  1. Old people die. It's been happening since the beginning of time. WE notice it more because people post news articles constantly, and repost and repost. There is a secret game that is happening where people want to be the 1st to tell 'Their friends' A sort of sick, 'Hey look at me I knew 1st, na na na na nahh' Do you really think back in 1993 people would be concerned if Zsa Zsa Gabor and Debbie Reynolds died? Who would they tell? Their buddy in the cubicle next door? The fact it is on a news feed, on your phone, seems to make it more important than it is
  2. treeduck's post history ????? That's a lot of Saints and refrigerator talk
  3. Take Me To The Top???? Technically I think this is the bottom...rock bottom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3R9_FDz8HA I have to clean my palate...give me the 1982 studio version
  4. If you watch Time Stand Still, that's the kind of loyalty I'm talking about. Some of the fans in the film are quite disturbing to me. I don't get that level of fandom at all. I have been a fan of Rush nearly 40 years but I'm not going to cry because they retired. The dude in the basement with all the mag clippings and memorabilia needs to get a grip. I can't wrap my brain around it. The film had too much of that over the top nonsense which is why I have no desire to own the film. I liked the film in a sense but have no desire to view it again. Plenty of Rush fans love the band in a sane and rational way. Its a great band, but its not life and its not a religion. Just this guys point of view... Oh man. I haven't seen it yet, but the wife ordered it for me as a Christmas gift. Your comments, along with others about fans crying, makes me think I'm in for a cringe fest. Well I just finished watching it. Yeah, I don't have a lot in common with some of those fans. I can't believe anyone would cry from watching the movie. I still haven't seen it but a lot of TRFers admitted to crying. I saw it and am a lifelong fan. It did not affect me at all. I guess because in my heart I knew before R40 started I came to peace with this was it. I honestly felt the movie could have been made better. The skipping of 4 shows here and 4 shows there, was sort of a letdown. Subject matter was mentioned POST tour as opposed to DURING the tour which was what I was expecting. This was a 90 minute recap with video clips as opposed to a Tour documentary No crying

  6. My dog Desmond heard he did not have a photo on TRF. Now I have made him happy. This is his 'Merry Christmas, are you going to finish eating that sandwich?' pose http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/Freedom80065/0428150909a_zpsuwojynmc.jpg
  7. Bound and gagged in your closet, right ?? It's a Christmas Miracle http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/Freedom80065/starbuck_zpshrozluqd.jpg
  8. Mutt Lange That's right. Is he still around? He was a perfectionist. He didn't let them get away with anything. That's why it took almost a year to make Pyromania. Mutt Lange IMO had his ear on what people wanted to hear long before anyone else did. Now open your listening ears....Mutt knew PSSOM was the drum beat hook that got everyone's attention in the 1st 30 seconds Listen to JUST the drum beats of each song, THEY are EXACTLY the same, both produced by Mutt He just replaced the guitar part with a fiddle on Shania's song And the song structure is almost identical except the chorus speeds up in AMOM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ4xwmZ6zi4

  10. I remember that. In a way, they got lucky. The first single (Women) really did not go very far and it was only after the album had been out for a while that the album really took off. Not often you put out an album, have the first single not do great, have the album go along selling ok for a while and then have the album turn into a monster and one single after another just go huge. Speaks volumes as to how the album was a great fit for the time and that it was a deep album. Also, they were a great "fit" for lack of a better phrase with the MTV of the day. They also toured like beasts once PSSOM was a hit. They had sold something like 2 million copies of Hysteria the 1st 8 months, then sold like 7 million copies the next year
  11. Or a hidden mousetrap like in a cartoon... I could use a mousetrap too. I am ashamed to say that with three cats in the house, we actually have a mouse. It's a disgrace that we have any mice. How did that happen? Where did it get in? I don't know how the mouse got in, but he ate my Rice-A-Roni. The San Francisco treat There's not much left for them to eat in there. I cleaned the pantry out. They even ate my table napkins. I hear them squeaking sometimes. There must be more than one. You definitely have more than 1. Most likely you can also hear them in the walls at night. Thats when we would always start to realize that they had decided to move in with us for the winter. Since we did not want to run a bed & breakfast for them, thats when we would have to start taking action. Our cats were always outdoors cats. They would be allowed in during the day but at night they were put out and went off to the barns where they stayed and hunted. Good mousers but sometimes they just need help. Esp. the few time the mice turned out to be rats. Cats wont do anything about them. So, when we got to the point the cats needed help we would use mouse poison. Forget traps. Not very effective. Also, forget poison that comes in pellets. The darn things will cary it away and store it for when they get very hungry. The best stuff comes in blocks that they can eat but not carry away. I recomend something called Tomcat. Put it down in the celler (if you have one) and the things will happily eat it and die. Our cats never got interested in eating an already dead mouse so they were never impacted by it - plus they had no interest in the poison. And they had plenty of mice to hunt and eat out in the barns and in the fields. Try Tomcat if your cats cant do the job. I'll look for it. I don't think I ever heard of the product. I'd buy traps but I'm afraid I may find a half dead squirming mouse in one of them. Here in upstate NY you can get it at most True Value Hardware stores or Agway's. I also agree with you about what you could find in a trap. Of course, if the poison works, get ready for the wonderful stench of dead / rotting mouse. The aroma is distinctive - not in a good way. But it will go away and it beats having mice in the house. Say, the thread now has references to Def Leppard, Rat(s) and Poison - I wonder how many more 80's hair mettel groups can get squeezed in?? I once sold my old Chevy Nova to a guy named Aldo. He was then Aldo Nova........
  12. To explain to how popular Hysteria was: A good friend of mine was a FM Top 40 DJ when 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' blew up Remember the Album had been out for 8 months when that song was released as a single. When it hit, Ken and his team said it was so popular by request they were forced to play the song every 90 minutes. That lasted 2 years. 2 YEARS!! They were the Number 1 radio station in Oklahoma City the entire time.
  13. In very brief spurts yes, but mostly a big NO He was fine as a bit part actor, never should have had a single leading man role. Chris Kataan is going WTF??? << Another hack The funny thing is Rob thinks he is more talented than he really is: It was after Grown Ups that Schneider stopped appearing in Adam Sandler films. He was still name-dropped in Jack and Jill, which was his last mention in a Sandler movie. On a radio show, Schneider claimed that he wasn't doing Grown Ups 2 because he wasn't being paid enough (Wanted the same pay as Rock, James and Spade) and also that his schedule didn't work out with his new TV show (the latter being a lie, since his show was done filming by the time Grown Ups 2 started production). The filming of Grown Ups 2 took all of 47 days.
  14. Not a fair comparison, no person on Earth owns every Marley album, except members of the Marley family. Plus Hemispheres has not been handed to every incoming college freshman for 40 years straight........... BUT IT SHOULD BE :D-13: I bet serious reggae fans own every one of his albums. Where are these 11 people on Earth located? 2.8 million people in Jamaica and if you count it's offshoot reggaeton then you end up with countless more millions in Latin America and more. If it means anything, Bob Marley has 74,514,909 likes on Facebook. That's at least eleven. That 11 real people and 74 million posers
  15. goose keep us updated I have heard so many conflicting reviews of this show. Let us know how Season 1 and 2 are
  16. Keep hoping for a Genesis reunion tour Seems unlikely, but Phil said his son will be playing drums on his brief 2017 solo tour. Phil can't drum at all anymore. Nerve damage and will mostly be seated due to physical limitations
  17. ^^THIS ^^ Is a great analogy Mosher. And right on point
  18. If you want to feel old and depressed Next Year they could put in: Wu Tang Clan Dave Matthews Band Counting Crows Sheryl Crow Snoop Dogg
  19. That is cool But all of my record albums were destroyed in the great Bong fire of 1989 I'm not falling for that marketing ploy again

  21. I Shot the Sheriff? (I'm sure you heard Clapton's version.) No Woman, No Cry? Jamming? Just Clapton's version. Honestly, I cannot recall having ever heard one Bob Marley song. I'm sure I must have but, whatever it was, it wasn't very memorable to me. It's because it's not memorable
  22. ^^THIS^^ Is more the normal than most people think.
