If I'm in the audience at a gig around here, chances are excellent
that if I look around, I'm gonna see Brett Milano (dean of the local
pop writers), Jon Bernhardt (WMBR mainstay), Wayne Rogers (Twisted
Village Records, etc.), Peter Prescott (Burma, etc.), Oedipus
(ex-local radio god who long ago sold his soul to Infinity
Broadcasting) or at the very least my buddy Jonathan Ostrowsky (who
believes strongly that the Go-Gos' "Vacation" is probably the greatest
song of all time), and all of them have between one and two decades on
me. I'm good for a while, I think.
