Just got back from the Flying J truck stop in Barstow, just off the I-15. The Blues Brothers* were playing a live show there.

Yes. Really.

From your comment, I take it they weren't very good? I loved the first movie. It was one of the first movies I had on video too. Back with my corded remote VCR.

No, it was a good show actually. They held off announcing it 'til the last minute, so it wasn't too hideously crowded. Pretty small and casual; audience members jumped up on stage to dance with them. Was pretty cool, just short. They were mainly there to promote a new CD.

Dan Ackroyd's gotten a bit chunky since the original movie, though. :)

Speaking of actors who have chunked out a bit, Aykroyd's cohort from "Ghostbusters" Harold Ramis seems to have gained a significant amount of weight since he was Egon.
