So @DPLongo22 I never heard of Disturbed. That clip with the little girl was great, and I took a quick look at YouTube, which I try to avoid, but get sucked into for music. Quick look only brought up Sounds of Silence. Wow. Thanks. What else can you point me to?

Sounds of Silence was an unusual choice for them. They're one of the mid-90s "Nu Metal" (I think that's what they called it) bands. Staind, System of a Down, etc..

It's an acquired taste for some people, and definitely not for everyone. Nothing revolutionary, musically speaking, but can be fun in the right settings.

They're most commonly known for a sound Draiman came up with, which is an odd "yell" that sounds like, "WAH-AH-AH-AH!" He once said that kids do it when they see him, and he's often surprised that young kids even know it. You'll see what I mean in clip below, at the beginning of the song.

Like I said, not for everyone, and scaring a little girl at a live show is certainly not difficult to imagine.

I've always found him to be a very likeable guy. Seems to be grounded, at least from afar.

perhaps. But, having spikes through one's face may very possibly scare little kids

As @Katdarling would say, "Then there's that."

Buffet has gone.

I woke to this news yesterday morning and was also quite bummed about it. Jimmy was a brilliant spirit and a pioneer in many ways. The world lost a good one in him. Godspeed, Mr. Buffett.

That just might be the best idea I've heard this year!

Speaking of getting sucked in, you move to FL and start sharing Skynyrd vids? Well, I NEVER thought I'd see the day...

 

[DPLongo22]

...and I never realized how much Donnie and John Rich sound alike before. Maybe it's just my mood today - I do not know.

Play Still Unbroken and Save a Horse back to back and tell me they're not the same song with different lyrics.

In the words of The Critical Drinker:
"That all I've got for today. Go away now."

...and for encore this week, it's only proper to turn back another clock.

G'nite, world.

I had to tone the music down a bit. Driving a golf cart in a 55+ got strange looks with "The Pretty Reckless" playing..... Well I got looks. Freaking old people.

Screw 'em if they can't take it. Loud and proud, Sir Knees. Loud & proud.

It's good to see that you still have your priorities straight.

You don't miss me at all, do you? Heck - I can't rightly blame ya...
