  1. One of Bob's initially unreleased gems: Blind Willie McTell Bob Dylan Seen the arrow on the doorpost Saying, "This land is condemned All the way from New Orleans To Jerusalem." I traveled through East Texas Where many martyrs fell And I know no one can sing the blues Like Blind Willie McTell Well, I heard the hoot owl singing As they were taking down the tents The stars above the barren trees Were his only audience Them charcoal gypsy maidens Can strut their feathers well But nobody can sing the blues Like Blind Willie McTell See them big plantations burning Hear the cracking of the whips Smell that sweet magnolia blooming (And) see the ghosts of slavery ships I can hear them tribes a-moaning (I can) hear the undertaker's bell (Yeah), nobody can sing the blues Like Blind Willie McTell There's a woman by the river With some fine young handsome man He's dressed up like a squire Bootlegged whiskey in his hand There's a chain gang on the highway I can hear them rebels yell And I know no one can sing the blues Like Blind Willie McTell Well, God is in heaven And we all want what's his But power and greed and corruptible seed Seem to be all that there is I'm gazing out the window Of the St. James Hotel And I know no one can sing the blues Like Blind Willie McTell
  2. Becomes first musician to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/14/arts/music/bob-dylan-nobel-prize-literature.html?_r=0
  3. Bills need to do this on the PA this week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voSzc2vgOLA
  4. A lesson that I learned during the Super Bowl years: enjoy a win without nitpicking the things that weren't perfect. So, I won't acknowledge the OP's question. Bring on the niners.
  5. Anthony Lynn. When it's third or fourth and 1 yard to go there only two plays to call. A QB sneak or direct hand-off to the fullback - they are the only two calls that work 70% of the time or better.. For the second week in a row Lynn calls Felton's number in that spot and the Bills get a crucial first down. Roman would have had Tyrod hand-off to a 7-yards deep Shady or throw a 49-yard fade.
  6. I would think the only opinion that should hold any weight is that of Anthony Lynn.
  7. Unreal... (For some reason my work computer won't let me post the video directly, hopefully one of you can get it posted.)
  8. He had the Rangers at 68 pts before the Vesey signing.
  9. I was at that Motley Crue show, but left after Alice Cooper's opening act ( he was great). Glad I didn't stay, everyone said the Crue just totally mailed it in.
  10. Love it when Practice Squad members create a post to say that they're "calling it now" that the team will miss out on breaking the playoff streak in the most heinous way possible. So glad to have your negative outlook here (sarcasm on)
  11. I'm sure this is already posted, but if so, it deserves a second bump. Classic! http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/look-ben-affleck-finds-out-patriots-are-losing-to-bills-has-hilarious-reaction/
  12. Best: A late 80s show at Melody Fair featuring Warren Zevon opening for Eddie Money. Both guys played their asses off and I believe that Money did it three sheets to the wind. (Honorable mention to the Roger Waters "Wall" tour and any of the handful of Avett Brothers shows I've seen). Worst: Hands down, Morrissey at the Rapids Theater in Niagara Falls. I took my girlfriend at the time, though I had never heard of any of his music. The lowlight (among many) was when a series of animals being killed in slaughterhouses played behind him for 15 minutes while he screamed, "Meat is murder."
  13. Has to be the greatest muse of all time, don't you think? http://mentalfloss.com/article/78851/layla-real-life-10-songs-written-about-pattie-boyd?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Partner&utm_campaign=FBK
  14. They just said that people may need to do the iOS update.
  15. In Miami, South Beach wants to spend a day at Kiko to get away from it all.
  16. If that walking doesn't make your pants dance, check your pulse, Tom.
  17. Wow, what a game by Derek Grant. Wait, what? Who in the heck is Derek Grant?
  18. Now this is a woman dancing that I cannot take my eyes off.
  19. I hope our players are aware of this rule and how to exploit it. http://nflnewsandupdates.com/2016/09/26/packers-kick-returner-ty-montgomery-exploits-loophole-in-nfl-rulebook-to-his-advantage-video/
  20. Team NA eliminated. I guess Jack will be there for the start of camp this weekend.
  21. I like them. Thanks for the kind words. Not sure why only the first video linked properly, so I added the artist and title of each. Watch them while you can, Bob is notorious for having all copyrighted material removed from YouTube.
  22. Bob Dylan is the greatest songwriter in the history of the world. (Don't flame this into a debate, if you disagree start your own damn thread for your favorite). Many artists have covered Bob. Here are my Top 10 in descending order: 10) 9) Manfred Mann - Mighty Quinn 8) Johnny Winter- Highway 61 Revisited 7) Eddie Vedder - Masters of War 6) Eric Clapton - Don't Think Twice It's Alright 5) Jeff Buckley - Mama You've Been On My Mind 4) Them - It's All Over Now Baby Blue http://youtube.com/watch?v=zWxhoeERMZU 3) Adele - Make You Feel My Love 2) Guns and Roses - Knockin' On Heaven!s Door 1) Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower And a bonus... The Band - I Shall Be Released http://youtube.com/watch?v=_-XwB8exoTE
