They’re surfer dudes.
The girls went where they went.
When I was 18-21-ish I was getting dragged around jazz clubs by girls I fancied (but only occasionally closed-the-deal with), pretending to like some of the most tedious and pretentious music you’d ever want to hear.
There’s no doubt that, had I been 18-21-ish at the time these dullard acoustic troubadours were de rigeur, I would have been similarly dragged around gigs of theirs and having to feign interest in the music…

No bragging rights here… my hit/miss ratio was even worse than Midtable Brad’s win/loss record…

At least you were cool and played in a band.

It was. A good sob story (generally) got even the most trash (subjective) song through.

Is this where your love of sax came from ?

Oh, there’s absolutely no doubt that my appreciation (or otherwise) of sax was formed in those dreary jazz bars.
And I can tell you with authority… the saxophonist was never one of those big, musclebound blokes like in a Tina Turner or Dan Hartman video. It was always a Poindexter with a shoelace tie (Kirk Pengilly is a perfect example) whose conversations with da laydeez would always have ended with “yeah… you’re nice and all, but when can I meet the singer?”…

yay for Blow Up The Pokies.
To paraphrase an AFL coach in days gone by…

Oh, I did wonder about Youth Group.
Good on ‘em.
Wish I wasn’t at work. Grrrr.
That will give the cool (heh) “kids” some solace.
Not much, but some.
