Old rockers ...

Old and new friends belt out a rendition of Elvis Costello's - or Midnight Oil's, depending on how you look at it - classic "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love & Understanding."
Old musicians never die, they just decompose, as the saying goes.
It was a meeting of old Boston rockers the other day when I had a little gathering at my house and asked George Belli, formerly of The Real and Shattered Silence, to entertain attendees.
By strange coincidence, George lives in New Hampshire now, after years of slugging it out in the Boston music scene just like yours truly. George was nice enough to bring his songwriting partner Michael [last name is slipping me at the moment] and his better half, Louise. A fun time was had by all and the old guys got to prove that they still got it. In fact, you can see that George still has it - around some of Concord's better restaurants and music establishments.
Now, I just have to find the time to play out a bit more and the circle will be complete.
