Is it weird that I liked the the double-stacked SVT heads more than the whipped cream and clothespins?

My old drummer got to see them, too.  He said the same thing.  He also said that the road crew probably knew which mic was Wendy's automatically when setting up for a gig.

Saw them back in the 80s at a Long Island club, back when there was a killer live music scene and lots of great bands.

I never found the fish comparison especially accurate. Must be the company I keep!
