haha I like the cars to the extent that I can always find their albums in dollar vinyl bins, which is cool because their music is good.
Love the cars. no point in posting live shows…they were notorious more so then the Eagles for note for note right off the album versions.no improvisation at all. other then that Awsome band.
I met Ric and Paulina in maybe 1991(?), when I waited on them at a restaurant, and he was amazingly more handsome in person than I expected…. still freakishly tall, but then so was she. I guess they had something in common. But honestly, they were both super nice, and I didn’t have to spit in their food, which was good. ;)
