  1. I grew up in San Jose. A's, Warriors, Sharks and Raiders are my teams.
  2. Here is a good song and a hat option for you.
  3. My cousin turned me on to The White Album in the summer of '79. We used to listen to Rev #9 first sitting at one speaker and then the other to hear the different stuff from each speaker. I can't stand it. Used to think it was cool, but now I'm older and wiser and it's nothing more than LSD fueled sh!t.
  4. Dig Tool, they always do stuff that after one listen will get skipped. Haven't heard it, but I'm gonna download it soon and check it out. They came and now with legal scalping and being allowed to sell your tickets back online for whatever price you want, tix were going for $400, I gave a big F U to that noise.
  5. If you would have gotten a Custom Martin, unless ordering a slope shoulder shaped one, that they make would be nothing like a J-45, except maybe the body shape.
  6. Pepper is always a great choice. The opening chords to Getting Better slap you right in the face. Who else in rock was doing anything like She's Leaving Home. The Moody Blues did interesting stuff. But not like The Fab 4.
  7. I know I saw Macca a few years back and Blackbird musically was great but Pauls voice was not there. He can still do the rockers. but on ballads its not that great. I'm real about stuff. I just don't salivate over everything my idols do. If its cr@p I will say so. Like almost every song the lads let Ringo sing. It was un-nessesary when you had a singer like Paul in the group who can almost do it al by himself. Like I said I'm and electrician and if I came to your house to do work and it was substandard I would expect you to say as much. Same for music. Doesn't matter who he is, if its not good, its not good. Sorry bout that. What was his last good album? For me Blood On The Tracks. After that meeh.
  8. Yep you are absolutely right. Obviously your not a golfer.
  9. If you have read my posts don't hate him and have seen him live 3 times. I said his voice is blown and can't sing anymore. If you like his current vocal stylings good on ya. He is a pro and his bands are always tight. I'm sorry you elders refuse to admit his voice is not what it once was. Yes he still tours cause he must still enjoy it and makes records cause he is a musician and that is what they do. I'm an electrician. I don't weld cause it's not what I get paid to do and second I don't know how to do it.
  10. Get Zoot Allures stitched on it instead of Steve.
  11. I've never heard Love. I know people say they did a real good job with it. I listened to The White Album about 50 times last year, Pepper about 30 and Road about 15. If you haven't heard the 50th anniversary editions, I think they are fantastic and don't listen to the original mixes of those 3 much since the new ones give me a b0ner.
  12. I just have few baseball hats I wear now and again. Nothing cool or interesting. Mostly the NFL, NHL, college, and other teams I like. I did get a bad@ss pair of cowboy boots when I was in Austin several years ago. Classic black with cool stitching made by I believe the Heritage boot company.
  13. Saw him when he toured with the Grateful Dead and once in '07 or '08 and when he did the Minor League stadium tour with Wille and Mellencamp. When we saw him at Bull Durham park my wife asked me what the hell is he saying? I replied I think he is introducing the band. I wont see him ever again.
  14. I think I got Abbey Road, Pepper then Let It Be after that I can't remember. Stoney druggy Beatles are my favorite. Solo stuff is cool but they needed each other to push each other and try to one up each other on the next song.
  15. WTF is he saying? I know the song well. Mumble mumble, a word I understand, mumble. I love Bob I really do but he really can't sing anymore. I'm sorry if you think he can.
  16. In the 60s and 70s you understand him but not now.
  17. Pepper is hard to deny. There is nothing like it. It wasn't what normal rock or pop or whatever the flavor or the day was. They were doing it then The Stones tried to emulate it 2 months later. I had Let It Be on 8 Track. Love all their stuff but Rubber Soul and beyond is the changing of the guard for them. The stars alined for them. They had it all, a great producer, world class studio, two of the best song writters on the planet ect.
  18. Really? Fantastic eh? I'm not buying it. Love Bob have tons of his stuff, but nope. You cant tell what the hell he's singing at all.
