The Cars

[Candy O]

Over here, we can talk about my favorite 70s/80s new wave band, The Cars! :)

The Cars are an American rock band that emerged from the new wave scene in the late 1970s. The band originated in Boston, Massachusetts, with lead singer and rhythm guitarist Ric Ocasek, lead singer and bassist Benjamin Orr, guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboardist Greg Hawkes, and drummer David Robinson. -Wikipedia

LOL, me too, Beatlebob! Our friend Candy O. made me that way. I even own 5 Cars CDs now! If only I had my own car to listen to them inside of. LOL.  I bet she's going to enjoy all those YouTube videos you posted! And facts! Happy 70th Birthday, Elliot. That's an all star lineup for sure, even the name of his new group sounds retro! Empty Hearts Club band!
