March 3, 1965
It's nice to be able to stay home sometime. I watched T.V., took a nap, and (wonder of wonders) did my homework. The Rolling Stones (yech) were on "Shindig" but so were Jay and the Americas. They're pretty good. I like Jay, he's a good singer. But the Rolling Stones - Yech! What filth! "The Virginian" was fairly decent, but not that good. It gave me something to do, at least.

By now, it should be evident that my main criteria for judging bands was the number of attractive guys in them. Jay and the Americans 1, Rolling Stones 0. Also Jay Traynor had an awesome voice (Cara Mia) and Mick Jagger did not. Finally, Jay and the Americans were clean cut and prom-night sexy. The Stones were -- the Stones. At fifteen I was not ready for real rock 'n roll.
Amazing! There is a Shindig website with complete listings for each episode.
Here's the one I watched that night.
Omigod, and here is the episode of the Virginian.
Evidently I was over my huge crush on Clu Gulager, who was a regular on the show put didn't merit a mention in my diary.
