  1. Don't buy anything too cheap. My mom bought me a "First Act" guitar when I was a teenager, and I never learned how to play until someone gifted me their old Epiphone. Yamaha, Ibenez, are both good beginner guitars, and you won't be breaking the bank if you decide it isn't for you after a few months. But if you're not planning on spending at least $100-150, don't bother. Also, I learned the hard way, invest in a good case.
  2. I wandered so aimless life filed with sin I wouldn't let my dear savior in Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night Praise the lord I saw the light. I saw the light I saw the light No more darkness no more night Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight Praise the lord I saw the light.
  3. Summer loving had me a blast Summer loving happened so fast I met a girl crazy for me Met a boy cute as can be Summer days drifting away to oh oh the summer nights Tell me more, tell me more Did you get very far Tell me more, tell me more Like does he have a car
  4. Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear And it shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe And he keeps it, ah, out of sight Ya know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babe So there's never, never a trace of red Now on the sidewalk, huh, huh, whoo sunny morning, un huh Lies a body just oozin' life, eek And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner Could that someone be Mack the Knife?
  5. You choke down all your anger Forget your only son You pray to statues when you sober up for fun Your anger don't impress me The world slapped in your face It always rains like hell on the loser's day parade You see, you'd love to run home, but you know you ain't got one Cause you're living in a world that you're best forgotten, around here When you're thinking you're a joke and nobody's going to listen To the one small point I know they've been missing around here Broadway's dark tonight A little bit weaker than you used to be Broadway's dark tonight See the young man sitting in the old man's bar Waiting for his turn to die
  6. Apparently, the Quarrymen are still technically together. A few of the other guys got back together and have been playing on and off since the mid 90s, changing out members. But technically can trace their lineage back to John Paul and George.
  7. Finally made the plane into Paris Honeymooning down by the Seine Peter Brown call to say You can make it O.K. You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain Christ you know it ain't easy You know how hard it can be The way things are going They're going to crucify me
  8. If anybody in the town would know that Rooster never actually died though, it'd be Nick.
  9. Yep. I recall beating Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, and then losing to a 2-12 Raiders the next week.
  10. There's a fly in the window A dog in the yard And a year since I saw you There's a trunk in the corner I keep all my letters My bills and demands I keep too Well I can't help thinking About the times You were a wife of mine You aimed to please me Cooked black-eyed peas-me Made elderberry wine Drunk all the timeFeeling fine on elderberry wineThose were the daysWe'd lay in the hazeForget depressive timesHow can I ever get it togetherWithout a wife in lineTo pick the crop and get me hotOn elderberry wine
  11. No charges have actually been filed, although more accusations are coming out. They purposely left his death open ended without finding a body so that he could potentially return. I'm hopeful, but know it's most likely not gonna happen. I don't think it was Mary though, because he wouldn't have asked "What the f*** are you doing here" since they lived together.
  12. About five years after the Beatles breakup, John and Paul had made peace and started rebuilding their friendship, even though there was no professional relationship anymore. There's a recording of John, Paul, Harry Nilson, Bobby Keys (sax player for the stones), and Stevie ***** Wonder having a 2 am cocaine fueled jam session. Sounds like it'd be the greatest thing ever recorded. Unfortunately, it was just them screwing around in a studio and didn't come out to much.
  13. Paraphrasing here, but I read an interview with Plant where he basically said The Eagles still hated each other when the got back together. They didn't need the money, but they were bored. He gets all the money he needs from his LZ royalties, and he enjoys his side projects venturing into different genres.
  14. **SPOILER** Anybody watch the Ranch's most recent season? Wasn't as funny, and was more dramatic. But I still enjoyed it. Who do you think shot Nick? I'm hoping it was Rooster, but I know they wouldn't take Danny Masterson back.
  15. Also, a Van Halen tour with Michael Anthony on bass and backing vocal would be cool. And since we're talking pipe dreams anyway, both DLR and Sammy on the tour.
  16. It isn't a terrible song. But not worth the effort.
  17. The few people who legitimately still hold to the Paul is Dead theory (you find some strange people on the internet), claim that Faul (Paul's replacement) was so adamant about Maxwell's Silver Hammer because it was written as a clue to the world that they're just killing people off like it's no big deal.
  18. Blue moon you saw me standing alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for You heard me saying a prayer for Someone I really could care for
  19. Well I followed her, to the station With a suitcase in my hand Yeah, I followed her to the station With a suitcase in my hand Whoa, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell When all your love's in vain All My Love's In Vain.
  20. I've never met Jerry, but I know his mother in law and a few other of his family members. They were telling me the story of watching a game with him once during our bye week. Walt Coleman announced roughing the passer on "Number 55, I mean 42" and they believe he was just so used to calling penalties on Jerry, that he called out his number out of habit.
  21. They're really rockin Boston In Pittsburgh, P. A. Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay All over St. Louis Way down in New Orleans All the Cats wanna dance with Sweet Little Sixteen
  22. I go to see the Fab Four every year. Probably the best tribute I've ever seen. @Gugny can attest. We both had the same review. They sound excellent, but I would have liked a longer show, and a little more of the B-Sides. But I finally got one of my wishes this year, and they didn't play YS. The only time I really care if I hear it again, is if I go see Ringo live, and that's just so I can say I've heard it.
  23. The way he screwed them at the R&R Hall of Fame, I wouldn't blame them for not wanting to get back together. I met them briefly after one of their Revisited shows once, and they were genuinely some of the nicest musicians I've ever met. I read a book about Creedence. The author basically just wrote the facts, and anything that was disputable, he used their own words from interviews he'd compiled. They shared a quote from John talking about how he wrote Down on the Corner by himself, but convinced the rest of the band that they helped write it. I was waiting for them to refute the claim and say they actually did help write it. Nope. Both of their statements boiled down to "Yeah. John wrote that song. It was a great song. We had nothing to do with it." He has such a big ego it's ridiculous. I saw an interview recently where he said they broke up because he was so much more famous than the rest of the band. People would swarm him for autographs, and the rest of the band was jealous. I call BS on that. They were a band that was all about the music. So it wasn't like he was Mick Jagger, one of the Beatles or Monkees, etc. Anybody who recognized him back then most likely would have recognized, or at least deduced who the rest of the band was. He's such an a-hole, but makes great music. I understand the unlikeliness of it happening, but I remain hopeful that they put their differences aside for one final tour, even if it is just because they see the dollar signs.
  24. Please don't ruin the good wholesome name of John Denver.
  25. Apparently Stu Cook and Doug Clifford have put their differences aside with Fogerty to make business decisions together regarding archive footage/audio. They're also breaking up with Creedence Clearwater Revisited once their previously scheduled tour obligations are done. Obviously without Tom we'll never have a true reunion, but 3/4 would be pretty awesome.
