Tuesday: Just what are you saying? Gomer Pyle is my hero. Maybe it's the pot. lol

Tuesday: That's not how I remember it. lol

Tuesday: I was the one who sang like Gomer Pyle. lol But I did eventually have to lay off the pot, and cut back to an occasional hit of acid just so I could function.

The Toronto Maple Leaf crest,clearly in view on his rear thigh at the 2:50 mark only makes me love him more



And this song is good for the soul

GREAT stuff, Jim Dandy.  I needed that tonight.  It was definitely good for me, I think the earth moves everytime he opens his mouth.

The Paisley vids are great y'all.  Isn't that William Shatner?  Kind of unearthly, wouldn't you say?

I've had a few asking why I stopped doing this, sorry I don't always have the time. But today I have ~ so ....

Amongst those born 9th August are ....

TexasToest: William Shatner, Jason Alexander & oh heck, I forget the mom's name. Estelle or Ester something.....

They were also in the Celebrity video that Do posted, and had so much fun with it, that they jumped at the chance to do the Online video.

Eriisa: Double episodes of Star Trek are still played early in the morning here one night in the week. I enjoy it more now than what I ever did.

Oh wow!  Such a young Elvis!!!  And, that song, I had it on tape, and I played it, and sang that song at the top of my lungs on my way to work every day.  

Mousetrap: Spock sings!

Jim Dandy: Hey he is not a bad singer lol! He is better than Shatner!

They were so sloppy it was like listening to a train wreck.I always wondered why musicians weren't aware that the only ones who thought they sounded good while playing stoned were themselves.Here is a vintage clip of a killer tune

Jim Dandy:  If you've had a little something yourself, it's not so bad.  

TexasToest: Been there done that,it ruins my timing I'm not saying there isn't a time and place for it,just not while playing

Jim Dandy: I think she meant while listening to a show?

SEAWOLF2: According to new reports, Amy Winehouse had been smoking heroin on the night she overdosed earlier this week.

After having her stomach pumped and given a shot of Adrenaline, the Rehab singer sneaked out of the hospital and has been holed up since then at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hook, Hants.

Wino was on a three-day drug binge that also saw her consume ecstasy, cocaine and Ketamine, in addition to smoking heroin.

Friends of Winehouse fear that she may be suicidal.

Amy’s family is also concerned that her husband, Blake, is a bad influence and have tried to keep him away from her. But Friday night the two of them were spotted drinking in the hotel grounds.

how do i post a video here?

Family Man: If it is a MUSIC video from YouTube, then just copy the "enbed" code here (which can be found on most Music video's on YouTube just to the right of the video.)

coan.net: Thanks, I ended up right clicking and doing a copy paste which seemed to do the trick as well!

Jim Dandy:  Yes, I meant it was easier to watch stonoes if you are one yourself.  Like you, I found performing in an altered state difficult.

Family Man:  You have to be in plain text editor to get the link to embed the video.  Most of us don't embed videos anymore, or we choose to go out to watch the ones that are posted on YouTube itself.  I have heard others say, and it has been my experience as well, that if we watch them from here, there is too much traffic between here and YouTube, and the videos tend to stick. 

Coan.net:  Thanks for the post.  I'd not seen those guys before, but I would like to hear more.  But, ummmmm, I didn't know a banana amplified sound.  That was a pretty neat trick. 

TexasToest: The group is called Faith No More - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faith_no_more

The song below is one of my favorite songs from when I was younger.... it's funny that I had never seen the video until about a month ago... on YouTube.

Anne's Song (posted below) was with their original singer, which they had I pretty good hit with "We Care A Lot"



Then in 1989, they got a new singer - new album, and made it "big time" on MTV and such - mostly with the song Epic



I can still sing along to all of these songs.... the Anne's Song is even on my MP3 player that travels with me everywhere.

Memories......

coan.net: Epic was a great tune,it was one of the tunes turned me on to heavy metal again.This was another band that captured my imagination around that time

but especially after heaing this

How Can I Go On

heavenlyemma: Welcome back emma,how unlike you to post a Queen video

Jim Dandy: Queensryche - Silent Lucidity... that was my high school girlfriend & my song.... memories.....

But to throw in a new video - A song that I really really like, from a group which the more I listen to, the more I like them.

"I Wanna be a RockStar" - by Nickelback

Jim Dandy:    You're right about Rush.  What else can be said?

Interesting to hear you have returned to heavy metal.  I dismissed it years ago as just so much noise.  Last spring, I started hanging out with a guy 17 years my junior, and after 10 days in a car with him, I became a devotee (or, is that deviate....no devotee, I'm sure of it).  The reason for this transformation was Queensryche - I love their music.  I even bought a CD.  The second reason as this band, Scatterbrain.  I now own all three of their CDs.

coan.net:  OK, now I gotta figure out if the Wolf is in my head, or if it's just a coincedence.  Today, I went out for brunch, and I heard "I Wanna Be a RockStar for the first time.  I really dug it.  Then, you dragged it in here.  Now I'm really spooked.  Thanks for letting me know what I was listening to.

(he was in that last video as a RockStar), the 16th of August is the 30th anniversary of his last overdose.  I'd like to know where you were when you heard he had died.  If you don't want to tell us you boohooed, that's ok, just tell us the story.  Tell me yours, and I'll tell you mine.

TexasToest: Well here is the other song I keep hearing on the radio and keep getting it stuck in my head:

Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah

coan.net: I LOVE Nickelback! Thanks for posting that. Never really get to see videos on tv. Seems to me MTV used to play videos when I was a kid! lol.. never see that there now. My favorite Nickelback song is probably Animals. Or the song that is after it on the CD.. I can't think of the name, LOL

coan.net: Thanks, I enjoyed that one....
could even understand what he is saying.

coan.net:  I hadn't heard that on the radio, but I'd heard of the Plain White Ts.  It's a sweet song, do you think you need a pump to get it out of your head?  Or, do you like it there?

Here's one I love, that I used to hear on the radio a lot.  I heard it tonight during an interview with the artist.  I'm not sure if it was an old interview, but they were talking about a new album that, as far as I can see at first blush, hasn't hit the net.  But, I still love the song, "Sierra" by Boz Scaggs.

TexasToest: Beautiful song. and the dia-show!

We'll be right back

Jim Dandy: wow! I never heard him do that before. and with a British accent too.

Tuesday: um....er....no...I can play pretty much anything I put my mind to, but songwriting is not a skill I possess..I'd offer you my daughter, but she's heading to start college this week. The talent seemed to skip a generation and my Sara is the one who does that.
Are ya writing songs? I'm impressed and awed...it's a rare talent

gogul:  I liked it too.  I had to watch it again.  I'm going to check the Lone Star web site, and see if they have anything about this break of Scaggs' quietus. 

Jim the Dandiest:  (A) I don't know how you find this stuff, and (B) I had no idea something that great would be on YouTube.  It's obviously pretty old.  Great way to remember Merv Griffin.  I was said to hear he died on the news this morning.

Thought I would start my day by sharing some ole favourites of mine.

I saw David Essex on tour in Manchester a good few years back and he was still as good as he ever was.

TexasToest: I was at the beach when I heard about Elvis dying.

My Mom still has the unused tickets to the concert he was scheduled to do in Maine the next day!

Family Man: I was on my way to the stereo store to buy the replacement cassette deck for the one that hd been stolen from my home.Isn't it funny how we can so vividly remember certain dates.I even remember the intersection I was at when it came over the radio
