The Smithereens were such a fantastic band - I saw them in concert a couple of times, and I also got to see Pat DiNizio play at a holiday party at Chicago Recording Company. He was standing in the corner of one of the live rooms with a stratocaster and a microphone, singing Beatles covers and other old songs.

You did a great job with this. Your vocal was spot on for the Smithereens feel. Solid harmonies, good solo. Makes me want to dig out the old records.

Thanks man! I had an opportunity to do this live with a friend years ago, and got too drunk and messed up the words. It was a mess! I tried to redeem myself with this one.

Thanks Bill. I tried to do some Jersey boys some justice.
