The Tubes would be a lot of fun I think!  White Punks on Dope!  There was another story involving that same girl and music, but probably not something I should post in a public forum.

You guys are bringing back some concert memories...There was a girl I liked, and she liked Loverboy... so I ended up seeing them with her.  Not one of my favorite shows.  I think Billy Squire opened for them.  They used to have free concerts at Se...
