pssstt.... may be the Christmas lights.

Guyute 07-14-2006 09:54 PM

Poison.

Good call on Green Day, tho. They are about as punk as Kenny Rogers.

Bullitt 07-15-2006 12:18 AM

Guns n Roses
Rolling Stones (Superbowl halftime show was pathetic looking)
Bono
The Pussycat Dolls
Paris Hilton
Insane Clown Posse
"gangsta" rap music

capnhowdy 07-15-2006 02:31 PM

I know I'm not alone when I say The Village People.

funkykule 07-15-2006 06:22 PM

Shakira
Ricky Martin
Jack Johnson .....snorefestzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Snow Patrol

I know this is unrelated but, due to my fear of starting my own thread, here goes:
There's this one word of a song I can't for the life of me remember and I'm pretty sure it was discussed on a thread here, but I can't find it. The word in question was made up for the lyrics and even though it was obviously not a *real* word it was generally accepted and sang. I'm sorry if this seems to be strange and overly-complicated! (I think it was a Prince song but not sure) Please Help me :thepain: It's wrecking my head!

Ibby 07-15-2006 06:39 PM

Hm, at the moment the only fake word i can think of off the top of my head is 'bipperty-bopperty'.

bluecuracao 07-15-2006 06:43 PM

Hooray, I'm not the only one who dislikes Jack Johnson.

As for your dilemma, the first thing that came to my mind was "colitas" from Hotel California (which turns out to be a real word after all), until you mentioned Prince...then I had no idea.

Pancake Man 07-15-2006 08:56 PM

Green Day. Why can't they just shut up? Really, why?

footfootfoot 07-16-2006 02:26 PM

Brian Eno unplugged would soun

I love you Brucey!!!!!! Thanks a million.
Wanna know what the weirdest thing about this is? I have been singing The Joker all week cos my Spanish colleague sang it the other day and for some reason the accent cracked me up. Too bad we only knew the "I am a joker , I'm a smoker, I'm a midnight toker" bit.
Oh the relief :D

BigV 07-16-2006 05:17 PM

You scare me xoB. That wasn't even my question, and you scare me. Get out of my head, I wasn't expecting company and I haven't cleaned up. Basta!

xoxoxoBruce 07-16-2006 06:45 PM

I know your deepest, secret fears. Bwahahahahahahaha:evil2:

There was a time in my life when I would have thought a bunch of stoners from Berekely was cool. That has passed about 20 years ago. Get a life guys, seriously.

Steve(version_2.0) 07-17-2006 12:00 PM

Sandi Thom.
"I wish I was a punk rocker (with flowers in my hair)" has to be a contender for the worst song ever written.

mbpark 07-17-2006 02:40 PM

Here's my list:

Vanilla Ice (so bad even Beavis and Butt-head said nothing to his video).
Metallica after St. Anger
Nickelback (the most boring music I have heard in years).
Michael Jackson (no one buys it anyway)
Lil' Jon (I actually do like rap, but this guy says nothing but OK!)
Jack Johnson (because John Mayer was actually funny on Chapelle's Show)
Ashlee Simpson
Jessica Simpson
Puddle Of Mudd

and if we're counting Radio Talk Show Hosts, I'd like to nominate Dr. Laura, Rush Limbaugh, Howard Eskin, and Opie & Anthony.

Sorry to your goodness. The concert that I witnessed was not genius. It was techno-wanking and crap. I stand my by plug pull.:)

rkzenrage 07-17-2006 05:09 PM

The new Queen.
Any CountryPop.

capnhowdy 07-17-2006 05:41 PM

ya... I still can't believe Paul Rogers took that gig......

Tin Man 07-21-2006 04:35 AM

Any boy/girl band. They are the maggots feeding off the festering corpse that is pop music. Bono after he became God. Van Morrison after he started talking to God (not Bono). Any tonsil tart that thinks hurting my ears with sustained high notes is clever and talented. Please eat your own ears or do a Whitney! And any band that asks me if I'm having a great time. Well I was until you asked, dickhead! Did you think I came to the gig to have a bad time? Shut the fuck up and earn the cost of the overpriced ticket and shite merchandise, bottom burp! Any Big Brother, Pop Idol or X Factor git. Your friends were taking the piss when they said you should go on the show, seriously! Also, stop being positive and believing in yourself, you ARE actually TALENTLESS! And take a look in the mirror before you leave the house. Do you really think we want to SEE you on stage (let alone hear you!) AND pay for the privilege? 10 out of 10 for self delusion.

footfootfoot 07-21-2006 04:36 AM

Les Paul?

footfootfoot 07-23-2006 04:17 PM

I'm going to see Les Paul on the 21st of Aug. I thought it would be funny to suggest unplugging the inventor of the electric guitar, nothing against him at all, just my perverse sense of humor...

Elspode 07-26-2006 12:36 PM

[Coneheads] Ah...humor! Ar ar ar ar ar ar.... [/Coneheads]

Where are you seeing Mr. Paul perform? I'm rather terribly envious.

footfootfoot 07-26-2006 12:47 PM

It's a bit of a drive for you...

Elspode 07-26-2006 12:51 PM

This is a jazz supper club...and Les Paul plays there *every Monday night*?!

Geez. Now I'm depressed. How much for dinner and tickets? Couple hundred bucks, I'd be guessing? And another $30 or $40 for parking?

footfootfoot 07-27-2006 10:07 AM

Nah, $40 bucks to see les paul, a two drink minimum ($20. max), and you can park on the street or you can park under lincoln center, about ten blocks away (1/2 mile) for 10 or 20 bucks. But yeah, you and the missus will knock the stuffing out of a couple of C notes when it's all over.

Maybe I'll sneak my ipod in with a mic...

My brother has recorded gigs (with permission) with a DAT "walkman" and an AKG stereo mic, with very good results - depending on mic placement.
