The worst of the 70's?
Every pasty, long haired, and soon to be bald white man who played a keyboard, electric guitar, or a freakin flute(a flute and thought it was cool, what the fu..!!!?)
and I am white you bunch of crackas!
Yes, there was much to dislike about the 1970s!
Billy Beer. I actually drank one of those, despite being under age! Billy Carter was the best part of that family, IMO.
He's the baddest arse flute player Rock & Roll will ever have!
Never been a Kiss fan, unlike some of the flunkies around here! ;o)
Gotta get that T-shirt!
I do. The Pink Panther cereal was very short lived though!
Excellent Post, Mr. Bannon!
Yes, leftist scum in American politics is unfortunately alive and well today!
Hey, I liked the AMC Pacer. A fishbowl on wheels!
Detroit Rock City!!
You sure have crummy tastes for a white guy! ;o)
Roger (Clinton) that!
Money Honey she wants breakfast in bed.....
Don't be messin' with my song man. Boo was cool. LOL
LOL!
I think that Dee Dee Ramone admitted in his book that he liked "Saturday Night". It certainly harkens back to the type of rock and roll they were trying to emulate.
Not that different from "Rock & Roll Radio"
Don't blame me for this time waster, SilentServiceCPOWife put me up to it!
