The wildest thing I ever went to was a AOL member meetup in the 90's.. OMG nasty... I was shocked and as you say it takes a lot to shock me after people watching in bars. It was like I entered hell.. unbelievable behavior. They even shocked the band.

The last band he was in full time was a Jimmy Buffet Tribute band, those were always fun.. good fun, parrotheads love to party.

Now he just jams on Wed night in a blues club.. After he bought his last Hammond B3 ( portable one this time.

This I do not believe.
There is no such thing as a Jimmy Buffet Tribute Band.
...funny...you had me going there for a moment. Really?
"salt, where's the damn salt"?

After he bought his last Hammond B3

Wha?....how many does he have? There's not that many on the planet. He's a fortunate man.


I have a similar problem with my wife rarely coming out to the club. When she does come out I make a big deal out of it and show her lots of attention. She's my favorite audience. She "gets" it...and she get it.
I found out that it actually increased my popularity with the damsels. Women are interesting people by default. I will never understand their own unique primitiveness (different than men's) and it doesn't really matter. They're always fun and full of surprises...because I'm kind of slow.

Reading the stuff I posted at 4:40 A.M. before I got to sleep is painful.

Garratt Wilkin & The Parrotheads - #1 Jimmy Buffet tribute band

 

[seamonkey]

God yes. And I now owe the hospital $300 for a sleep study that they tested me for the wrong thing. My insurance would only cover it if it was a sleep apnea test, which I don't have.

I'm bipolar, so thats my sleep issue. I can't take stuff like Ambien and sonata because it makes me really hyper and manic.

I'm taking seroquel right now and it seems to be working

Well I was glad to be up late last night. My bunny gave birth and I would have lost some to the cat if I hadn't been up. These are not pets by the way. Strickly a matter of protein.

 

[Bageone]

you eat cats????

Are you speaking in some kind of code, Brad?
I detect:
A: Not enough sleep.
B. Not enough protein.
C. Not enough protein and sleep.
D. Too much stimulation.
E. Not enough stimulation
F. Either too much or not enough stimulation.
G. Wrong kind of stimulation
H. Right kind of stimulation mixed with the wrong kind.
I. Not enough sleep compounded by insomnia.

Am I getting close?
Let's share. I'm ( being silly) here for ya, man....

Oh my goodness its freaking 5:30am jeez why am I still up, this thread made me notice the time lol.

 

[quasimod]

06:18, I WIN! Is there a prize?

 

[BradSmith]

06:18, I WIN! Is there a prize?

Sure is, if you stay up long enough you get to see things other people don't. Oh no, that might not be a good thing. Depending on if those things were really there or not!

YouTube - Lidsville opening


Wait a second, I think I did see that, when I was a kid. What were my parents thinking. Playing this and the Doors at the same time, no wonder I can't sleep.

 

[Youthful313]

I'm always up late night and I see you Michigander that are up with me. I'm ususally up all night editing video or music and just leave this on my browser. I always come back evey once and a while to check PIF or messages.

I just remembered this video of an old home town friend, Randy Sharp.

It's kind of crazy how you will see the same people up night after night. 4:30 am right now and I'm still not ready, oh well. Here is something to mellow out the late nighters.

YouTube - Moody Blues - Tuesday Afternoon (1970)

 

[Youthful313]

Moody Blues FTW music was so much better back then. It still had soul till my gen decided to recycle everything and put pop music over it.

 

[mixitman]

There are still some very soulful artists out there.. it's just tougher to find them sifting through the garbage the press considers 'music'

Joss Stone jumps to mind right away

YouTube - Joss Stone - Son of a Preacher Man

 

[Youthful313]

Joss Stone is awesome. Yeah I kinda over generalized my statement. There is still some good music out there but it's definitely not on the popular radio stations. It's all about selling a image and sex now a days. IMO Joss is way hotter then most popstars b/c her voice makes her hot.
