All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.

I just watched parts of the Muppet Show over the weekend and there is a character Crazy Harry who just loves his job. Very politically incorrect-just like Steve Martin song.
Andre you know I don't give a fig about politically incorrect :)
USELESS TRIVIA: Your saxophone soloist is Lou "Blue Lou" Marini, slide trombone is Tome "Bones" Malone and I THINK the bass player is Donald "Duck" Dunn. All long serving house band members at SNL and later part of the Great Blues Brothers Band as well as each in their own right.
Can't make out any of the others well enough (damn trifocals)
I always figured Animal was modeled on Keith Moon. Frightening that anyone would think of me and Keith Moon in the same category. But, I guess I can't deny it.
Here's some more trivia. I used to play drums in a band modeled on the Who. The guys in the band ASKED me to play like Keith Moon.
To ask a drummer to play like Keith Moon is like taking a kid to the candy store and telling him to eat as much candy as he possibly can.
I loved it.
That gig was the first time I started to understand the meaning of "groupie", if you know what I mean.

By the way, Andre, Animal on the Muppets has always ben one of my personal heroes.
I have it on reasonably good authority that they tried to model him, as close as they possibly could, on Pastorius.
LOL! and thanks for the trivia.
