TS PS

Just like New England Guy, I remember a lot of the great Tom Snyder punk interviews, especially the night Wendy O. Williams did "Master Plan" and performed on chainsaw.

Snyder may have been a respected newscaster and interviewer at one point, but not after Aykroyd started doing him. He seemed to have a sense of humor about it, but thanks to Saturday Night Live (and, in some ways, to his own personality), Snyder became a punchline.

Somewhat ironically, one of the few extras the first season SNL box set has is the short interview Snyder had with Lorne Michaels and the cast before their premiere.

The Plasmatics - you just don't get any great duct tape over the nipple art any more.

Can't think of a better requiem for Tom S
