Re: Today I learned …
Speaking of James Taylor, I was at Panera yesterday and observed a man blasting "Fire and Rain" while eating in his car. I almost knocked on his window to ask him what the hell happened in his life to lead him to this.Rat Patrol wrote: ↑23 Jan 2017, 10:13pmJackson Browne is for Boomers who've pretty much given up on their prostates, but not given up quite thoroughly enough to stake out an aisle seat nearest to the restrooms at the suburban indoor ampitheater James Taylor is playing at.

… the guitarist and left fielder from The Outfield died a few years ago. At least he never saw the Bounce commercial that turned their crappy song into an abomination.

… while there are no original members left, Quiet Riot has existed for over 40 years (and have a new album out tomorrow).

And they have an American Idol singer? The gradual decline of American Idol singer success from mildly successful pop singer (Kelly Clarkson) to joining a nostalgia act seems right.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑03 Aug 2017, 11:50am… while there are no original members left, Quiet Riot has existed for over 40 years (and have a new album out tomorrow).
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

As I understand it, yes. Not quite as obvious as what INXS did, but in the same realm.matedog wrote: ↑03 Aug 2017, 12:30pmAnd they have an American Idol singer?

Eddie was 1988. You really did lose a decade, didn't you?101Walterton wrote: ↑22 Oct 2016, 8:23pmShe was always a shoe in for a third term.
I thought she died the same year Eddie The Eagle flew, back in the 1970's.
