I seem to have this talent (curse) for tying things together that don't make sense to anyone but me. Colonel Jimmy Doolittle led the first mainland attack on Japan after Pearl Harbor. Taking off from the aircraft carrier Hornet with a squadron of 16 B-25 light twin engine bombers they hit the city of Tokyo in a raid later referred to as "30 seconds over Tokyo". The Pere Ubu song of the same name can be found on an obscure British EP called "Datapanic in the Year Zero" on Radar Records released in 1977. Now for this week's history quiz - does anyone remember the San Francisco punk band Pearl Harbor & the Explosions that used to play at the notorious Mabuhay(?) Gardens? Do they have anything out on vinyl or? Just wandering.
