Donita!

Missed by SECONDS!!! Just a slip of the mouse away. . . .

Figures I’d post triple poll results just in time to be EPU’d, LOL.

Hey Donita!

Hoowwwwwwwwdeeeeeee! Donita will be delayed by sound check this evening, but she expects to be here in half an hour or so. She does have some fine road music this week in the playlist, turn up the speakers and kick back in comments!

Hi fini!

Finifinito! How ya doing?

Elliott @ 7

Hi fini!

Hi Elliot! Whats the buzz? Tellmehwtasahappenin?

Donita!

That Junior Brown is a h00t! Saw him as the opening act for a blues show one time in CT (he opened for Buddy Guy, Koko Taylor and John Mayall). Confused most folks but made perfect sense to me. Someone knew they play blues in Austin and that Junior Brown was from Austin, therefore he played the blues and should open. /s

May I make a small suggestion on food? Make a special stop at a grocery store. Pick up some stuff like the dole/del monte fruit cups, apple sauce and stuff. Maybe some veggie or fresh fruit trays as well. Mainly things that you can grab quick but don’t require refrig and are almost healthful.

But I can’t do anything ’bout the Hinkley situations. :}(

Please stay on-topic in Donita’s thread, thanks.

it’s the Big Chill here!

Oh boy, I love that Travelin’ Band song.
Hi Donita, Fini, everyone!

Ha! I was youtubing your band today, Donita, to see if there was anything up from the tour. I liked that weird little clip of you and Alan the Italian on the guitar show.

Once about 20 years back, while driving from Santa Cruz to Palo Alto, a friend and I decided that Iggy Pop’s “Fun Time” (the live TV Eye version with Bowie on organ) was our favorite highway song.

Travel safely, and enjoy the rest of that tour!

I think the guys in that video clip were very language impaired. Very limited vocabulary, but that did not prevent them from using the few words they knew over and over again.

I saw an RV movie last summer (spring)? with Robin Williams (?) in it that was pretty amusing, however. The RV family met another family who were a family band, on the road, which led to some amusing scenes.

Bob in HI

Donita,
I love you! Hope your shows are as great as the one I saw in Chi-Town!
Your big sis, jackie

Music is fine. Pop music is low on my list of favorites and it has nothing to do with the urgent needs of the country at this moment.

No offense to Ms Sparks, but frankly it’s irrelevant in my opinion. Enjoy.

Of course. Because we all know seriously discussing the urgent needs of the country all the time every second of every day has EVERYTHING to do with relevancy.

Ever heard of unclenching dude? It’s relax time, Friday evening. Music to unclench with after the week everyone’s had is something more than a few people enjoy around here. Chill out, grab a drink and if you don’t like the tunes, you are free to offer up whatever you listen to.

Gotta admit, this is one of the first “Spins” where I’ve been familiar with most of the songs. And I think the Deep Purple just played like a 33 at 45…

There aren’t enough votes to be meaningful yet, but I think the middle question is most interesting, with Kucinich tying Edwards.

Maybe a sliding tax on fast food which goes up the more unhealthy the food is for example if your big mac has 100% of your daily fat the price goes up 100% the same should happen with salt.
Adding 100% of your daily serving of vitamins, minerals etc to food reduces the tax 5% per vitamin, mineral etc but if the food was grown organicly then the tax goes down 30%.
Just think of the reduced healthcare costs!

to be honest, I’d prefer that effort and money spent on making sure the food we get is safe. Our food supply is obviously not monitored as well as it could be.

Hey fini,
can you cue up one more tune for us?

Hugh, your list is getting famous…..

Off topic but I’m desperate

Could someone please point me to a web site detailing Bush’s abuse’s of power. I am very familiar with the machinations of this administration but am fighting with conservatives that are starting in earnest their attack on Hillary Clinton and others.

I really don’t have the time to sit and detail every step toward the fascist state we now find ourselves in taken by this administration.

To better serve the short attention span of Republicans if I could find a bullet list that would be perfect.

I have perused many of the usual Democratic sites as well as others but none seem comprehensive enough.

I really really would appreciate any help.

Thanks

OK, here is a perfect example of the things I saw/heard in the 80s that made me go HUH?!WHA?!? This song has been heard a million times in clubs and decent radio, but its this video with the imperfections and audio baubles and live stuff going on that truly influenced me. I blame New Order, The Terminator, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails and Blade Runner for turning me into the oddball I am today musically.

Does anyone remember the Joy of Cooking? Famous about the same time as Melanie. Can’t find a YouTube…

This is actually from a video they did in 1984 that had a UK release only. I had a friend who moved here in 1985 whose dad was in the military and was based in England who moved his family to Indianapolis where he was from after he retired. My friend John had a whole collection of PAL format videotapes and a PAL format VCR and TV that we would watch all these great videos I had no idea existed. Sex Pistols, Depeche Mode, Pink Floyd material never seen here, Yes, and a bunch of one hit wonders he recorded off the telly. I wish I knew where John was these days, he had great taste in tunes.

I tried to find Lonesome LA Cowboy by New Riders of the Purple Sage. Unfortunately, the best I culd do was the lyrics:
chorus
I’m just lonesome L.A. cowboy
Hanging out, and hanging on
To your window ledge, callin’ your name
From midnight until dawn
I been smoking dope, snorting coke
Trying to write a song
Forgettin’ everything I know
Till the next line comes along
Forgetting everything I know
Till the next line comes along

So many pretty people in this city, and I swear
Some of them are girls
I meet ‘em down at Barney’s Beanery
In their platform shoes and spit curls
I buy ‘em drinks, we stoke our hopes
And try to make it one more night
When I’m left alone at last
I feel like I’ll die from crying

[chorus]

I know Kris and Rita and Marty Mull (note 1)
Are meeting at the Troubadour
We’ll get it on with the “Joy Of Cooking”
While the crowd calls out for more
Around six o’clock this morning
I’ll be gettin’ kind of slow
When all the shows are over, honey, tell me
Where do you think I go?

[chorus]

Till the next line comes along

Delicious, unique break from all of that highway fast food — right here.

Yeah, I’ve got old Joy of Cooking vinyls — ripped them off of WCHL/Chapel Hill back when AM stations stilled played music.

Thanks for the video,it had me in tears I was laughing so hard.
