Whoa! Mike! Impressive! What do you play?

Queen.... now there was a group I just never could warm up to. Other than "We are the Champions", which was AWESOME during the Islanders Stanely cup run back in the 80's...

Sort of like Zeplin for me. Wildly popular, just never did get into them much. Really can't explain why either. :shrug?: I have what I think is a pretty eclectic taste for music too. Just about anything other than hip hop or rap I like. Oh... disco sucked too. :oops: Maybe if I could dance...:laugh:

I would but I'm a terrible E-dancer. I could listen to Queen and Pink Floyd all the time. Freddy Mercury was such a waste of talent. All the good ones go at their own hand it seem like.

National Lampoons All Star Dead Band
Lead Vocals: Janis Joplin & Jim Morrison
Rhythm Guitar: Brian Jones
Slide Guitar: Duane Allman
Lead Guitar: Jimi Hendrix
Bass Guitar: Jerry Garcia Paul McCartney
Keyboards: Harry Truman

Sorry, but being a National Lampoon fan from WAY back (I still have a box of old issues, too), I just had to jump in here to correct the original line-up... and also found this great pic of Harry at the Keys:

Btw, none of those people, nor anyone in Floyd or Queen, died by their own hands... it was either by natural causes, an act of fate or a stupid accident!! (except of course, for Paul... lol)

Just my :2c: is all...

I wasn't talking about the people in the all star dead band and yes freddy did die from contacting aids for his homosexual lifestyle. Janis joplin also died from an overdose as did hendrix etc.
I usually talk about more than one thing in my posts. Sorry if you have trouble following along.

Must have been the drugs. I have no problem following along 5C. :p

Yes... all of which were stupid and senseless, and could have been avoided... but not the same as putting a gun to your head... or swallowing a bunch of pills on purpose.

So sad... such a waste of human life and talent!!

That wasn't my meaning. I guess I should have said as a result of their lyfestyle instead of at their own hand but they both mean pretty much the same to me.

Here is another talented young musician, Kevin Gilbert, who died way before his time (29)... you might not have heard of him, but he pretty much built Sheryl Crow's career... that's her playing keyboards in the background!!



Oh yes, and his was also a stupid 'accident' due to a certain lifestyle choice...
