I bought an Italian Hoagie for lunch and ate half of it. The other half I saved for dinner. The entire day has been spent listening to LuxiuriaMusic, I must get my 25¢ worth. This evening I did Go Go Robics II. I am getting better but I still have a far way to go, bumps aren’t easy.
Tomorrow is the Herman’s Hermits concert! Can you call it a Herman’s Hermits concert if Peter Noone is the only originial Hermit? Of course, he was known as Herman, wasn’t he? I recall seeing them back in 1986. They opened for the Monkees on the 20th Anniversary Tour. I am quite sure Peter wasn’t in attendence, there was some other guy singing. I guess I am finally coming full circle.
So, Herman’s Hermits opened for the Monkees in ’86? But now they’re the opening act? Wow, they’ve really come a long way in 20 years. 🙂
Who’s opening for Herman this time around?
I hope to read a full review of the concert.

The surviving Hermits have been playing on their own for some time now, Noone-less.
What makes this confusing is the fact that the original Hermits usually didn’t play on the actual HH recordings: producer Mickie Most tended to rely on studio musicians, notably guitarist Jimmy Page (before Led Zeppelin or even the Yardbirds).
Actually, I guess that makes them a perfect opening act for the Monkees, who were treated similarly by their producers.
