Hung out with LP twice.
Always drama, always a party and a half.

First time: 1999. Tiger Stadium, 313. The Three Tenors tour (w/Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras).

Second time: 2003. Palace at Auburn Hills.


Dude's entourage was remarkable He never seemed to travel with fewer than 3 or 4 Italian supermodels in tow, and the after concert parties were off the chain. Dude lived like a rock star right up until almost the end.

GM was right about one thing, however:
In his first interview with Johnny Carson, he called his art "controlled yelling."

Ouch!

I had finally managed to get that one mind-wiped away. Now it is a spontaneous ear whig and I keep hearing that devil with that haircut . .. . Make it stop!

Waitaminnit!

Is that a young Drew Carey before he became worth our time? Is that where "Full Moon Over Parma" was started for his show?

I LIKED all the music on Drew Carey's show! Just wanted to clarify before I left this post given the thread.

Ford was the first to speak.
"So... what were ya thinkin' when you picked up that ice pick and stabbed that radio DJ 27 times?"
"I wasn't thinking anything."
Decker spoke up.
Wasn't thinkin' nuttin', huh? Hey- we got us a real genius heah-"
"That's right. I had no thoughts at all. None. Only this- earworm."
Decker stood up. He walked over to Clemmy, roughly shoved the perp's head to the side, and peered deeply into his right ear canal.
"I don't see nuttin-"
"Shuddup. It's not that kind of woim- So, kid- what was da earwoim?


Clemmy pointed upward to the embedded video just above this body of text. Ford & Decker looked up toward the ceiling. It was there-
hovering... just above the sick, flickering fluorescent light. Decker reached up- and pressed 'play.'

5 minutes later, Ford unlocked the handcuffs, returned Clemmy's belongings, and held the door of the precinct house as Clemmy exited.

Decker, completely confused, is stunned.
"Why TF didja let him go? We had him dead to rights!!!"
"I'm a fiscal conservative."
"So? What's dat gotta do wit anything?"
"I'm saving the state a lot of money."
"How do ya figya?"
"After the expense of booking, holding, feeding, housing, and providing a fair trial for dis jamoke, there's no jury in the country that would convict. Did ya HEAH dat crapola? Sheesh!"

JMO, but the Comfortably Numb soloing is one of the best ever. Actually, that's not just my opinion. It's one shared by many, especially guitar players.

OMG, I’ve never heard that before and I’m sorry I heard it now. That is by far the worst I’ve ever heard. Mr. Rogers is better. Damn dude, that is all time awful.

Dawg, that thing was hugely viral a few years back. The first time it landed on my fb feed, I thought it might single-handedly do irreparable harm the internet.

It certainly broke my soul for a few weeks.


the stuff of nightmares.
this is GITMO- level stuff right here.

Why is it that I sort of liked America's version of "Muskrat Love"?

Looking back, a moral deficiency maybe.

BTW... The Captain's version works out well in the RV crash in "Anchorman 2".

It's an acquired taste.
I'd never played an opera until I went away to school. Played 3 or 4 of them before something clicked- and I didn't hate it any more.

So I understand.

There is one song that I have a kinda love/hate thing going with it.

First I have always loved the Stones.

However, when Satisfaction came out back in the day when radio was a big source. They played that song on every station 50 times a day for like a year or more.

I got to the point that when the first bar was played it was "nooo not again."

It just wore on me. Even today when I hear I kinda cringe.

The Geneva Convention has to bar that from being used at Gitmo. Water-boarding is more humane.
