Re: “Matt Costa coming to Lawrence”

Redding/Cropper, to be precise. If he's into all of those other sixties acts, he surely knows this.

Re: “The top 5 bands we'd like to see new albums from, and the weird shit we would buy to pay for it”

Half of me would love to hear a new one from The Kinks. The other half is terrified that it would suck and tarnish their legacy.

Re: “Classic Pop Songs: misinterpreted”

What're the odds that Lennon "regretted" writing RFYL after he hooked up with Yoko.

Check out Gary Puckett & the Union Gap's stuff. Seems that half their songs were about underage girls.

Probably the most famous misunderstood song is Springsteen's 'Born in the USA.' Most people assumed it was a knee-jerk pro-American tune, even Ronald Reagan who tried to co-opt it when he ran for re-election in '84.

Re: “Camera Obscura at the Bottleneck”

I got there late and didn't see Princeton. I see the picture, but it would've been nice to read at least one paragraph about their set.

Re: “Rock of Pages: How the Beatles Destroyed Rock 'n' Roll”

How's this for a bald assertion: If it wasn't for The Beatles (and the resulting British Invasion) the 60s would've totally belonged to Burt Bacharach and Motown.

Re: “Norton Records Launches Blog, Podcast”

Kicksville 66 is the best individual music blog I've ever read. Miriam should update it more. If she ever wrote her autobiography, I'd buy it.
