Re: Homecoming 2018: Songs We Want Brought Back

Okay, Homecoming is close, so let's get serious now. Two Patterson and Two Cooley songs you want to hear that have a reasonable chance of being played (ie no Daddy's Cup, Buford, etc) Carl Perkins Hearing Jimmy Loud Steve McQueen Pauline Hawkins Wow. That was harder than I though it would be. :o

Re: Elon Musk / Space Oddity

If you have not seen the video of the Falcon launch, drop everything and watch it now. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Aside from the incredible science behind the launch, it is just so badass to see a Red Convertible blasting David Bowie launched to Mars. Because: science! Also becau...

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit

I read the memo. Snore. A LOT of stuff is conveniently left out. This will do nothing but feed the trolls and tin-foil hat set. What a shame.

I can't get over the contrast between the Isbell show I last saw maybe 3 years ago and what I saw the other night. Holy Moley, that young feller has done well for himself. Like I've said before, not really my thing anymore, but a good show and I couldn't be happier for them. My only regret of the n...

Re: Chris Stapleton on SNL

Great performances.

I'm still partial to Sturgill's solo performance of 'Call to Arms' on SNL. I made my 5 and 7 year old watch it and said, "Kids, listen. Look at that! THAT is Rock 'n Roll."
