Did any of you ever really listen to this song? I heard it a few hundred times but the brain never caught it. It was performed live on BBC so I guess they never did either.

Great song. Great album.

Oh, and I’ve always much preferred to think of Rosie as the roadie’s faithful wife waiting at home although the grin on the backup singer’s face as he sings the chorus belies my preferred naïveté...

I know it’s not what the thread is about, but I used to like the way Junk Yard Dog referred to his fist as the 4 sisters on Thumb Street

That thumb is one controlling digit.

Lol when I was growing up we called it Mrs. Thumb and her four daughters. Sick puppies!

During another performance, Browne explained this actually was a true story; the girl in question was wearing a green leotard and was sixteen years old. But rather than hit the sack with Rosie, the sound mixer exacted a rather embarrassing revenge on the drummer. After sitting brooding over a few drinks in the hotel bar, he nailed his hotel door shut with coins (apparently this is an old trick). When it was time to leave, the drummer had to call the desk to get them to remove the door, leaving him to explain the jailbait in his room.

up here it's called " a date with Miss Michigan"


and on a side note---you can only coin a door from the pull side---the molding prevents a coin from being jammed between the door and frame. i can't think of a hotel room door that pulls into the hall---against fire code. i call shenanigans.
