Yes, that day they did Midnight Special and Tonight Show in ‘75. We had so much fun trying to figure that out 🥰

They have iPhone cases! I might need to snag one.

That’s from the sleeve inside of “Children of the World,” that’s all I can contribute! I swear, though, Robin, Dennis & Blue kept wearing those tees with cartoons.

“Cat People” (the fast version) and “Nature Boy” for Moulin Rouge.

Italian sausage in marinara on a sub roll from a local restaurant called Frangi’s (Jacksonville FL) & the salad & taco bar & shakes at the lost chain Rax (neon green guac! Choc chip shakes! Italian subs)

I will definitely have to give those a try! Love the dance trainers although 10 min is usually my limit on those.

It’s like all the fans now who think fandom didn’t start until the Internet. The stories about pre-Net fandom I & my friends can tell!

I absolutely hear you on being overwhelmed & stressed! I kept X just so it won’t be taken by a spammer, not much in FB, but Threads & Insta & here & Discord & Primetimer…I should cut back too!

How I arrived on BlueSky

That sounds like the opening to an Inspector Morse/Lewis/Endeavour episode.

I'm so sorry - I hope you can get a new position quickly! I graduated JU years ago w/ a history degree, then a history MA & law degree at FSU. I declared a history major b/c of the excellent professors I had at JU! Where do they think students for the law school come from? Not all from biz school!

I love logging onto the Happier Blue Site and seeing you and @sky-west.bsky.social tracking down Bee Gees lore 🥰 Makes it a happier day!

I was a college TV critic around 1984 and I'd add Wiseguy to great things from the 80s.

Jean Claude Killy, champion skier from 1968, was the driver of Albertville’s organizing committee, because he wanted France to build a highway to the skiing areas. #HATM

Thank you! I knew I'd read it, didn't remember where!

Tracked it down - Blue worked with them in the 80s, apparently, and was on The Old Grey Whistle Test then.
comment in response to post
Wasn't Blue with the PSB around then? I'd have to go look at when he was working with them. Odd coincidence! Maybe the hat is something the town had as a tourist souvenir?
comment in response to post
And why he was with them, who knows! 😆

Wimbeldon - just checked the dates & it was Jun 24 - July 6. Moore went out in the 1st round though… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1968_Wi...

Absolutely had the same thoughts, at the same time!

Oh, now that is going to drive me crazy, trying to imagine Rod singing "Dim All the Lights"!
comment in response to post
Yay! So enjoyed - now off to watch the programs! Odd disco trivia moment - one of the 1st people to record Donna Summer was original Bee Gee guitarist Vince Melouney! Also I love that Handbook ::g::

English Breakfast black tea is my go to tea, and my morning caffeine 😁 I drink it with no sugar or cream but I know the other connoisseurs will recommend milk & sugar.
