Gerry Todd would live this:

Expect individual videos to be posted here as time goes by. And maybe sooner.

I saw The Police. 24 years and 1 week after the last time I saw them. And you know what? They still rocked all these years later. And most importantly, they had me screaming like a loon when they sandwiched “Regatta de Blanc” inside “Can’t Stand Losing You” near the end of the show. Rock & Roll is fun.

They appear to be done with North America, where most of my loyal readers reside. But if they wind up playing near you, you really should go see them. They still have it.

I’m not sure what floors me most about this. I think it might be Cindy’s hair. But the unexpected cameo of a not-directly-related Austin musician caught me off guard, too (Hi, How Are You).

Anyway, it’s Zeitgeist (I mean, The Reivers) c. 1985. And it’s Austin how it was even before I got here full-time. Check out Croslin’s Rangers shirt. It just goes to show that sincere underground rockers loved baseball long before pitchfork put together a fantasy league.

Oh, and… MAD DOG AND BEANS! The best burger you probably never got to taste. Sigh.
