You know how you'll be driving down the road and suddenly a song comes on that you haven't heard in 25 years and you find yourself "Oh my god.... I haven't heard this in years... I wonder where they are now?"
Well, wonder no more.
They're here.
On the morning news they did a live report from "Oildorado Days". Yes...OILdorado. It's put on south of here in Taft, the town formerly known as Moron until the Morons wisely changed the name.
Headlining this years event? Eddie Money!
This area is an elephant graveyard of acts from the 70's and 80's. Mostly they perform at the Tachi Palace Indian casino up the road, but the just concluded county fair is another favorite venue. Where else could you hope to see Big Bad Voodoo Daddy?
David Cassidy, Berlin, Styx, The Doobie Brothers, REO Speedwagon... the list goes on and on.
They even had X... how sad is that? Once the cutting edge in LA punk and now they're playing next to the dollar slots.
I guess I'm not the only one who's star has fallen. And all the fallen stars seem to land here.
