Cool, Holly nailed the answer for the “Led Zeppelin Tour”… the Rolling Stones, drummer Charlie Watts. Wanna know why? Check out the comments on the April 3 Post.

Still nobody’s right on the Mosrite guitar question. Boomer is issuing a personal challenge to Guitarosaurus Dave, Stratosaurus Ronnie, or Pete Fenner in Houston Texas to answer this one. I’ll give out a REALLY BIG HINT! Ok TWO really big hints… One… these guys didn’t sing… two, the album kind of set the scene and the model for the series of AIRPORT movie sequels… the name of earlier album followed by the release year of the newer one…

C’mon guys… I know you can do it!

Today’s question… back to the Rollin’ Uglies… How old was Mick Jagger at the opening show of the Tattoo You tour? Extra points if you can name the Date, City and Stadium.

Yes! We finally got a winner in our Kinks Fan Club challenge question.  The unnamed, no-city-specified winner, (however, we’re guessing NYC) said “Chas Chandler, formerly of the Animals, found ex-GI Jimi Hendrix and took him to England. Chas played bass, Jimi guitar.”

YUP!…. but STILL no answer on the Mosrite or Richard Valenzuela questions…

Here we go for today…  name the band, and the drummer who called his band’s 1969 tour the “Led Zeppelin” tour.  Extra credit if you can tell us why he called it that.

send your answer

Dinosaurs

At one time, someone made a statement about Led Zeppelin being ‘dinosaurs’.  Now, when you search the web, there are tens of thousands of references to ‘dinosaur rock’.  Oh, well.Boomersaurus may be dinosaurs, but we’re hip dinosaurs; and we like to play music that an entire very large generation loves to hear. Stuff that takes us back to our first car, our first kiss, our first …

What you won’t hear from Boomersaurus is the sterile, generic stuff that comes out of the Orlando pop-star factories and TV popularity contests…  or the chick-a-boom stuff that implies that f**k, b*tch, and ho are the only words in the English language.

Rock On!!!!!
