  1. Story above reminded me of a pic of my brother and Dusty, taken somewhere in downtown Austin, my brother worked a lot of the clubs on Red River so could have been at one of those...
  2. That damn fine print
  3. First think I thought of, they're just ripping off Brian Regan. "Take luck!"
  4. Yeah, he did that here on KLBJ as well. Dale Dudley used to play a phone message from Joe, Dale had slandered him on the morning show, saying he was high or something like that, and Joe found out, the left a message threatening to sue Dale "for everything you got! I love a war man! So get a good lawyer!" (still remember that word for word) But yeah, RIP Jim. Only knew him from his projects with Roger Waters, and then later on his Sirius show. Classic DJ voice and excellent interviewer. As a radiophile, a good DJ could transport you anywhere, fill your head with things and sounds you never dreamed of. One of the best ever for sure.
  5. Good ol' Ralph Fisher, my parents were friends with him. Got some video somewhere of him on the Letterman show with Dave and a brahma bull, and then riding a longhorn steer out back of the NBC building. I knew Bill Ham ran ZZ Top but damn, no fun of any kind! In the '70s heyday no less.
  6. If you're on the road Saturday morning head north from Crowley about 20 miles to Fred's Lounge in Mamou. Live cajun music with a radio simulcast and a whole lotta drinking and dancing. Opens at 7:30 and is standing room only by 8:30 or so.
  7. Just saw that, dammit. RIP sir. Unsung hero of many of my favorite bands, as mentioned above.
  8. I know somewhere on here it's been discussed, because someone brought up the Whittakers, that's how I found the channel. Wow. The wife and I spent a whole evening watching some of those. Sad thing is, we both have some relatives that are not that far off, on the poverty/low education level anyway, not the straight-line family tree... And like the Whittakers, they are perfectly happy. I really like that the guy doesn't judge at all, just wants to capture the human condition from all sides, and try to help out if he can. Something to be learned from that.
  9. 512 IPA for me, Shiner Cheer for the missus, this after a pitcher of Blood and Honey
  10. Ah, that makes sense now, lil fish just got a charity scholly to be a kicker at Samford, nsiap
  11. Checking Discogs it looks like it does
  12. Screenshot of the insert from the 7-inch single.
  13. AI is the greatest and worst thing to ever happen to music
  14. Very cool story about the clock on the back cover of the single...
  15. Went to see Genesis at the Astrodome on their We Can’t Dance tour, they held their tour rehearsals in that hangar. Also, grew up off of I-10 west of Sealy, whenever there would be a big UT football game they would sent the blimp out the Friday before and it would fly right over our house. That’s all I got.
  16. Because pizza and beer for supper wasn’t enough, just a final fuck you to the diet, well there’s always tomorrow
  17. Buddy Rich Oh, not for his drumming, for his ability to rip his band to shreds afterwards...
  18. Goddam Google phone or whatever it is, if I have to hear one more time, "will you marry me" "WAHHHHHHGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!".
