little to do (aside from more work, or post about the AMAZING but under-attended Knitters show I saw at the House of Blues on Friday, or seeing the Ramsey Lewis Trio in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Unitarian Temple on Saturday) than mine YouTube for grooviness.
In what might be one of the best lip-synching performances of 1983, here's The Three O'Clock on MV3, playing "With A Cantaloupe Girlfriend":
The Three O'Clock again, this time ruling on "Sorry". Lead vocalist Michael Quercio went on to join various incarnations of Game Theory, and lead guitarist Louis Gutierrez joined Mary's Danish:
Here's the definitive edition of the late, lamented band Game Theory, led by pop genius Scott Miller. This one's from their LP Big Shot Chronicles. I highly, highly recommend their Real Nighttime and Lolita Nation LPs. Real Nighttime's available on Amazon, if you can swing the 25 clams it'll set you back.
Julie Ritter, David King and Louis Gutierrez of Mary's Danish perform a live acoustic version of "Dodge City."
