Arcadia. :)
OMG! You're a Duran Duran fan!
*LOL*
Want me to give you a treat?
AAH! Stupid early-middle aged brains...
Well now, I certainly can't turn THAT down! :)
Durans just played on Leno.
Yasmin Le Bon. (Simon's missus).
There ye go!
Never say, I didn't ever do anything for you! ;-)
Boy, the memories....Huey Lewis & The News, Men At Work, Michael Jackson (back when he was human), Frankie Goes To Hollywood (Relax!), Hall & Oates, WHAM! (yes, I liked 'em), Laura Branigan (RIP), soooo many others.
I saw Debbie Gibson in concert. Yes, I said it. It's true. :)
She strongly resembles a little red X in a box. :)P
That's what you get for being a bold boy! *LOL* Bet you get coal in your stockings at Christmas too! *L*
The tunes from 79-83 (maybe 84) are, in my incredibly biased opinion, the greatest era in radio. Fun, revolutionary, well-written. Varied. The list keeps going. Mid to late 60s is the only thing I'm familiar with that might rival that time frame for the volume of enjoyable music that was available on the radio.
GoGos, Gary Newman, Modern English, English Beat, Crowded House, Split Enz...
"Cars" by Gary Numan was a great song. He became HEAVILY involved in right-wing politics afterwards.
The three deceased drummers who played with Roibert Plant are: John Bonham, Tony Thompson and Cozy Powell.
Joke..remember how all the Spinal Tap drummers kept dying mysteriously...one self immolated on stage.
Ya got me...didnt follow drummers much.
Except....Tony Williams...Ginger Baker...John Hiseman...Buddy Rich...Elvin Jones...Carl Palmer...Neal Pert....hmmm..who else
Now its Dave Weckl...Dennis Chambers...
Youre good dude...
hmm. didn't know Tony Thompson was dead. And I didn't know Cozy Powell and Plant played together. No soup for me!
Okay...got one for you.
What is the connection between the late British folk rock group Renaissance and pop singer Rod Stewart?
Clem Burke from Blondie is the reason I'm a drummer, lo these 25 years later. Guy was amazing. Got a chance to tell him in person about ten years ago. One of those "I can now die happy" moments.
Peart is super. Incredible tragedies followed him recently. Yeah, I got the Spinal Tap joke, LOL.
