Summer Of '77:
Handsome Dick ♥ Frisco

Who knows what tunes lurk in the minds of men (or disembodied iNternet entities) but this entity suddenly wanted to hear "The Next Big Thing" & found a recently uploaded live performance wherein Dictators frontperson Handsome Dick Manitoba attempts to ingratiate himself w/ the S.F. crowd. The suck begins 'round (4:22), 'til then enjoy the throbbing tune & its comedic stylings.
Saw the same act at L.A.'s Whiskey days earlier; did the reaction of the masses there lead to H.D.'s fit o' pique?

Here Dick stops the song, but only to disprove his point; at least the implication is that being the rockin'-est urban sector in the Golden State is a relative honor & would you tired hippies get off your asses & boogie?
(Note substitution of "Johnny Carson" for "Joe Franklin".)

I just like this one.
Boogie 'til it's Sunday afternoon nap-on-the-couch time, wretched Dictators fans!
