Happy Birthday, In Stereo: the Walkman, the personal music machine that started us wearing those funny little headphones, is 10 years old, and to celebrate the occasion, Sony, the manufacturer, and the Hard Rock Cafe will host invitation-only parties Nov. 8 at Hard Rocks in Los Angeles, New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas and San Francisco. The celebrity-studded gala in New York--hosted by Dick Clark and featuring comedian Robert Klein and Paul Shaffer and his World’s Most Dangerous Band--will be beamed by satellite to the other parties, where guests reportedly will be able to hear the goings-on without headphones.
