The band Teenage Head had quite a number of superlative releases on the Attic label at the height of the punk/new wave movement. Glad to see that the good Professor Lewis is persevering!
Because he wanted to and because the name of his band came from the Flamin' Groovies. And, having met the man a bunch of times, I can tell you this: Gordie Lewis is a very kind and patient gentleman. I don't think he was hard done by sitting beside a musician he loves.
That happens. When you do something important for a short period of time you can be trapped there. Most of us don't do anything lasting, so it doesn't happen to us the same way. No real fame for the Groovies, but impact beyond expectation. I understand his focus. They were seminal in so many ways. Loved the interview and the way Gordie quietly supported the interview.

Why did Gord Lewis have to sit through that?
Because he wanted to and because the name of his band came from the Flamin' Groovies. And, having met the man a bunch of times, I can tell you this: Gordie Lewis is a very kind and patient gentleman. I don't think he was hard done by sitting beside a musician he loves.
saw the credits roll by-michael fontara? did you mean fonfara? the rhinoceros guy?
That looks like him bitching at the end about keyboards while the title rolls.
Small resemblance to 1968 era John Lennon, I'm guessing most likely unintentional.
This guy is REALLY stuck in the 60s

Why’s that a bad thing? The 60s were cool.
