Mark Robinson of Teen Beat Records hosted a backyard soiree at his place in Arlington, Virginia; I sort of knew Mark, but my old college pal Mike knew him well enough to get invited, and asked me if I wanted to go along. Heavenly had played the 9:30 Club in DC the night before (Mike and I had gone) and they were all there. It was nice. |

I was wrong about Madeleine Carroll; the I Love Lucy writers were Madelyn Pugh Davis and Bob Carroll Jr.

I finally got frustrated enough to look up Alannah Currie. The funny thing is, I could totally see her in my mind - her face, her hairstyle - and I knew what general field she was in, but still had no idea where I knew her from. Weird.
