    30th Aniversary

    Tonight is the 30th anniversary of William Shatner's legendary "Rocket Man" performance.

    Simply amazing. This will cheer up anyone after X's defeat.

    Here is the youtube link:

    And here is an interesting interpretation via The Family Guy:

    Chris Elliott's performance of Rocket Man on Letterman is seminal.

    Chris Elliott was the man. I miss his Marlon Brando cameos on Letterman.

    Wow, brings back memories from when I started this thread. The "Out on the Mall" board was nearly empty back then.

    I'm in a cultural vacuum in the 70s..teaching, grad school, no TV... this is priceless. Truly, Ive never seen it. Dean Martin meets Richard Harris meets George Carlin, or something close. Why wasn't the Emmy crowd laughing on its ass???
    It's a still great day to be a Muskie, but a sad day to be a supporting member of this board.
