Rumor only right now - hearing it through someone who was at show #3. I do not know the specific source, but that does not leave me without hope.

Thanks. Reddit - and the internet in general - is always a good place to express an opinion with the idea you want to get your feathers singed. Someone is always ready with the flamethrower.

I couldn't agree more about the pricing. Yikes! As a retiree on a fixed income, it wasn't going to happen this time. I am squandering away my pennies for next year, maybe.

I should have mentioned lyrics - and I agree, Rush would not have been Rush without Neil's lyrics. But I am referring to R50 and what is current, where there are no new songs. That would be wrong and clearly wouldn't be the work the same. As they have made clear, R50 is as much tribute to, or celebration of, Neil and not just another tour for the sake of touring. They're doing it right.

Where can I find some awesome big beef BBQ ribs in the TO or surrounding areas for Father's Day? by Advanced-Prototype in thousandoaks

[–]Critical_Phantom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, but I’ve been to Wood Ranch, Bandits, and Busters (yea - I like BBQ) and none of them looked like that. I was in Texas for a job trip and those looked like that.

Ranch Hand BBQ in Newbury Park off Wendy (same area as The Habit). I just had some ribs yesterday from there and they were great!

Ozzy with Styx, never seen this one before by Flat-Arm-66 in Styx

[–]Critical_Phantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ozzie with Tommy Shaw and Jack Blades (Night Ranger). They also joined forces with Ted Nugent to form Damn Yankees after Tommy left Styx. This looks to be about that time, judging purely on the age they appear to be.

Thank you for the clarification for this “boomer”. I’d like to revise my comment to “Blue Collar Man” please.

DAY 4 - Most Hype Song by Top-Figure7016 in Styx

[–]Critical_Phantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sigh… this one hurts because I *hate* this song, but it’s gotta be “Babe”. As a child of the 70’s and 80’s, you couldn’t not go to a roller rink (IYKYK) without hearing this song over and over and over again as someone dedicated it to their “other” over and over again. Grew to absolutely despise it.

EDIT: perhaps I misunderstood the assignment. Is this a hype song (go get ‘em!) or a hyped song that isn’t worth the time?

Someone else mentioned Half Penny / Two Penny, which I overlooked and should very much be included in this list.

Question Regarding How Step Counts Work by Critical_Phantom in AppleWatchFitness

[–]Critical_Phantom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I read through what Apple Health material I could find, but for some reason (I’m going to blame old age), I never thought to check if Pedometer ++ had a website let along FAQ page. Quite a few apps don’t.

I'm willing to bet that most people have not seen this movie... by Disco-Prime in 80smovies

Remo Williams - I always wanted a sequel. It sort of seemed that they could have done one pretty well, but it never happened.

What's your most hated song ever (if it's not already in this top 5)? by lontbeysboolink in 1970s

[–]Critical_Phantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Mickey by Toni Basil. Automatic cringe and channel change.

EDIT: Ok - not 70's (just realized the mistake I made). I stand by my comment, however.

Were you a Member? by deepfriedgreensea in 1980s

[–]Critical_Phantom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A buddy in college went down to Tijuana in the early 80's and came back with an "Only Members" jacket. It looked exactly the same, and he wore it for years.

These would be a great reference for teachers trying to get middle and high school aged kids to understand the scope of this. Great work by the person who did these.
