McDonough didn't know about the "duke'

[TexanMark]

So I'm playing this and my Rochester wife from another room said why are you playing Duke Jupiter?
I told her 805 was better and Benny is king while chewing on some Duke's.

Very nice.

And don't forget these guys...

Wow!!!!! Talk about bringing back old memories. I grew up in Cazenovia, and Todd Hobin used to play in towns around the Caz area fairly often way back then. I had forgotten all about them until I saw this. It's probably been around 30 years since I last saw them play (or for that matter even hear their name mentioned). After googling the band, I see he is amazingly still at it. I guess once a musician, always a musician!

I was a huge 805 fan! Here's one from the vaults!

Were you at Owghena Manor the night Todd played and the police busted the place for massive under-age drinking?

I was there with Mack, Jonesy, Cocker and many others you may know.

I have no idea, though he's had plenty of farewell concerts.

On a side note, have you ever listened closely to his hit "Into the Night"? Pretty creepy actually

Benny rocks! (or rocked)

Love the "Never Run, Never Hide" album as well as "Sheila C."
2012's "I've Got You" is a nice ballad... very different from the old days.

Did you pop a Genny Cream, OV Splits, or a Molson Brador in a stubby brown bottle, while in the way back machine?

After several days and 4 pages I still have no idea what the hell this thread is really about. But it is entertaining.

Since we're reminiscing about classic 80s acts, surely many of you folks must have attended a John Valby (Dr. Dirty) show or two.

Can't believe this guy is still out there doing this (LANGUAGE WARNING)

Women ...and my cousin still plays drums for him. The guy does benefits for pop warner teams all the time if they would just ask. But he has Parkinsons right now so it is getting tough for him.

He also fell in love with the area. He liked it more than Cali.

I know my buddy Jeff played with him and Eddie Money at a gig this year. Said he was a pretty nice guy.
