Dead acts (was: Re: Star One - Space Metal)

[Stephe Lindas]

Well, maybe thats exception. This year in Cleveland they had The Guess Who
and someone else like Three dog night. Last year it was the Tubes. Haven't
seen the other ones around here yet. I'd definately go if BOC was playing.
Most of them are Hasbeen oldies.
