Blondie

    This morning I was watching a HBO special about the band Blondie. It was a mix of current interviews and performances. I think Debbie Harry is amazing. I was listening to the band's stories of how they got together and what they went through to get big. Their lives are so  interesting and I was thinking about what it would have been like to be her in the 70's and 80's. It is hard to imagine the wild ride of the fame, concerts, videos, drugs and parties. It got me on youtube to watch some of her old videos and live performances. They were discovered while playing in a little bar called CBGB's in New York in the early 70's. I did find a black and white video of her singing at CBGB before she was big and she was wearing a white shirt and tie with a plaid skirt and she looked like she was 16. She has such a presence on the stage and it is no wonder why she became as big as she is.
