    Dan Fogelberg has died

    Alright Mr. Jay Jay. You just sent me a private message that you would not allow me to respond to, accusing me of "praying to the Beatles". You told me all sorts of stuff bragging about your mission trips and whatever, and without asking me anything about my personal life, you just start...

    Madonna and Mellencamp in the Rock Hall...???

    Oh well...I have my own rock and roll hall of fame in my mind, and it only inducts worthy artists.

    Dan Fogelberg has died

    If that's how you feel, then I'm quite sure I'll meet you there. I tell you what...you bring a refrigerator and some good food and cold drinks, and I'll bring an air conditioner, a stereo, and a lot of good CDs.

    xmess, profit or pest?

    I vote that we do the merciful thing and inform Dick Cheney that he's an Islamofascist and a threat to national security...

    Dan Fogelberg has died

    As for xmess' comments, I just want to say, as Bruce Cockburn once said in concert..."I'm a Christian, but I'm not one of them."

    Madonna and Mellencamp in the Rock Hall...???

    It would be interesting if that new prog band ended up being Akron/Family...but I'm not sure if they're quite prog enough.

    Madonna and Mellencamp in the Rock Hall...???

    Yeah, eccentric, we agree again. That's twice in a day (see serious discussion and debates)...

    Madonna and Mellencamp in the Rock Hall...???

    Heck, Martha, at this rate, you and I will get in there in the next year or two!

    Madonna and Mellencamp in the Rock Hall...???

    OK, I know that very few of us around here take the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame very seriously...but when I heard tonight that Madonna's going in, that really took the cake. Now, I'm not really an anti-Madonna person like a lot of folks. I actually have enjoyed a fair amount of her music, and...

    Eagles - Long Road out of Eden

    Re: Long Road Out Of Eden I haven't bought it yet, but recently I was visiting my older brother who has it. He really preferred the second CD. I like both. What you basically get is classic Eagles, with a little more emphasis on their older country-rock style on the first CD and something of...

    Hendrix live at Monterey 1967

    Re: Hendrix at Monterey OK, I guess we understand each other now. I think I can agree with you that it's been moving in the direction of an exclusively youth-oriented market for a long time. Once MTV had been on for a few years, it did really begin to be youth-obsessed all over again (as...

    Hendrix live at Monterey 1967

    Re: Hendrix at Monterey Baloney. If that were entirely true, then Peter Gabriel, Sting, U2, and Paul Simon couldn't have had hit singles in the 80s. A lot of the music of that time was about very adult concerns, and teenage angst or rebellion has never been the sum total of pop music...

    The World According to David Brooks

    To me, '67 was the year that music began to be marketed to young adults as opposed to either teenagers or their parents. The album rock that began developing in earnest that year pretty much created a market that I suppose would later be known as the "college radio" crowd. A whole new...

    The World According to David Brooks

    The technology isn't the problem. In fact, it may become part of the solution. On the other hand, there is something greatly missing in most of even the best independent music I'm hearing these days. Sometimes I can put my finger on it and sometimes I can't. But at least I have found one...
