Once upon a time in Pittsburgh's Syria Mosque

[Horace]

Seems like someone posts a Bangles thread here every few months. How Susanna Hoffs has aged, doesn't hurt. I think tiny people have certain advantages when it comes to that.

Hoffs is now 65. Yes, I do think petite women hold their looks longer.

Hoffs mother and NImoy were friends, so mom and daughter asked for a favor.

One of the comments talked about the architecture and superior acoustics of the building of the building and that it was a shame it was torn down.

True?

[LuFins Dad]

To be honest, all I ever saw at Syria Mosque was rock shows, so heavily amped that the acoustics were irrelevant. It was torn down the year before I became a union musician, but some of the guys I played with raved about it and lamented the loss.

The answer is Michael Steele, the bassist. Miki played with Joan in The Runaways.
