So much like a HORRIBLE Poker "Tell" his deeply embedded within his soul Mean Streak gives him away....

Geezer rock, why am I not surprised a geek like you loves it



Damn... these guys still got it. Thanks for the clip MD!

As Gamblers we can uniquely appreciate the Odds that they'd all still be going. If they'd given us a Line in The '70's that Neil & Crazy Horse, The Stones, Ozzy & Black Sabbath and the plethora of others too numerous to mention would still be Laying It Down here in...what the #%&$ is it anyway? 2015??!!?? and the latter part of that?

Frickin' AMAZING. I am at a Loss to explain this longevity. It feels like a bunch of miracles. Every time I try to complain about being old the fact these guys and so many others are out there HITTING is at 70 years old and others near to that makes me say "Oh Never Mind" :):).

Heres some interesting stuff:

Termites will eat wood two times faster when listening to heavy metal.

Bruce Springsteen was once an opening act for Anne Murray.

The estate of Michael Jackson owns the rights to the South Carolina State anthem.

Start playing Pink Floyd's "The Dark Side Of The Moon" at the precise moment the MGM lion roars for the second time in the movie "The Wizard Of Oz" and the CD is perfectly synchronized with the movie.

Pink Floyd is named after Pink Anderson and Floyd Council (two Bluesmen).

Lynyrd Skynyrd is named after a high school teacher named Leonard Skinner who had suspended several students for having long hair.

Lynyrd Skynyrd's Ronnie Van Zant is buried with a Neil Young t-shirt, the same he uses on his last cd cover. The admiration between these two musicians was mutual: Young said he'd rather play "Sweet Home Alabama" than "Southern Man" (his own southern anthem).


"Layla" was written by Eric Clapton to steal George Harrison's wife, Patty Boyd. Layla was the nickname Eric had given her.
The guitar solo in The Beatle's "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is played by Clapton.


Black Sabbath's guitarist, Tony Iommi, lost part of two fingers in an accident, and it seemed the band was over. However, he managed to continue playing using a device which made his two stump fingers "longer", and tuning the guitar three steps down in order to loosen the strings and bend them more easily. His first song with his new "style" was "Iron Man".


During the last years that Elvis Presley performed live, he opened his shows with "The Theme From 2001". When asked about it, Presley said that he felt the number 2001 had a special significance in his life that he couldn't explain. Elvis died August, 16, 1977, which numerically is 8-16-1977. When these numbers are added up, they equal 2001.

If this is true, this is disturbing news for all
