Jim Dandy: that made me smile!! 

Please say hello and a word of welcome to our new moderator.  I'm happy to have him aboard.  All my help left, and good help is hard to find.  But, we found him. 

Best of luck to you, MadMonkey.  I must be a tyrrant chasing off all those other people.  But, the truth of the matter is I wanted you here all along.  Make yourself at home.

TexasToest: Thanks TT, and Hello all

I hope that i will enjoy myself here in the land of sounds , i love my music and use to be a D.J. back in the 80's (1980's that is lol).

So feel free to carry on as you do, enjoy yourselves, and post anything you wish related to the Board subject

I hate being strict on boards & luckily on very few occasions of had to on the Tournament & Sport ones, so lets hope everyone plays nice

Oh, and any music by Queen is more than welcome, always make me happy

MadMonkey: Mmhmm... I love Queen as well..

One of my favorites is Somebody to Love..

When looking for that, I also found a George Michael version of it, which was really good. (I don't often like someone else doing a classic great song)

rod03801: Yes George Michael sang it at the The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert (1992) - 'Concert for Aids Awareness'.

That was an awesome concert as well, with the rest of Queen introducing and playing in it at Wembley Stadium, read about it below.

The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert

MadMonkey:  Didn't you post some things from that concert not long ago?  I think you did.  It was great stuff.

Welcome Madmonkey! This is a great board....one of my faves!

MadMonkey: Hiya and welcome. Queen is one of my favourite,s as well.Great stuff.

MadMonkey: Gabba gabba we accept you, we accept you one of us!
Gabba gabba we accept you, we accept you one of us!

Jim Dandy:  I don't know how you do it, but you do it.  Totally apropos.

Jim Dandy: Gabba gabba loved it!!!

Awesome...I had never heard of them before but I really like 60's music & enjoyed that, thanks!

awesome: That was,...well...awsome,love The Nuge!..........while we're on the topic,this is my fave tune of his,it's about respect!

TexasToest:
Ewe: I try and have appropriate stuff on hand for all occassions

awesome:  Yeah, Ted Nugent was born a master guitarist.  He made Amboy Dukes, and he broke them too.  But, he remains, as great as ever.

Dandy-Pie:  And, you do such good work!  I wish I had the time to do the research.

Jim Dandy;  Mm mm mm, he touches so many levels of my spirit.  Thanks for that.

MadMonkey: a dj back in the 80's,cool,so was I,6 hours a night 5 days a week with a bunch of regulars,that's alot of music to fill.I remember playing this song,it was the numero uno dance tune at the time,but not a soul danced LOL,a finicky crowd

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abMx3EoXCr0

Jim Dandy: YEAH, great tune

I had to get my local record shop to get the 12" imported version of that as i collected them. In fact i still have that along with nearly all my 12" collection. I gave nearly all my 7" vinyls away years ago , still have the limited editions though.

Thats great to hear again though

MadMonkey: Remember when tainted love/where did our love go,was such a collectible?
good marketing

Jim Dandy: Yep, Soft Cell made a mint with that record. Over here we still have to get up and dance if that comes on, along with Come on Eileen

Those were the days........here we go

MadMonkey: I'll bet they still get free rounds at the pub when that song comes on ;-)

MadMonkey: I absolutely LOVE 80's music! Come On Eileen is one of my favorites too! I don't remember much of it when it was actually popular, but my big Sister was my hero, and I listened to all her older records all the time.

Culture Club... Duran Duran... probably my 2 favorite groups from that era.

Thanks for that video.

But, the truth of the matter is I wanted you here all along. Make yourself at home. (quote from Texas Toest)

Hmmmm, all you had to do was say so and I would have left sooner!

Dolittle:  You didn't have to leave.  We have plenty of room at the top.  Want your old seat back?

Andersp:  That was a great one!  Released 1957.  Do you remember it?????  I do.  Hahaha! 
I heard this on my way home from work tonight, made the drive worth it.  This is a tribute to Bon Scott, rest his soul.  He's been gone since 1980, but I still have to shed a tear when I hear him. 

TexasToest: Oh yes i remember the music from 1957 :)...but to be honest i didnt "discover" At The Hop until i saw the movie American Grafitti 1973  (google)  :)

Andersp:  You're KIDDING!  I might have been watching that American Bandstand show, unless it was previous to 12-58, which it probably was.  That song was still big when we got home from overseas.

Andersp: Quite another hop

Jim Dandy:  You want to tell us about that band, Devendra Banhart?  And, what was that last little skit?

I have this

TexasToest: Yeah,Devendra Banhart reminds me of very early T REX,prior to going electric,.............my second selection was a combo of Python and Hawkwind,kinda trippy.

This tune was a fave from 1999,especially the chorus

I spent waaaaaay too much buying the Jap import cd,but,it was worth it

Great live clip filmed prior to them becoming MTV cartoon characters

Please say hello and a word of welcome to our new moderator. I'm happy to have him aboard. All my help left, and good help is hard to find. But, we found him.

Best of luck to you, MadMonkey. I must be a tyrrant chasing off all those other people. But, the truth of the matter is I wanted you here all along. Make yourself at home.

TexasToest: As you know, I have had trouble accessing this board since the addition of embedded vidoes and my internet problems, plus due to my workload now and having limited time on the site these days, I was unable to keep up with this board and give it the attention it deserves. That is the reason I left my position here and I thought you understood that. It wasn't because you were a tyrant.

I think you have done an exemplary job of being the Main Mod here. You have brought this board to life since you took it over. You have an amazing love of music and have an incredible knowledge of it, and have added to this board a vast array of different musical styles and tastes. That's why I suggested that you take the board from me in the first place.

To be honest, I was a little upset and hurt by your post.

Also, the way you worded your post, it almost gives the implication that we didn't agree with you wanting Mad Monkey here and that is simply NOT true. You never even mentioned adding him as a mod to me. I would have wholeheartedly agreed!

I enjoyed being a part of this board for the time I was involved here, and I thank you for having me here.

Mad Monkey: Welcome and congrats on being a new mod on this board. I'm sure you will make a wonderful addition and be a good support to Texas Toest and give this board the attention it deserves. Thanks for stepping up! </b>

baddessi: Texas was joking I am sure and it was not meant to be taken seriously at all.
It is easy done to take something out of context on these boards.

great lyrics....

Mousetrap: Yes,and I'm sure TT would feel awful that it was misunderstood by anyone,she's my kinda people

awesome: That was cool,................I wonder if they still tour

awesome: great stuff!! thanks for posting that

Mousetrap & Jim Dandy: I guess that's what happened. It was easily taken out of context and misunderstood for me.

MadMonkey: If it was filmed at The Market Square Arena,in Indy,it's his last concert,............and here is Elvis performing his last song

Ewe:  Interesting you brought in Patti Smith.  There were some interviews last week on National Public Radio in which she interviewed Bob Dylan.  I thought they might be up on their podcasts, but the NPR website doesn't find them.  Something else to check into.
