Classic Lunch: The “Power Trio’s” Menu

How can just three musicians make such an enormous racket? Practice! And trust. And then lots and lots and lots more practice...

The "Classic Rock Power Trio's" Menu: "Tom Sawyer" + "Subdivisions" - Rush / "Don't Stand So Close To Me" + "Demolition Man" - The Police / "I Thank You" + "Pearl Necklace" - ZZ Top / "Born Under A Bad Sign" + "Crossroads" (live) - Cream / "The Wind Cries Mary" + "Spanish Castle Magic" - The Jimi Hendrix Experience / "The Barbarian" + "The Sheriff" - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Tomorrow (Wed., 3/16): The "Ready, Set...GO!!!" Menu. In Uninterrupted Triple-Shot Form, too! If y'all got any ideas for Classic Lunch, get 'em to us here on our web site and on the WBLM Facebook page. Can't promise there won't be any mocking, though.
