The Show I've Been Planning For 25 Years!

Thank you SHR for putting together such a great flyer!

Three Huey links for you:
1. Listen to the song from Pineapple Express.
Thank you Skippy.

2. Huey talks about the song from the movie.
Thank you Mitch.

3.Huey on Jimmy Kimmel last week.

It's a glorious time to be a Huey fan. I just wish that I liked the song a little bit more.

dude, you are nuts! that song is fantastic! maybe a little too glossy, maybe a little too smooth, but something about the way he hits the chorus "pine-apple ex-press!"

gives me flashbacks to listening to the cassette my sister and I had of the Back to the Future ost

also I love love love this bit:

Lewis remembered his marching orders: “They said, ‘We want a track called ‘Pineapple Express.’ I said, ‘Ooh. That’s going to be tough.’ They said, ‘It’s a kind of marijuana.’ I said, ‘Like Panama Red? No problem.’ ”

huey lewis too smooth? that's like salt being too salty.

the way he "hits the chorus" is quite reminiscent of roberta flack's version of "compared to what".
