Van Morrison should count a LOT more than just once.

Savoy Brown
John Mayall
Fleetwood Mac (the real one, not the bleating lamb stevie nicks ****)
Graham Bond Organization
ETC

Where does your music collection comes from mainly ?
Add Cream, Blind Faith, Renaissance and Traffic to the list... I would agree that the UK would win this with the exception of the San Francisco sound.
Quicksilver Messenger Service
Its a Beautiful Day
Grateful Dead
The Airplane
Mamas & Papa's
West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band
Big Brother and the Holding Company
ETC.

Those are all the past.
I'd put nivana against some **** def leppard put out and call it Nirvana every day of the week when it comes to rock music. And I loathe Nirvana
I'd put Weezer above duran duran and maybe definitely Leppard too
I like def leppard, too.
Similarly, I'd put a group like Boston against the average brittish band to ride the wave of others over during the rush. You really had a handful of those in the OP that were influential.
Of those, my favorite hands down is the cure.
Nirvana was a UK band... first album is interesting for sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana_(British_band)

10 year old 40" Vizio in my computer room keeps chugging along. Granted it doesn't get much use outside of football and hockey season
7 year old 55" Vizio in my living room still works like a champ
1 year old 32" TCL in my bedroom have had no problems in the limited time I've had it, other than the remote goes thru batteries much faster than my other TVs
I have one of these and it is by far the best picture out there imo. Not sure why it is using up your batteries fast... going on a year and have the same ones when I bought it.

I think that's a cop out. No offense.
What's really the difference? 10k a year... @ the very VERY most? That's really a game changer?
You get what you pay for... And if everything you enjoy is there, you aren't willing to fork out a little more? I find it hard to believe you can't put a price on that OR if you do, it's so low/cheap.
What #s are we talking here that are back breaking?
Not a cop out really... different people have different budgets and agenda's. He isn't kidding on the taxes... they are insane, especially for property owners. Get some land, throw 20 cows on it and you might be alright. I'm more thinking just rent something up there for 5 months and call it a win.

Theme parks never get old. The rush you get riding a roller coaster is one of the best things. The only good thing good about winter and fall is hockey.
Have you ever been to Florida though?

Since I live in Canada its hard for me to move to a warmer climate. Believe me if I could I would move to Florida in an instant. I hate cold and snow. I am so amazed at how many people seem to hate the heat but love the cold.
Besides there is lot more things to do in the warmer weather then in the depths of winter. You can't go to parks like Cedar Point in the winter.
Have you ever Been to Florida? Theme parks get old, just like the beach and you can't ride snowmobiles on sand. Flat as a pancake and boring as !@#$. Thank God football season is right around the bend.

Lakeland? Or Plant City?
I used to have a house on 3 acres in Plant City... loved it but it was too far from work after awhile. Now in the Brandon/Riverview area. You probably live an hour away.

I love South Dakota. We've often thought about moving there. It is a beautiful, no income tax state. The winters though...we'd have to buy another Florida condo.
Did you mean a no state tax state?
What you said is still another possibility, the snow bird thing. We have a condo in Tampa... her niece stays in it for now, and a house on 1/2 an acre 20 minutes east of there. I have thought a lot about this too, I Really want to get back to WNY but I don't want to pay the crazy taxes NYS imposes on everyone.
I appreciate everyone's input, a lot of us will be trying to figure out the same thing at some point in time... not all, but quite a few.
Oh, and no to Arizona lol... don't need 107 kind of heat.

What rationale did the show offer for ranking South Dakota number one?
It was on the cbs nightly news... low taxes, cost of homes, ease of living. Don't know how they came up with this but they did. Shoot them, not me lol...

Have you considered Delaware? They have tax breaks for retirees.
I know zilch about Delaware... any info?
Might be looking from NC to Penn... or, buying somewhere in Wyoming county and just leasing it out to someone who wants to put some cows on it, hence lower taxes.
Early stages here but all opinions are for sure welcomed...

Is your pop in Fla or WNY? I know Florida gets nailed with mega T-Storms...when we get a front moving in up here,my back screams at me. I always thought a very warm climate was good for arthritis,I don't find that to be true at all...each body is different.Also,I took the turmeric route before,without much success.Just maybe my intake was too low...(sprinkled on eggs mostly).I am currently putting 50 mg's of CBD oil under my tongue twice a day now...some days I feel like a rock star..other days I feel like I want to kill somebody. I think the best climate for a person in my condition would be a place like San Diego...I was stationed there when I was in the service...I know a cat that retired there...he's pain free at the age of 71.
Georgia now... eats a **** ton of blueberries too, guess its the genes.

recntly watched a show that said that South Dakota was the best place and New York was the worst.
Live in Florida now, have since the 80's but grew up in WNY. No way we are going to stay here on a permanent basis but there is no state tax so that is a big consideration. I would love to live back in WNY but the taxes are killers... horrible. Anyone here done the snow bird thing? Keep a residence down here and live/rent back home for 5 months out of the year?
Not happening right now but I'm at the edge as my property value keeps going up where I'm at.

I know it could happen at any restaurant (especially a fast food joint), but my wife and I had....ummm, “an event” of biblical whooshing proportions after we had Popeye’s on a Clemson football Saturday. There are not a lot of bathrooms in Clemson, and far fewer between Clemson and actual civilization. It was a day we wish we could forget.
So That's why C.J. stunk it up in Buffalo... case closed.

KFC $5 fillup every once in awhile... original recipe with mashed potatoes.
2nd best is the two fried cod combo at LJS with hush puppys and cole slaw.
Actually they are a tie for me, both are pretty decent. I miss the days when we had a Captain D's here, good stuff for semi-fast food, the nearest one is an hours drive.

we have fished maybe 4 times this entire year. once in February, went to Marathon just as Alberto was getting there to ruin it. fished twice there and once a few weeks ago. It's been a tough year to get out. Trying for one more trip before school starts, but like I said, weather permitting, and boat troubles have bit me this year.
We've been incorporating turmeric into our diets for arthritis and joint pain. Not sure if it's working or not.
The weather Does suck down here in the summer, I'll take WNY all day long... where you can always put more on if its cold but can only take so much off in the heat/humidity down here. I'm off today and I'm inside... rains just came through again and it is a sauna out there. The birds don't seem to mind though, the feeders are jam packed.
Turmeric is for sure a good one to take anyways... heck, Webers mustard is loaded with it, but another good one for joint pain, arthritis, etc. is plain gelatin. My Dad swears by it and the way he gets around at his age it must be working.

The computer online version seems back to normal, haven't checked the app in weeks.

Other than 1 or 2 of these things I pay other people do do this stuff... there is no shortage of landscape services here and quite frankly, at this time of the year they can have it.
Is the UK the most productive country when it comes to music ?
