Immediately after the show a club owner who I was doing business with invited me to his club where "Fish & Chips" were playing (The Dinosaurs). I'm trying to remember the name of the club. Any clue?

They played well.<br /><br />Lots of Dinosours dates are available at <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/Dinosaurs" rel="nofollow">the Live Music Archive</a>. If we buy the datings, it looks like their first attributed gig was at the Marin County Fair on July 5, 1982.<br /><br />Listening to 11/21/82 at Cotati now: http://www.archive.org/details/Dinosaurs1982-11-21.cabaret.rick.c.easy.ed.sbd.matrix.flac.16<br />"Who Makes the Moves" is a really good representation of this band. Cipollina, one of my favorites, gets that distinctive sound that you know is him the second you hear it. Nice stuff.<br /><br />Thanks!Fate Musichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05648291938690043423noreply@blogger.com
