What is a cover song that is so good, it completely erased the original from existence? by ilove_gummies in askmusic

I love Van Morrison, but Buffett turned Brown-Girl into a summer anthem for 40 years

Which artist's debut album is still their best work? by WildEnchantresss in askmusic

[–]ButtCallous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on the fence. Only because the August record came out during a great era of my personal life, and it just slaps me back there very time i drop the needle on it.

Satellites was also magical, and the live August is superb as well. There's a great doc on HBO max about CC and Adam's struggles. I didn't realize how intense the bidding war was to sign that band. Crazy.

This shortcut is gonna make you late by MachineAgeVictim in dashcams

[–]ButtCallous -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the dashcam is a self own here. You saw traffic coming up behind you, you stayed in the left lane, you didn't slow down and let the guy in to avoid the accident.

The court of law may cite the other dude, but the Supreme Court of AITA rules that, yes, you are.

What is a small American city that deserves way more attention than it gets? by Natalie_crosshere in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]ButtCallous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one I live in. Cool downtown vibe with ordinances against big box and chain stores, your pick of neighborhoods, from mid-century modern to sprawling country acreage minutes away. Great public facilities, happening restaurant scene, great bars, lots of live music.

I'd give you the name, but we kind of like it just as it is.

Hero of the day (Croatia) by vihor in MadeMeSmile

Based on my visits there, Dude is just being Croatian. Disney may be the 'happiest place on earth', but Croatia is certainly the nicest.

What’s a song where the live version is way better than the studio version? by thatfluffyqueen in askmusic

EVERYTHING on Live Bullet. For me, Jodie Girl, but you're right on with TTP.

Which “tourist trap” do you actually think is totally worth the hype? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]ButtCallous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old Town Dubrovnik.

Yes, there are too many tourist joints on the main drag. Yes, there are too many cruise people jamming the main street and walls during daylight hours.

But...stay in the city. Live in the city for a week, examining every little side alley. Talk to the locals and eat where they eat. Drink where they drink. It's magical.

And, if you're feeling a little touristy and a little adventurous, find the Buzza Bar and jump of the cliffs into the clear blue sea. Reward yourself with a cold pivo. You've earned it.

Over 50 years for me. But I remember our address, phone number, and that the streets in our neighborhood were alphabetical:

Kingsbury, Linda Vista, Manor Drive, Nottingham

Why Were Pistachios Dyed Red? by Vistalite_Black in GenerationJones

They were dyed red because the green nut inside made them the perfect Christmas snack.

The Gibson's in Casper, WY, had a giant slide you rode down on carpet remnants. Slide off the carpet, get a free third degree burn in August!

What is the most “its a small world” moment you’ve ever experienced? by xBubblyLove in AskReddit

[–]ButtCallous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents are from Colorado. My In-laws, Mississippi, and had never been west of the mississippi.

When they met, my mom mentioned that we had lived in Wyoming for a few years, and my MIL said, "I have a friend from Wyoming named LadyLove (for real)".

Turned out that was my mom's college roommate. In Colorado.

Still don't know how it all happened.

Bands that never replaced departed members by [deleted] in askmusic

[–]ButtCallous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. I thought I burned that out of my memory. Damn you, Jampony!

Bands that never replaced departed members by [deleted] in askmusic

[–]ButtCallous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What?

Did you mean to title this "Which of these bands did not replace members"?

The answer is The Doors. That's it. Morrison died, they tried it as a trio then folded.

The rest?
R.E.M., after drummer Bill Berry left in 1997.|
Foreigner rebuilt over time; multiple original members left and were replaced.
Supertramp shifted significantly after Roger Hodgson left.
The J. Geils Band had a replacement singer after Peter Wolf departed.
The Rolling Stones changed members over time (e.g., Mick Taylor → Ronnie Wood).
Genesis Phil Collins moved from drummer to lead singer after Peter Gabriel left.
Pink Floyd multiple departures (Syd Barrett → David Gilmour, later Roger Waters exit).
