    Funky, you should add the clip from a U.S. show called “Rules of Engagement” that references J. Geils Blow Your Face Out. One of the characters calls it “The Cadillac of Live Albums!” Here's a link to a condensed clip of that episode. It doesn't have the entire scene, but you can clearly hear Geils Band in it. If you can find the full episode online, and edit out the entire scene that would be better. http://www.imdb.com/video/cbs/vi2588475417/
