Just thinking you might have ended up with an interest in the Dots by knowing the same people I did. They went to high school in Richardson, class of '97. My one ex-boyfriend would have given anything for Ka-Spel's hot rank breath on him.

Probably not. I didn't know anyone at the time that would have graduated highschool after ohhh about 1994.

The fella that introducted me to them in the late 80's moved to South FTW from NYC. However... many years later I met my ex-husband and his friends who were about 7-10 years older... there might have been one or two from North Dallas, but would all have been out of Highschool since the mid to late 80's.

Oh, oh oh, my ears are a light

Lung nearly gave indeed

Grocery store that delivers, with 2 locations actually... I don't see their hours though....

edit: there it is, 9am-3am.

I heard Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting and realized I didn't know what some of the lyrics actually were, despite singing along with it all these years.

You might be surprised to learn that this stanza

Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!"

does not actually end with "I might sneak a little drink and shout out "LEMONADE!"

What a goofball.

Pete Zicato · 09-29-2011, 03:29 PM

That's funny. I always heard it as:

Took a little drink and shout out, "She's a lay!"

I just listened to it again. The vocals are pushed back in the mix so that doesn't help. But he definitely doesn't use a long 'e' in 'me'. He pronounces it more like the month of May.

Trilby · 09-29-2011, 04:44 PM

I always heard ...shout out JUBILEE!

infinite monkey · 09-29-2011, 05:49 PM

Hahahahhaha! That's awesome. Not just me, Pete and Bri too. Anyone else hear that line uniquely?

Oh, and there was a bar in town years ago called the Getaway. It was real meat-marketish. My brother and his buddies called it the Get a Lay.

Now it's Illusions. I have dubbed it "Delusions." As far as I know, it's still real meat-marketish.
