T&C

Well, he drinks gasoline instead of gatorade so there's the reason.

Yep, that one, the Zeppelin one and the Stones one in that style are bogus for sure... you can find those at flea markets.

Wish he was coming to the west side of the state, no way can I make it over to the east coast... which one are you going to? 10/24/18 Culture Room Ft. Lauderdale, FL TICKETS 10/25/18 Maxwell C.

For any WCF Dead fans this is your go to group: https://unclejohnsband.com/

Zappa plays Zappa... has to be the best one out there. Oh, IMO of course.

Couldn't say... he has too many to even begin to remember. I love his work but I'm not an expert by any means. Some can't stand his work... I for one like it quite a bit. Kind of like musicians... some like their stuff, some don't... and who really is to argue. No winners.

That Dali for sure. I live 12 miles from the museum as the crow flies. He is a one of a kind IMO... he did things that no one before him had done. One example, imbedding an actual fly in a painting. My favorite painter but I'm not right on that, only for me.

Not really. Gene Krupa designed the first "modern" drum kit that is still used today. He is the captain of the ship for the drumming world as we still know it. Dali developed his own techniques that were not used by anyone before him.

I have heard about this one and they are reputedly excellent... actually I think the chickie here saw them aways back, I'll have to ask her when she wakes up to go to work. For anyone in the Tampa area or visiting... Skippers Smokehouse (they smoke everything) at Nebraska and Skipper Rd. has Grateful Dead night every Thursday featuring Uncle John's Band. These guys have been doing it so long that if you look away from the stage you really can't tell the difference. Well over 1,000 shows by now... highly recommended if you are a Dead fan. https://www.skipperssmokehouse.com/event/grateful-dead-nite-w-uncle-johns-band-free-33-2018-05-31/

You aren't wrong, but you aren't right either. I've been in a lot of these kinds of discussions on various boards and in real life and I have found that no one is ever right. Its all just what your ears and mind like. I personally think that Frank Zappa is the greatest guitar player I've ever seen or listened to... but, I'm not right... only to me or someone else that thinks the same. There are too many through time that aren't in the big 20 or whatever on any given instrument. Heck, any version of Return to Forever blows the windows out of some of these so called greats. But again, I think that but no one can really say who is the "greatest". Apple pie, cherry pie, key lime pie...

Anyone else here into Beatles covers? I actually own this Lp, the kind of music you play when people at the beach start getting a little too close to your area. Believe its from 68'... on Capitol records:

That was in this film too...and yeah, he's crusty for sure. A 60's music/culture/etc. group I'm in on facebook was talking about him/BD yesterday. His oldest daughter has a book out now and she posted to the group. I mentioned something like "holy crap, I guess I'm hanging with the wrong people if we have his daughter posting here/looking in"... and lo and behold Ginger Baker (or who ever posts for him) liked the post and made a comment that "you'll really love it". Probably his daughter but pretty cool nonetheless.

Have you ever watched this? Beware of Mr. Baker

Oh I'm sure it did exist, I don't remember it like you. As far as I can remember riding the slides Anywhere it was always big burlap bags we sat on.

I don't remember Fun&Games, guess we never went there... as a kid my rides fix was Glen Park, and once bigger it was Crystal Beach... Fantasy Island once in a while, they had a Wild Mouse too.

Internet muscles are so tiny I'm surprised you even noticed any.

Pressed rat and warthog have closed down their shop They didn't want to; 'twas all they had got Selling atonal apples, amplified heat And pressed rat's collection of doglegs and feet Sadly, they left, telling no one goodbye Pressed rat wore red jodhpurs, warthog a striped tie Between them, they carried a three-legged sack Went straight round the corner and never came back Pressed rat and warthog have closed down their shop The bad captain madman had told them to stop Selling atonal apples, amplified heat And pressed rat's collection of doglegs and feet The bad captain madman had ordered their fate He laughed and stomped off with a nautical gate The gate turned into a deroga tree And his peg leg got woodworm and broke into three Pressed rat and warthog have closed down their shop They didn't want to; 'twas all they had got Selling atonal apples, amplified heat And pressed rat's collection of doglegs and feet

Let's wish him the best, and many more.

Big WTF happened here. http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-metro-jefferson-airplane-surgery-lawsuit-20180817-story.html# Small piece of the article: “Mr. Balin walked into the hospital able to speak and with fully functional left hand,” the suit says. “By the time Mr. Balin was finally released from the hospital, he had lost half his tongue so that he cannot speak or eat properly.; he also has a paralyzed vocal cord; he has a necrotic left hand and has lost his left thumb; he had become totally disabled and has never recovered properly.”

There is no comparison at all, no one said that, they aren't even close.

I'd have to go with Annie Haslam but AF is for sure in the top 10 here.
