I’m going to have “Old Aid” stuck in my head all day. And the writer was right — it was Axel Bundy.

Seeing the metal bands’ video reminded me of a metalhead I worked with back then that I’ve been laughing at for almost a quarter-century now.

I was hanging out with him one day and he was bragging about his video collection, said he had that vid and named some of the bands represented and by whom. He said, “The lead singer from Spinal Tap is in it, too. I can’t remember his name.” I told him that was Michael McKean, who’d played Lenny Cowznofski on Laverne & Shirley. He said, “Naw, it’s David Something-that-starts-with-an-’S’.” I reiterated that it was Michael McKean and he said, “OK, then, if he’s American then where’d he get the English accent from, HUH!?”

I said, “He’s an actor, man, that’s where it comes from, and I’m outta here.”, and never saw or spoke to him again.

If I hadn’t experienced it I wouldn’t believe that anybody is so thick as to think Spinal Tap are a real band.

One other thing to look for in the USA for Africa video is Willie Nelson. He suddenly appears, sings(?) his lines, looks way more confused than Billy Joel then suddenly jerks back out of the frame so fast it’s like he was cold cocked with a side of frozen water buffalo.

The only problem I had with the USA for Africa one was with Bob Dylan…. one of the organizers (Springsteen, or someone like that) said “No egos allowed”… Dylan refused to record with the other stars. All of his parts were done separately and mixed in later.

As far as Band Aid… *NOW* I remember why I loved Bananarama so much! They were hot for the ’80’s! Hell, they’re hot NOW!

These make me want to help Ethiopia just so we never have to hear crappy drivel like this again.

Still, kudos to Hear ‘N Aid for featuring Nigel St. Hubbins!!

Al “Axel” Bundy, Yes!!!

Marrried with Children is one of the best shows of all time. And to think it probably never would have survived a year if it hadn’t been for that stuck up b—- from Bloomfield Hills, MI and the attention she brought to it.

I agree Do They Know It’s Christmas is a great song. Anything with Bob Geldof is good (not to mention his performance in “Pink Floyd The Wall”).
