ain't NOTHIN' like the Eastown Theatre used to be, is there? Then hustle across to your 'hood for the Melody Arts afterward, LOL. Yup....a "seiko football" night, LOL.

I never got to the Eastown. Got to the Grande once. Remember Russ Gibb? He's a staunch conservative now with his own Dearborn-oriented web site.

I've got tickets for the Stooges show in Detroit this April. It's going to be a long drive from New Hampshire, but I wanted to see them in their hometown!!!

I'm A Conservative Lyrics
Artist: Iggy Pop
Album: Soldier



I used to lead a quiet life
In fact it was a bare existence
I passed out on many floors
I don't do that any more

Hello my friends
Is everybody happy?
Hey look me over
lend me an ear
I'm a conservative

I like the small black marks on my hands
I'm a conservative
I like the crazy girls that I screw
Hey I know them all well

And when I run out of bread I laugh
All the way to the bank
Sometimes I pause for a drink
Conservatism ain't no easy job

I smile in the mornings
I live without a care
Nothing is denied me
And nothing ever hurts

I got bored so I'm making my millions
When you're conservative you get a better break
You're always on the right side
When you're conservative

You walk with pride
Pride is on your side
Pride pride pride
Is on our side
Oh boy
Pride is on our side

I like my beer
I like my bread
I love my girl
I love my head

I'm in the clear man
I'm in the dear
Because I'm a conservative
I'm a conservative
I really am
Oh yes l am

And it would mean so much to me
If you would only be like me
Yes it could mean so much to me

Hey look me over
lend me an ear
I'm a conservative

I warned you. The link below is a .wma download (like a .mp3) of my daughter and I performing "No Fun." Please be kind.

No Fun

[jdm]

I love it -- too cool! She has a great voice and it's really rocking. What attitude!

I'm glad you posted it -- made my day.

[To Hell With Poverty]

Ohmigod that's so cute!!!! :D

How old is your daughter?

[To Hell With Poverty]

Hee hee hee hee....since you brought it up....Yngwie Malmsteen, LOLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!

You must be an engineer....LLLLLOOOOLLLLL!

(all in good fun, my FRiend. As you can probably tell I'm more moved by "fire in the belly" than precision at the fingertips. Yup it's a pretty subjective thing!) ;)

[subterfuge]

Iggy made music? Who knew? I thought he was just a wacked out personality that dated Ziggy Stardust.

[zook]

Thanks! She's 12 now, but probably had just turned 11 when she sang that.
