GRAHAM PARKER SEEKS PROTECTION
It was Toronto, a soft late May evening, and the Best Promo Girl in Detroit and I were watching Graham Parker and the Rumour fight a losing battle with the El Mocambo Club's sound system. They were able to blast out a handful of songs in between power blackouts, one of which, "Tear Your Playhouse Down," found Parker stalking a girl in the audience, a most intense erotic moment.
