Ooooooooh! Thanks for your little swipe Paul, I love you too. Thank you for reminding me that I am obviously getting older than I look, so c'mon girls lets hear it for Ron. I look young don't I? Well, quite young even?

Maybe not girls because that would mean going off at a bit of an angle as opposed to the original thread! Ah well, I think I look young so there! OK back to thread... Itch and Scratch it!

I was only referencing Lt. Pidgeon's short-ish career and only having 2 hits and you still recalled them non-the-less, Ron.  Some more------

The Cafe Racers ( early Dire Straits)

Bonzo Dog Band

The Sparrows   ( had more luck after changing name to Steppenwolf )

The Doobie Brothers

How, about the "Twiddy Fritters"...No, I just made it up. I liked the sound of the name....I know,.....their trademark is every one-hundreth music fan gets an Krispie Creme donut. Their number one hit..remaking of the Beattl'es "Good Day Sunshine" song. You know those hair loops for pony tails, Couldn't you see an "Fuzzy one" called... The Twiddy Fritter with "Pops"..make the last one pop beads. Werid???..Yes. Esp if they were lime green.

As for the "now" group, afraid I'll have to postpone that one for another couple of years.... then the grandkids will be teenagers. We are still into people like "High School musical" and Hannah Montana and such.
