Well, is "Louie, Louie" moby? KFJC (a small station from the Foothill Junior College in Los Altos Hills, Ca.) dedicated an entire weekend+ to this song, and reportedly didn't play ANY version of the song twice. Area bands came by and did it live, and it was pretty bizarre. It even managed to make the front page of the Wall Street Journal, for reasons that I can't imagine (but then, who know why Wall Street moves anyway?). -- Ken Shoemaker, Intel, Santa Clara, Ca. {pur-ee,hplabs,amd,scgvaxd,dual,idi,omsvax}!intelca!kds ---the above views are personal.
