I remember that moon! I think he was at 'Kids Night' one year in my hometown back in the 80's :)

And who could ever forget the raisins....that mean I'll be hearing, "I heard it through the grapevine" on the tube again? lol :p

I remember that moon....and Roem, I'll play The California Raisins doing "I heard it through the grapevine" next Wednesday for you! I spent $10.00 to buy that album. The worst thing is I flucking hated those stupid @$$ raisins! I am an 80's music junkie!

I do remember ol' Moon Head singing and playing the piano to the tune of Mac the Knife! I hadn't thought of that in years.

Also, when Hardees came out with all their California raisins miniatures, I simply had to have all of them in my collection, so I went to Hardees to eat everyday for a week, even though I detest Hardees' food! :eek:

I remember both songs only too well. They were both played incessively over the television! :mad: That Moon Face at the piano, playing "Mac The Knife", used to give me nightmares! He reminded me of 'Moonface' from "Nightbreed"! :eek: It wasn't a good thing! :lol:

I was thinking the same thing! That "Moon Face" was pretty scary!
