Yup. And I'll probably get this wrong too, <g> but wasn't Night Flight the
umbrella for the show that Peter Ivers did that spotlighted early-80's LA
scene bands? (Name of the show I can't remember, I know one of y'all will)
Now *that* was a cool show. I remember seeing The Blasters and X on that
show, and Los Lobos too? I remember the show was generating some attention
when Ivers was murdered, ending it.
Anybody else remember that one?
