Music Geek Heaven


I was flipping channels this morning, looking for the news and weather, when I spotted a commercial for Target. A middle-aged man, balding with glasses, a short-sleeved shirt and tie, was playing drums on an empty white set with relaxed authority. Next to him was a young woman, her long blonde curls swirling as she flailed her own drums. It took me a moment, but sure enough -- it was Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick and Donna C. of The Donnas!

I've since seen it a few more times today. Very sublime moment for yours truly.
