In music class at school (part of an arts rotation), we were treated to a recording of a song (the song and the reason we were listening to it is lost to me now). The tape the song was recorded on had been brought in by one of my classmates and had been recorded over previous material. As the song ended, the music teacher started talking without stopping the tape player. All of a sudden, this strange song came on with music that almost none of us had ever heard. Startled, the music teacher let us hear the entire thing. While many in the class mocked the "music," it caught my attention and opened up whole slew of discoveries in early electronic music that I enjoy to this day.

My Dad got a good laugh from this Johnny Cash song

11/11 #2/2

Is there anyone who didn't grow up listening to Johnny Cash?

Being from Detroit and having several family members who worked for the auto companies, I got a big kick out the Johnny Cash song about stealing pieces of a Cadillac from his job over the course of many years until he had enough to build a whole car. :laugh:

Now days the so called artists are people and groups that sing songs written by others and they dance choreographed moves. I prefer the music/songs that were mostly written by those singing and playing it. (there is some not written by those that made it famous but at least they were the ones playing the instruments while they performed)

This song states it pretty good.

One day, not long ago, I heard hysterical laughter coming from the "Man Cave" downstairs. When the hubster came upstairs I asked what was so funny and he showed me this video. It's not as funny to me (then again, I don't drink), but he loves it! And that laughter of his is priceless... :)

I started playing WoW a while before my parents passed away, however, after my Dad passed away I totally immersed myself in it. Yes, the game is that big! I was still playing 18 months later when my Mom passed away and so I stayed immersed in it for a looooong time after that. My guild used Ventrilo to talk and there were several 'guildies' who'd stay up with me during the long nights on Vent, just talking, even if we were just 'farming' or hanging around in town. Some that had lost a parent helped talk me through it; others who hadn't would just listen and be there with me. I never met any of those people in real life, but I don't know how I would have gotten through all that depression and sorrow without them. So much support, given freely, by basically strangers.

This video reminds me of what I'll be missing tomorrow... The newest xpac of WoW, Warlords of Draenor, comes out tomorrow! Everyone wants gear, everyone wants to get through the new areas and content. Sometimes different factions get in each other's way lol! This is an old video but it always makes me laugh, probably because the Alliance Human is getting 'camped' and killed by a Horde Blood Elf! :)

It's a great game and it's a fun game, but it can also be a community. And when you're down, it's also a world you can get lost in.

For the Horde!!!

Growing up in the 70's, my friends and I all had crushes on Olivia Newton-John. One of my friends discovered that his parents were hoarding presents in the trunk of their car and we snuck out to see what he could expect under the tree. We were all jealous to learn that he had Olivia's album "Totally Hot" was one of those presents.



Oh yea...Olivia. Mmmm! I had her poster on my wall when I was young. From her "Let's Get Physical" album..you know the one with her holding the weights and dressed scantly? :laugh: BIG difference in what was considered as dressed scantly then... and now!! Back then it was tasteful and not tooooo much. Just enough for the imagination! :)

Yep...I had a crush on her too. And Lita Ford a while later...;)

Good choice!

The memories keep coming and this was the first concert that I ever attended in this type of venue at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit and was one of the best show's I've ever seen...Procol Harum with Robin Trower on guitar was great in 1968! :2cool: :vapor:



Hey Dave!

Ah yes, Procol... Lot's of good tunes besides the "Lighter Shade of Pale" which seems to be more recognized by most. I dig the cover Art on their albums too. A lot of the bands from that era have killer album Art! Fantastic!

Good one! I'm a fan of 80's-90's Electronica too. Good stuff...;)
