Yeah, because what I need is a guy who couldn't be bothered once in three decades to get off his *** and catch a fish.

Or Metro, or Sex, or Masquerade, or ....

I don't remember hearing any of those getting airplay but you're obviously much more invested in Berlin trivia than I am so I'll let you have this one.


You remembered "No More Words", but don't remember any of those others played on the radio? That's... strange. It's not like I ever owned a Berlin album, or was a big fan, or went to one of their concerts or anything, but those three are the songs I think of when someone mentions the band. I actually had forgotten that they did No More Words until you posted it. I distinctly remember that Metro was a huge radio hit at the time. Sex a bit less, more because most stations wouldn't play it. Masquerade wasn't as big, but still got played a lot.

Maybe. Once again, Berlin obviously played a much more formative role in your years than they did in mine. I'm content admitting that your knowledge of Berlin far exceeds mine.

Here's my theory. Fishing is hard.

Really though, the area of the woods this guy chose to make home is really nothing more than what Mainers would call the suburbs. It's probably a 45min drive from the center of our capitol, Augusta. Hunting would have for sure gotten him attention. Even fishing though, he'd sooner or later get checked for a license, for sizes etc. I'm sure that lake is busy during summer and fall.

He was preserving his image.

If you're Lucille Ball or Jerry Lewis, it's a foregone conclusion.

They sure liked to name bands after places in the 70's. Berlin, Chicago, Boston, Kansas, Asia, Europe, America.

Might have. I never put much energy of memorizing everything that played. I remember Julie Brown, but I couldn't begin to tell you what songs played when she hosted.
