  1. check this out... it's a radio check from Jay West at KILT-Am on June 22 1975. This was about 40 days before my parental units moved us to Houston. (I was a KRBE kid until I discovered hard rock, oddly enough, on KRBE- they played UFO's LIghts Out all the time.)
  2. they could put in an automated garage at the Exxon building without having to do major renovations- turn the first 6 or 7 floor into the garage, make the top floors the amenities level
  3. Wasn't that at Liberty Hall? The Liberty Hall shows were a huge deal for the Springsteen band guys- they still talk about it today. When I was waiting to meet Pink Floyd's lighting designer Marc Brickman, who was with Springsteen at the time, I was next to someone from the E-Street Band. They reminisced about Liberty Hall. (Me meeting Brickman would be like a guitar player meeting Eddie Van Halen)
  4. a good solution is one-way Greyhound tickets to cities that are better equipped to deal with them and or more accommodating to them. Most are on the streets because shelters have too many rules they don't want to obey, or they have been ripped off in the shelters
  5. If you're ever in Houston Well, you better do the right You better not gamble Yeah, you better not fight at all. Or the sheriff will grab ya And the boys will bring you down. The next thing you know, boy Oh, you're prison bound. Oh, let the midnight special Shine a light on me. Ledbelly wrote his version of that song while stuck in the TC Jester Unit in Sugar Land
  6. ok, place your bets... I have $5 on Randall Davis buying the plot at the NW corner of Post Oak and San Felipe and building something ugly and tall just to block Aspire's views of downtown.
  7. your inspection sticker expires today
  8. $600/month maintenance fee is quite reasonable for a high rise. It's slightly higher per square foot than what I was paying at the commie block in Sharpstown that I used to live in.
  9. play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
  10. not to pick nits, but that's a 64 Catalina lower left, so unless Hines also designed cars, the earliest the drawing can be is late '63
  11. the race is on, which will open first, this, the new Live Nation HQ, or their (our, I work for them) venues... lol
  12. save it for the race track. or even better, take it offroad and do some rally racing.. That's some fun stuff!
  13. does this block flood? Will it flood after the North Canal project is done since it's right next to the east end of that project?
  14. I put way too many quarters in the Space Invaders machines at the Beechnut/Fondren Games People Play. It opened late 70's, closed late 80's. One of the cutest girls I knew, Lori, worked there.
  15. I drove by this today. I'm thinking this will transform the area without transforming the area. KnowhatImeanVern?
