  1. Studio songs that end with the volume fading out and the band still playing. Still waiting to see that replicated live.
  2. I'm late to the party on this one - but I did take the time to skim the 6 pages so hopefully this hasn't been mentioned. Rankings are based on number of posts, right? Any possibility/thoughts on it being on positive reactions to posts instead?
  3. I just got paid today Got me a pocket full of change
  4. I was at work when a co-worker got a call from his friend who worked downtown telling him people were jumping from the building. I honestly can't remember if the caller knew what had happened yet, but I don't think so. Sadly my sister-in-law lost her father that day. He was working security and was last seen evacuating kids from a day care center.
  5. With thanks to @JaCrispy Stick with this till the bluesy end before you form an opinion either way.
  6. Damn - the show scheduled for next week in my area got cancelled.
  7. Can't breathe until you choke Gotta laugh when you're the joke There's nothing like a funeral To make you feel alive Just open your eyes, just open your eyes And see that life is beautiful
  8. @Gugny @Another Fan Thoughts on the Baez thumbs down comments? I try not to overreact, but this feels like a watershed moment for Cohen. I would cut Baez tomorrow.
  9. So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin' Hopin' for the best Even think I'll go to prayin' Every time I hear 'em sayin' That there's no way to delay that trouble comin' every day
  10. Agreed on Lindor's first year in NY. But I'd feel better if he went on a mini-tear in the next few weeks. I watched the Koosman ceremony, great stuff. I started watching the Mets in earnest in the early 70's. Koosman was always second fiddle to Seaver who was just on another level. The other pitcher that was great was Jon Matlack but he didn't have the career Koosman had. Nice to see Kooz get his due. I remember hearing about the Seavers and Growing Pains but not Koosman. That was around the time I graduated college so that show wasn't in my wheelhouse. Cool trivia though.
  11. Saturday in the park I think it was the Fourth of July
  12. To me this season is about two things: injuries and under-performers. The first half run gave me a lot of hope because they were doing it in spite of a ridiculous number of injuries and some gross under-performers (I'm looking at you Lindor and Conforto). I kept hoping they'd get healthy and Lindor, Conforto and others would come back to center, but neither happened. Hell, even if DeGrom had come back we'd probably still be in the mix, not to mention Thor. They bring in Baez and what happens? He gets hurt. They bring in Cameron Maybin and what happens? He goes 1-28. Some of the big moments of the first half came from the likes of Billy McKinney, Pat Mazeika and Johneshwhy Fargas. And yet through all of that they were still in first. In hindsight they would have been better off with Springer over Lindor. They don't have a true CFer, they have a LFer playing right and a 1B playing LF. And a DH playing 3B many nights. Not sure what to think of the manager, nothing I particularly love or hate about the guy. The guy I have no use for is the GM. Every time he opens his mouth I want him to shut it. One of the hopes/rumors from last off-season is we'd bring in Theo Epstein. I'm still on board with that.
  13. My jacket's going to be cut and slim and checked Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck I ride a GS scooter with my hair cut neat I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet
  14. But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no I'm not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
  15. Outstanding! Good time for a 13 year old to be a Bills fan. My two are a few years older and loving where this team is right now after growing up with a lot of shoulder shrugs and eye rolls.
  16. Get along, Kid Charlemagne
  17. Sad sad sad But you're gonna be fine RIP
  18. That's right, you heard right, the Secret Word for tonight is Mud Shark! And of course with the Mud Shark Secret Word is the Mud Shark Arpeggio... a marvelous little arpeggio, and now the mating call of the adult male Mud Shark... Mud Sh-sh-shark
  19. City of tiny lites Don't you wanna go Hear the tiny auto horns When they tiny blow Tiny lightnin' In the storm Tiny blankets Gonna keep you warm Tiny pillows Tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny sheets Talkin' bout the tiny cookies That the peoples eats
  20. My heart is black and my lips are cold Cities on flame with rock and roll Three thousand guitars, they seem to cry My ears will melt and then my eyes
  21. Twenty-four hours a day Hey, why don't you go down to the supermarket? Get something to eat, steal something off the shelves Pass by the liquor store, be back about quarter to twelve Don't wanna be your slave
  22. I took the fam to a game a few years ago and we opted for a later flight. The way I saw it there was no way I was gonna spend my day stressing about making a flight. What if it turned out to be a long game that came down to the last play or went to OT? No way I was going to miss that hurrying out of the stadium. The game I went to was close well into the 4th quarter. We stayed the whole game, let most of the stadium empty before we headed out basking in the win. We had time to stop for dinner on the way to the airport and it was very cool being amongst happy Bills fans, it really capped off the weekend. Not an apples to apples comparison with you since I'm a lot closer than Atlanta, but if you're heading to Buffalo specifically to see a Bills game I'd try to prioritize the game over the flight home.
  23. Revolution in their minds the children start to march
  24. Bang Bang, what's that sound I gave you my love and you shot me down
