@Handy: When I was 14, the fakest fake ID ever faked got me into everything in mid-70s NYC. You just needed to wave something, anything in their faces so they could have a scintilla of accountability. But mostly, they didn't even bother to look or even ask for it.

When I was a kid (in upstate NY, in the serveurs), I used to listen to Larry Glick's late-night talk show on WBZ from Boston late. Muck Myers (Myer? Spelling?) was Larry Glick's producer, and it was just the two of them in the station at night, so Larry was always talking to Muck on the other side of the glass. I can't remember his real first name. I think Larry Glick may have given him his nickname, though.

McGroovey, I instantly assumed that the serveurs was some sort of chain of canoe lakes that only locals would ever have heard of and that you'd immediately have to retract your statement to make sure that we tyros didn't flood the place.

Now that I think about it, though, I think that drummer went on to play drums for Unsafe (among other bands). I need to look into that. It may not have been him. He was in that class, though, I think.
