My home boy, Stevie Ray's birthday would have been today.

Ewe: I really enjoyed both songs,he seems to get better with age.It's lucky he invited Noel instead of Liam up onstage,Liam would have probably fell off the stool

Ewe: great minds think alike,I'm going to dig into your links now

I have a few theories why they never quiet made it after an exceptional 1st album.I think it was a combination of being swept away by U2(a similar sound)and maybe they played up their Christianity too much,regardless,they recorded some damn fine music,this song especially

Ewe:  It's still my work day, and I have a mile or two to go before I can decide what I am into for music this day.  I was just jealous that you are done with your drudgery for the day.  I just took a break to get my mind straight. 

As a matter of fact, Dandy-pie, I have to run a couple errands, so I should take flight.  I'll hope to see you later.

Ya'll put up lots of stuff to make me happy when I get back.  k?

Jim...this is my fave from I think the Wildwood album

TexasToest: Hi there!! Yes thank you, Im really enjoying listening to some music whilst playing here! Its great isnt it! Jim just brought lots of memories back for me with The Style Council...I was a young teenager then & in love with Paul Weller

How are you this evening? What musical delights have you got for us today?

Jim Dandy: OMG Im listening to that now!!! Love it too! This version is with Noel Gallagher

Jim Dandy: I will never fight with you over Carlos Santana.  Excellent choice.

Hi there, Ewe.  Having a nice evening?

Ewe: Thanks,I'll check it out,That's Entertainment is my fave Jam tune

Jim Dandy: He is one cool cat!

His solo album called Wildwood is very good....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKlXi7qVXeg

Ewe: Yeah,I liked The Jam too,I should checkout his new stuff

Jim Dandy: Fwoar sexy Paul Weller! I love the Style Council but the Jam are even better!!! (his band before) His solo stuff more recently is still good too! Seen him live a couple of times, fantastic gigs!!

TexasToest: Weller had been formerly in a mod-type band called The Jam,it was an abot face when he started The Style Council.I wasn't really a big fan,but I do like that song,.........continuing in that vein

Jim Dandy:  That's a sweet piece.  You keep coming up with stuff I've never even seen.  Time to get on it, and go back out to the listening clubs..  I DO love sAx.

Jim Dandy:  I didn't think I'd heard anything substantial from them in a long time.  Must be why, they're not the same.

TexasToest: I think they are,but not sure of how many original members are left.They lost me when this guy left and Farnham became the singer

Jim Dandy:  That's an oldie.  Are they still around?

Jim Dandy:  Hahaha!  That reminds me of a poem by Roy Blount, Jr.  (I'm posting this here, because I want to - the poetry board would not appreciate it.)  Here it goes:

All the stores in town are out of broccoli, loccoli.

Ewe:  No, I hadn't heard of her.  She is quite a high energy performer, isn't she?  Thanks for letting me know about her.

I have heard of Anuradha Pal  She was on NPR's Morning Edition a few weeks ago  There is lots of her on YouTube, but here she is with an
all-female percussion ensemble.

Radiant2007 :-):  We do not require you to be here.  Go rest and take care of that headache.  We only require that you be healthy, and stay with us for a long long time.  I'll be dying in about 20 years, and I want you to be around when I go.  You have to sing.

Jim Dandy:

Ewe: Up until today,whenever I got the urge to spin a veggie tune on the turntable it was usually this one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA1m57X3Xok

Jim Dandy: whilst Im looking I came across this!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX-Q25cYAvc

Ewe: Oh yes,there are many.The singer himself described it as a fight song.

Jim Dandy: I know of bands who are political in life about topics like vegetarianism etc but not sure if any of their lyrics are? I will have a look

Ewe: I said "finally" because to my knowledge vegen fight songs are scarce.Have you heard others?

One last one from her...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcNmzekgUsQ&mode=related&search=

so, not in the mood to be here and listen to music.. im sorry. Wishing you all a musical happening here today/nite... *feeling really sick.... 

TexasToest: Yes I agree! Have you heard this girl play? Amazing!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-pIH0rRzPM&mode=related&search=

Ewe: Sure! Only the Allah of the sitar. Love the guy, and tabla is pure joy in my ears. Just like home.

TexasToest:

Jim Dandy: A vegetarian fight song? Is it for fighting non-vegetarians? Or is it about fighting veggies? In this corner, we have, at 1 pound 12 ounces in the bright green trunks, CELERY!!

And, in THIS corner, we have in the red trunks The Rotten TOMATO!!!

Jim Dandy: I guess I was just expecting something different....he was a bit, maybe, country-ish for me?? Just wondering how come you said 'finally a vegetarian fight song' was all...

I love this guy, been to a couple of his gigs & they are real veggie, peace, hippy nights

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JctKjVHmo2g

Ewe: no,what about his style suprised you?

Happy Birthday STING

Jim Dandy: I was quite surprised at his style!
Are you a veggie?

Jim Dandy:  Whew!  That was heavy!!

Jim Dandy:  Awwww, Dandy-pie.  I love that song.  Thanks for reading between the lines.

Eriisa:  You don't know?  Whassa matter wichoo?

Eriisa: I would have bet money it was this one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ca92O3uXn8

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5URwOtE2Ec

TexasToest:

TexasToest: watch what one?

Before you watch this one, click on more and read what you're supposed to be doing while you're listening to it.  You'll be surprised at who all is there.  And, yes, I can see the rodeo grounds from my back window.  The ESPN thower flashes in the night.
