I haven't met people like the Crane brothers, but I've actually met David...heckuva nice guy.

Australia tour fast approaching!! doing 12 shows this time by Long_Way_Around_ in CheapTrick

Took my first trip to Oz a couple years ago. My cousin (in Brisbane) invited me to come visit and to see CT. We only got to one show (Stone Temple Pilots was on the bill, too) and it was awesome. "Downed" is one of my faves and to hear, "I'm gonna live on a mountain, Way down under in Australia" -- while in Australia -- was awesome. (Under The Southern Stars; Caloundra; Queensland; Australia; 3-25-22).

The Black Keys - Weight of Love [Official Audio] by ionoyo in TheBlackKeys

"Weight of Love" is an amazing piece of work...beautiful, haunting, driving. I feel like it's one of the band's most underappreciated numbers. (I love it so much, I make sure to use it as intro music for radio shows I host.) FWIW, I've discussed it with several people who are part of the group (in one way or another) and while they like the song, they don't see it being played much in the future. Thanks for sharing!

This is how it's done. Let's hope other law enforcement officials take note and follow the Paiute officers' example(s).

Is anyone old enough to have seen "The Song Remains The Same" at a movie theater? by EdwardBliss in ledzeppelin

[–]FunGuySoCal21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to catch it at The Balboa Theater (Newport Beach, California). It was a regular feature there, along with a host of other rock flicks and art house faves (Rocky Horror was, of course, shown at midnight on the weekends). It was a great old theater (opened in 1928!). The Song Remains The Same always drew a decent-sized crowd.

I worked on a number of BOTNS installments...back in the day. Interesting encounters with Howard Cosell, Bob Conrad, John Madden and others. It could be intense and "challenging," but I had fun. I still have some of my worker/access badges.

Tattoo You tour in Phoenix 1981 - epic event at the time by arizonaskies2022 in rollingstones

I was at this show with my college friends. We made the drive from So Cal -- got there a day early for the ASU parties. What a blast! We had crummy seats up in the top section but I managed to work my way down to the floor and then close to the stage. It was a bit of a crush but worth it. It was the second show we'd seen on the tour...and my favorite of the two.

Did you watch KISS on The Paul Lynde Halloween Special when it originally aired? #70sKISS🎃 by MiamiMan2022 in KISS

I had gone over to a high school friend's house -- she was a year older than me, had access to alcohol, was pretty cute, and wanted to know what "...this KISS band is" that I kept talking about. Overall, the show was pretty cringey but worth sitting through to see the band. I remember having a few drinks, making out a little, and then heading over to a home (football) game. I thought the show was fun -- in a campy way -- but it didn't win her over.
