    One thing to remember about “One Hit Wonders”: They, at least, had a hit. More than what most of the bands playing in the various local venues can, or ever will, say. Same thing with “has-beens.” They, at least, Have Been.

    Oddly enough, there is now a company called “Cameo” where somewhat famous (and a few very famous – think John Cleese) people will create a video for people for a price.

    You know, now that I think about it, you never see an ex-president opening up a cafe, or coffee house. You’d think it would be a big draw, one way or another. Maybe they sell coffee in the Libraries.

    In this day and age of a million broadcast/streaming/cable shows it seems that everyone is famous… to their particular cult.

    Back in ’81 (I think) I was trying to get into a King Crimson concert (Frripp turned 75 yesterday!) & Toni Basil was waiting in the line to go in with date David Byrne!
