Have to say I laughed out loud when I logged onto the CBS-FM website this morning and was greeted by the "behind the scenes" video of day number one. There, in one scene, walks Lou Christie, famous for "Two Faces Have I (eye, yi, eye, eye, eye, eye, eye, eye, eye....)," "Lightning Strikes" and "Rhapsody in the Rain." Givin' the chewing gum a workout. Stomach busting his jeans and shirt unbuttoned down to there, exposing his hirsute chest. An aging hipster with wrap around shades that would make Corey Hart and Timbuk 3 proud.
Lou, dude. Take it from somebody who's sportin' a chrome dome of his own: Nice hair. Up front and on top. You made some great records back in the day, but please... you ain't helpin' the cause. Granted, you're not as hideous looking and aged out as that Vodka besotted cadaver, Don Imus or the eternally embalmed Keith Richards, who, when he's unbuttoned down to there, looks like a friggin' pelican. But Lou... from a fan, not the fashion police, please, a modicum of common sense on the wardrobe... the get-up is not cool, it's a carricature. I wanna laugh with you, not at you. Button up. Go with Altoids and leave the Wrigleys to the Doublemint Twins.
