  1. I sincerely apologize to Delbert for neglecting him in this thread, motherfucker taught John Lennon how to play. One of the most overlooked Texas musicians, just realized he's 82, good vibes and hopefully many healthy years to come.
  2. Ending Holy Week in a typical Christian way...
  3. Ten Commandments on right now, an Easter tradition. So cheesy, love it.

    Led Zeppelin

    Saw that posted on Twitter yesterday morning, it was glorious. Think I enjoy it more without vocals. Not a guitar player myself, but the the chords he pulls up in this song are amazing. Coming between IV and Physical Graffiti, this seems to be kind of an overlooked album, but it's definitely one of my favorites. No filler at all, in my opinion anyway. Yes even The Crunge.
  5. Still remember hearing New Year's Day on the radio for the first time. Man, you knew that was something different. War, the Under a Blood Red Sky EP (with the unedited "Electric Co."), Unforgettable Fire, Joshua Tree, even Rattle and Hum, that was quite a stretch. Then KLBJ fucking ruined U2 for me forever when Achtung Baby came out, they literally played one track every hour, One I still like, but I cannot turn the dial quick enough if I hear Mysterious Ways or Even Better.... I tried to give them another chance with Zooropa, honestly just bought it to hear Johnny Cash sing The Wanderer, I did like Numb but overall even Eno couldn't save that mess. Gave up after that. Still give them their props though.
  6. A ways off yet but picked up two for Peter Gabriel here in Austin on Oct 18. Probably the last go round for ol' Pete, trying to catch some of the legends while I can.
  7. For right now, the multiview streams are pre-selected by YTTV, you can't pick your own choices, just whatever games they decide to pair up. Right now I have two, the Creighton/NC State game paired with Iona/UConn, and another one for the women's tournament (really?). There have been other pairings throughout the afternoon, so probably more for the nighttime games, hopefully will get a quad offering for tonight..
  8. Let’s just go ahead and add every commercial during the NCAA tournament. I don’t care how good they are, after seeing them a million times, you will hate them. Already done with ATT Lily, she even looks like she hates being in these pieces of shit. The Capital One commercials get stupider every year. Feel free to add your “favorites”.
  9. Have the matching coffee cup
  10. Saw it at the Varsity on the Drag when it came out. Will go see it again, have the original vinyl and expanded CD releases.
  11. Yes I did, day drinking and all.... Mr. Virgil of course... Found it btw...
  12. Also this Edit to add: my wife is a huge Braves fan due to WTBS, used to keep a notebook with stats on all the players (she's a keeper, and a redhead, so I got that going for me...). Have an Ozzie Guillen autograph stuck somewhere in our house from around 86 or so when we went to go see the Braves play the Stros in the Dome (got to chat with Pops Stargell during batting practice, that was cool...)
  13. Talk about somebody having their own guitar sound. I remember this coming out in the early 80's, right about the same time George Thorogood started getting some airplay, lotta great slide blues on the radio at that time. And of course, goes without saying..
  14. The other one was pretty cool too, and he was banging Shirley Jones, so he had that going for him.
  15. Wow, didn't know it was still open, played out there many moons ago. What is that in the background, looks good.
  16. I live in Taylor. 40 minutes vs 15... Not that I mind driving, almost went to the Roadhouse in Paige, which is a good 35 minutes away, they have great burgers (the one in Bastrop also...)
  17. I think that is Miller's up in Lott. Was always kind of astounded, whenever my polka band would play up at Seaton Star Hall a family of Mennonites would always come out.
  18. Was halfway to the Oscar Store last night when the wife says, "I heard Schroeder's in Thorndale has good burgers..." Now you tell me this? Would have taken half the time to get there. Oh well, for another day. Still had a damn fine burger.
