Title: A Tribute to Bruce on his Birthday
Post by: Ed Roach on June 27, 2010, 09:12:39 PM
Mentioned this on the BBB, (where they are making a fuss over his birthday), but Little Steven Van Zandt also made a fuss over his B-day on the Underground Garage last night:  http://littlestevensundergroundgarage.com/homepage.html

Wow, I had no idea it was Bruce Johnston's birthday. I feel like such a heel.

Happy Birthday, Bruce!

Try listening to the show.  I happened to be driving from Hollywood to Santa Monica around midnite, and the station was playing "California Girls".  I wondered why, until I heard Silvo, (excuse me, Little Steven), mention that it was Bruce's B-day!  He then listed what songs he had played, & mentioned how significant The Boys, & Bruce, were to contemporary music!  
Put me in mind of when Max Weinberg sent tickets over to Dennis at Brother Studio, when his Bruce first played the Santa Monica Civic.  The note commended Dennis on his drumming, and invited him to the show...
