Stuck in My Head



Ever since I posted the Danvers wedding brawl post, I can't get "The Stoke" out of my head and that is AWESOME.  This song friggin' rules.  It's Friday.  Turn up the computer speakers and blast some BILLY F*CKING SQUIER!

A little Billy Squier info fo yo minds:

Billy Squier was born in WELLESLEY, MA!  Wow, that just blew my mind.  I heard a radio interview with him a few years back and when he signed his record deal it was for something crazy like eight records.  So he had some early hits, but really felt the pressure of coming up with material all the time.

From Wikipedia:  In 2002, he married Nicole, a professional German soccer player. They divide their time between a home on Long Island and an apartment in the famous San Remo on Central Park West in Manhattan. Billy Squier is an active volunteer for the Central Park Conservancy, doing the hands-on "dirty work" by maintaining 20 acres (81,000 m2) of the park, as well as promoting the Conservancy in articles and interviews. He also supports the Group for the East End and its native planting programs on eastern Long Island.
