As several of you know, I was in a band with
Matty Boy called
The Wonders of Science muchos años pasados. One of the radio stations which would actually play our stuff was
KFJC-FM in Los Altos Hills. CA. Being a college station, they did (and still do) fund raisers. In them days Matty Boy was a
big-time Game Designer at Activision and was generous with his wealth (he's still very generous, just not wealthy), and he made a big ass donation to said station, winning a Dream Date with DJ Teresa Trash. The Lovely Mona, Not-Yet-Padre Mickey, Travis Hunt and Annie Bennett went along as chaperones (featuring Tommy Toonz as "The Driver"). This was sometime in 1983. It was quite the evening, with KFJC types coming and going during the dinner. I don't remember where we went or what we ate. If Eric Predoehl of
The Louie Report (and all things Louie Louie) hadn't been there taking photos I probably wouldn't even remember that this ever took place, but
here is the proof!.
Two photos from That Wonderful Night are below. Can you find Matty Boy, the Lovely Mona and Not-Yet-Padre Mickey?
Also, I promised Eric I'd help come up with Funny Captions, but, unless the photos contain Bishops, or Knick-knacks and Dog Toys dressed as Bishops, or Red Mr. Peanut Banks and Gallito Mescalitos, I'm just not clever enough to come up with much, so here's yer big chance! Hep a bruthah out!

I'm not sure having five extra people tagging along qualifies in the category of a "dream date." But It does look like everyone had fun.
I look back at these pictures, and "dream date" appears to mean "consumption of mass quantities of alcohol".
And possibly other stuff.
Once upon a time women wore dresses and skirts.
You are in the middle in front of the car and Mona stands to your right.
2nd picture, Lord have mercy, honey, you had great hair! Mona looks about 14!
See you Sunday.
The lovely Mona hasn't changed much, and you did have great hair. What happened to it?
I'm so sorry. The devil made me do it.
