This is a great article. I always liked Wet Willie, and Almost Famous is one of my favorite movies!

Quote that one all the time (though pretty certain he says "me trousers") along with the one from Still Live, which, off the top of my head (so forgive errors), goes a little something like this:

Welcome Virginia, welcome Hampton. And welcome to everyone watchin' on TV, hope you're havin' a good time, drinkin' a few beers and smokin' a few joints at home wit' cha, awright!


:lol: :lol: :lol:
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing
