Gabba Gabba We accept you We accept you One of us I don't wanna be a pinhead no more I just met a nurse that I could go for

I was working that night at a hotel. I was a bellboy. I was at the front desk and the parking lot attendant came in and mentioned to me how disappointed he was that he had to be working and had to miss the final episode of MASH. The girl working at the front desk overheard this and gave us a key to an unoccupied hotel room so we could watch it there. She said she would call the room if anyone checking in needed help with luggage. The parking lot attendant raised the parking lot gates so he didn't have to be there. We got a couple drinks from the bar and took them to the room and watched there.

I smoked my first cigarette at ten And for girls, I had a bad yen And I had quite a ball When I was young

London calling to the imitation zone Forget it brother, you can go it alone London calling to the zombies of death Quit holding out and draw another breath

I remember the nights were cool I can still see the water pool And I remember the girl that I knew From Yellow River

Another child star died a couple weeks ago. Adam Rich, who played Nicholas on Eight is Enough. He was 54. RIP to both.

They got Chuck Berry up in outer space Singing Johnny B Good Down on earth he's doing time Said he'd pay those taxes if he could It's all so complicated now

My favorite Repo Man quote: The lights are growing dim. I know a life of crime brought me to this sorry fate. And yet, I blame society. Society made me what I am.

I call you on the telephone My voice to rough with cigarettes I sometimes feel I should just go home But I'm dealing with a memory that never forgets

The Endless Summer (1966)

Oasis - Don't look back in anger INXS - Don't Change Sinead O'Connor- The emperors new clothes Coldplay - Life in Technicolor

Repo Man (1984) Why? It's totally original, weird, funny, great characters and dialogue. Seen it at least 50 times. A Clockwork Orange would be in my top 5 favorite movies.

Did you ever see the faces of the children? They get so excited Waking up on Christmas morning Hours before the winter sun's ignited

It's Alive- The Ramones Live Bullet - Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band

Dramatic but in a horrible way. I was 8 years old and watching the Indy 500 and Sweed Savage crashed his car and it burst into flames. One of his crew members ran to help and was hit by a firetruck and died instantly. Savage initially survived the crash but died in the hospital later.

I didn't get to talk to Bonnie Raitt when she was there but everyone who did said she was really nice.

I was working in a hotel in 1982 and Bonnie Raitt and her band and road crew stayed there. I saw them checking in at the front desk and I saw Ian McLagan, the keyboard player for The Faces, The Small Faces and the Rolling Stones on their 78 and 81 tours. I went up to him and said I was a big fan and asked him for his autograph. He said he was happy that I recognized him. He said "It boosts me ego." Several hours later it was 11PM and I was done working and ready to leave the hotel and I saw Ian walking into the hotel bar by himself. He saw me and asked me if I was still working. I said no I'm done for the day. He said: Care to join me in the pub for a few drinks? I did and talked and drank with him until the bar closed at 2AM.

He was great as Shoeless Joe Jackson in Field of Dreams too. RIP.

Dwight Yoakam in Slingblade also.
