Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread

Already covered in the 90's: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5b/Eight_heads_in_a_duffel_bag.jpg I can't believe the odd, destructive career choices Pesci made. Not sure what was more surprising, that Joe Pesci made a lounge album in the late 90s including a rap song: https://www.youtube....

Re: The Trump observations thread

Once again, caught staging an audience reaction. Kind of long, but worth watching all the way through. https://www.instagram.com/p/C5ymTXnRnMc/?hl=en The best part of that interaction was when he ordered "30 milkshakes and some chicken..." Seth Myers had a field day with the clip. He's like how do ...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

Hello, I'm not sure how much this thread is celebrating cheese-iness or is sarcastic, but the 80's (1984) also birthed Stop Making Sense, the best concert film ever. I think it's a little of both. I started it because I have a sincere appreciation for the decade, though acknowledging that the 80s (...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

And 100% of Clash II's! No question, the decade had its share of atrocities. I think there's maybe a case for saying the good parts were particularly good and the bad parts particularly bad, though that's more idle notion than scientific reasoning. That's where I lean. Moreover, the stuff closer to...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

A little bit of both. I can supply content on the awful part. :approve: More so than WWK's efforts? Mine will be intentional. I don't know if any one decade is worse than another but the 80s were pretty horrible in my mind. I was able to ignore the 90s fairly easy but 80s crap and there was so much...

Is this supposed to be actual awesomeness or the equivalent awfulness of Korlexoy thread?

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

A couple further notes. I was curious about the dude playing the tambourine in both videos. That's Ray Thomas, credited as the band's flute player. I guess flute playing didn't make the transition from 70's symphonic rock to 80s synth pop. You just got to hang out on stage with a tambourine until it...

Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

God bless the 80s! A time when I was still a naive kid and not the jaded teen I was in the 90s. I heard this song in the grocery store today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmmPFrkuPq0 It got me thinking about 60s and 70s bands that got a renewed lease in the 80s. I remember this song being all ove...

Re: The Kaleb Horton Deceased Latvian Foreign Minister Thread, 2024 Edition

Carl Erskine, one of key pitchers for the Brooklyn Dodgers on their Boys of Summer teams. I just saw this. I'd long thought it was cool that one of the Boys of Summer was still alive. I'm curious if any Brooklyn Dodgers are still alive? I just looked it up: Bob Aspromonte - 85 years old - played wi...

Re: Mate's Takes - The Weezer Discography

Weezer is interesting to me. I honestly liked the Blue Album and Pinkerton and the Green Album was solid, as well. At some point, however, I just stopped caring about them ... to the point of total indifference and I'm not sure why. Was it just too much of the same thing? I can think of plenty of ba...
