Well it's summertime, so...

One odd thing to notice about American Bandstand is that, yes, it was American, but there is no bandstand. The bands play at floor level. Go ahead, ask your AI what a bandstand is.

Also, I don't want to get all political, but there were two bands the San Francisco hippies did not like. One was CCR, who wore flannel shirts and were perceived to represent the American lower working class, and if you haven't yet figured it out, hippies are elitists. The other band they didn't like was Blue Cheer, just because they were in the process of inventing heavy metal and their performances were too loud and thunderous. To his credit, Dick Clark points out that there are way too many Marshall stacks for a three piece band. What's also interesting is that despite all that wall of sound being produced, someone forgot to put a microphone in front of the singer, yet he's still pretty clearly heard. Anyway, enjoy. Or not.

Fingers walk the darkness down
Mind is on the midnight
Gather up the gold you've found
You fool, it's only moonlight.
If you try to take it home
Your hands will turn to butter
You better leave this dream alone
Try to find another.


Salvation sat and crossed herself
Called the devil partner
Wisdom burned upon a shelf
Who'll kill the raging cancer
Seal the river at it's mouth
Take the water prisoner
Fill the sky with screams and cries
Bathe in fiery answers
