I saw their "last ever show" at Irving Plaza in March of 1981. (My buddy and I got held up at the entrance to his apartment in Flatbush later that night, but as Lou Reed said, "But those were different times.") The Fleshtones opened the show, and at one point I realized that Debbie Harry was standing right next to me. And then 25 years later (almost exactly to the day) they showed up in New Orleans for a "reunion show." I didn't go not being overly nostalgic. The brilliance of rocknroll to my mind is not in its timelessness but in its reflection of the particular historical moment.

Spoke to my friend a couple of weeks ago when Syl Sylvain died but Handsome Dick never came up.

Saw Kenny Wayne Sheppard play it in concert - he referred to it as an old Stevie Ray Vaughan song.
I like the Stooges, the Dictators, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Kenny Wayne Sheppard and the MC5 too!
