I know it's PBS pledge-drive time whenever I see some old pop stars recreating their hits for a few minutes and then this guy shows up to pimp the premiums. Tonight it's a bunch British Invasion acts, some of whom have members who look kinda scary. But not annoying. TJ Lubinsky, otoh, is incredibly annoying.
I used to see Oliver Lake and Jarrett w/Dewey on PBS. Then it was Lawrence Welk reruns (which are actually occasionally cosmically...something, somehow) and walking-dead big band-era peoples, and then pre-rock safe folk.
Now it's the Tremloes, a frog-looking Eric Burdon sitting on a stool, & TJ Lubinsky telling me how valuable it all is.
And if all this goes away, I'll begin to miss it when?
Oh, cool, Eric Burdon's got up off the stool. And Rod Argent's moving his fingers on a solo on "Time Of The Season" in a way that kinda sometimes matches what is being heard, which I don't see why they couldn't to the same thing to Colin Bluestone's pitch.
Baby Boomers - we suck a lot sometimes. I'd not mind for it to all just stop, and that definitely includes TJ Lubinsky. This guy actually just said "help us preserve our generation for history".
Shuh, YEAH.
