Enjoy your summertime!

Friday, July 10th, 2009

Alright, even Mike Hobo needs to have a break from time to time…so I’m gone for sunny Italy. Thanks for your continuing support in the past month, enjoy your summertime and maybe you want to return to my site sometime soon. I’ve been doing this for 12 years now and as far as I know only Karl Erik and his expectingrain.com have been online for that long or even longer.
I could have posted “Summer Days”, but I preferred this nice vintage VHS tape from “In the Summertime” (“Shot of Love”, 1981). Enjoy, and don’t get a sunburn!

Updated: The original video has been removed from YouTube, so I posted this bootleg version.

“We are the World” (1984)
