If you go to the window & look out in the direction of Newburyport, MA, you'll spot a reddish glow. Yup, that's all of the novena candles wishing you good health. I feel a bit superstitious about...
I hear a bit of "Everything but the girl". Anyone else hear it?
I picked this up in a college record shop in Pittsburg in the early eighties. Still have it. Thanks to this mention I'll have to dig it out & give it a spin today.
Speedy recovery, geez. Best wishes from Metropolitans land.
To each his own. You should know that I based my opinion on direct quotes from band members in print or on video. As I said, at the outset I was puzzled. Then, when informed, I made my judgment. I...
I want to thank everyone who responded to my question. Make no mistake, I wasn't singling anyone out & I admit that, in retrospect, me saying "universal distaste" was over the top.
My question was...
I remember when the vinyl was released & I was puzzled that Glascock's name was in small print. When I found out what had happened, I thought it was unnecessary on the part of IA to do that; somewhat...
Here's a question: Given that there's almost universal distaste for AMLOR as a "Pink Floyd" release would you have liked this song, or AMLOR, if it was released under Gilmour's name instead of Pink...
Question:how is the new drummer? I was always impressed with the sound & style of Gary O'Toole.
Submitted for your consideration: "Smell yo' dick."
You'll have to look it up. If I see it again I'll have to shower in alcohol to get rid of the filth.
Hey, I resemble that remark! (as I casually point to my avatar quote) ;)
Callaway is out of a job in Flushing.
Ok, everyone join with me in chanting "Wally Wally Wally."
A guy who is rough around the edges but knows his baseball & can squeeze performance out of any...
I'll choose to happy if someone is doing what makes them happy. All within reason, of course. For those who cannot get over the Roger-David rift (as I couldn't, for years), I should point out that...
Well, the Metropolitans managed to one thing, at least, about which they can be proud. Pete Alonso: 53 HRs & a likely candidtate for ROY.
In my best nautical voice: That is all.
Why does it matter to me, you ask? It doesn't really. Because I don't go to games, I don't buy any of the paraphernalia, & I don't subscribe to any sports channels, TV or radio. In other words I...
Congratulations to Nektar! You had a dream, worked hard, & now the dream is on the verge of reality. Enjoy the ride. We'll be waiting for you. You'll recognize us by our smiles.
^ I pray that some day the owners will wake up & come to the same conclusion. And then, INDIVIDUALLY, of course, begin to offer sensible contracts &, in turn, bring the fans back to the game.
I'll pass. I just don't have the inclination anymore to watch movies of concerts. When I play music, I am usually doing something else. Life moves on & you change. What I was, I no longer am.
I...
Years ago I literally bumped into Davey Jones in a bar in Hartford, CT. I was there with a buddy of mine & he came walking in with a beautiful woman on each arm. He was appearing in a touring...
Very nice, Mo. Without question, I'm in!
Gosh, I wish you guys received the recognition & acclaim you richly deserved. But, we can only live for today & the future...
^ Nice! I'm very happy for the band. On to the future!
Listening to The Nice & Refugee brings back only good memories for me. I wouldn't change a thing.
Now, this 3CD set includes the Newcastle performance. If memory serves me correctly, hasn't this...
I remember getting So on it's release day. I had been waiting a long while for another record from PG & I was psyched. However, the emotion that hit me as I listened was, "Oh my, PG has changed." I...
I am most definitely in. This is gonna be good.
Good memories. Good times.
Haven't purchased a CD in over 4 years. Guess I'll have to break stride.
I remember watching him on TV, with my Dad, expressing his wonder about the man. Very good times. Thank you for that gift, Mr. Starr.
I found Jane by accident a couple of decades ago. She lost me when she went into her "Issa" phase.
Wow, they're even using "Bee-man."
Thank you, Mo!
^ Thanks for the tip. I'll have to meander over there later today. Hopefully, some videos of the band rehearsing.
I've seen interviews of all 4 members of PF. More than one have mentoned the "English way" of just ignoring a problem. It's a philosophy I ascribed to when I was a young man. Now that I'm older &...
Thank you Mo & Randy. It warms the heart to know NEKTAR & back up & running.
Yep, the reports of his death...
You know the rest. ;)

Please...
I feel for you 'geez. And I also agree with your comparison to cancer.
Count me in!
I missed an Seaver-opening day opportunity due to bad weather. F-weather! F-dementia!
I watched dementia work on my dad the last 2 years of his life. Brilliant man reduced to... sadness.
But I couldn't imagine the risk of owing someone millions upon millions if they can no longer contribute to a team.
The name Bobby Bonilla immediately comes to mind, about as abruptly & painfully...
Bone marrow biopsy... I've been on both ends of that needle. I truly hope everything turns out well but, if you need another biopsy, may I recommend PFs "Echoes"? ;)
^ After 2 deployments to the "sand boxes" I swore off all religion. Seeing this photograph I am moved to say yes Virginia, there are legitimate cathedrals of worship.
Hard to say what I am most anxious for, NEKTAR recording & back on the road or the new MLB season. Decisions, decisions...
My vote for keyboardist: Larry "Synergy" Fast.
The story of "Wally"
Good story & well told.
Another exception is Ringo's solo on Abbey Road. I've seen some videos where Paul, George, & Ringo all comment (separately) that Ringo never did solos because he didn't care for them. His bandmates...
Wow, 7 pages & no one mentioned Roger Waters' "Several species, etc., etc., etc."
Pretension is defined by the audience.
So many choices but, after reading this thread, here are my off-the-top-of-my-head picks:
Syd Barrett
William Shakespeare
Gandhi
Never cared for country music or Hee Haw but, man, could this guy play. I would put up with just about anything to watch and listen to him. Masterful. Farewell and thank you.
Love and Hope, indeed!
Fair winds and following seas. It's been a pleasure listening to & watching you behind the kit.
This news ranks right up there with what the Kardashian's will be wearing for Halloween or what shoes some Hollywood starlet is wearing.
But when you think about it.... This is considered news in...
Count me in as interested. I went through a bit of SH binge a few weeks back, just playing his studio CDs & in reverse order of release. His last 3-4 CDs seemed cut from the same cloth &, to these...
Years ago I received the Monty Python TV programs on DVD. They have never been opened. Anyone interested?
Scott, I like this theory. Certainly makes the nastiness more palitable. Now I understand my fathera little bit better. Thanks for sharing the wisdom.
Thanks for the tip of the cap, progeezer. For a second I thought the link would show that clip from Family Guy. You should be familiar with this phrase: Wait 'til next year!
To be truthful, I...
"Warmer"... Never really understood that concept. Maybe it's due to the toll taken by years of headphones usage. ;)
I don't wish failure on anyone but I'm in agreement with flowerking and Duncan.
Reading the OP, I am reminded of Roy Clay and his brand of "sizzle." Once the tour is underway I'm sure videos will...
Please don't think me a contrarian, but I attended the 16 June 1975 show at Nassau Collesium. They did not play "Have a Cigar." A friend of mine attended & recorded the 17 June show. I clearly...
I'm here.
I very well remember '69. When Cleon took that knee, I ran out to my front yard screaming at the top of my lungs!!!
Flash!
This just in from Flushing: Brandon T. Nimmo currently leads the Metropolitans Baseball Club batting average this year with a whopping 0.248.
Top that if you can!
My anti-depressant...
