I think any musician that can write stuff like "Living on a Prayer" deserves recognition. If a song like that starts playing in a crowded pub, every fucker in the place starts singing along with a big grin on their face, and I don't want to sound like a queer or nothin', but there's something powerful about that.
"Don't be down, now! Maybe we can find some AIDS in the forest!"
Time, bubbling under, I will rise, I will train
Then I can only sing of the true nature of things
and I'll feel the pain I won't feel again
and I will rise to the other side where I'll stay, and I'll stand, tall as Centrepoint
Justice, Be my Drug

I agree completely. I've actually been crankin "edge of a broken Heart", recorded in a mobile recording studio on a night saw them back in '86, and their cover of Neil Young's "rockin in a free world", which is just awesome.
"Ladies! Will you please shut it! Listen to me. Yes, I lied to you. No, I don't love you. Of course it makes you look fat. I've never been to Brussels. It is pronounced 'egregious'. By the way, no, I've never actually met Pizarro but I love his pies. And all of this pales into utter insignificance in light of the fact that my ship is once again gone. Savvy?"
Captain Jack 12/22/2007 22:46:29 No worries guys. I'll try you all later.
Captain Jack 12/22/2007 22:46:10 Yeah... I got "call back later" and then *click*. Was sort of like WTF but decided not to press the issue...
Jeremy 12/22/2007 19:01:22 Yeah, Dean. Sorry, dude. I didn't even know about this til this morning.

Moeskido 12/22/2007 03:49:39 Happy Solstice, folks. Not much happening here over the week I have off, except for chores and paperwork. But at least I can get some sleep and drink Smuttynose Pale Ale during daylight hours, yeah?
Rich 12/21/2007 13:44:57 Personally I'm jolly because I have a new PC (Jer should be happy about that too), and am contemplating how weird it'll be to spend Christmas with my mum's boyfriend's family.
Rich 12/21/2007 13:42:51 That's shitty man, hope things turn around for you.
Captain Jack 12/21/2007 13:26:39 No. Hella sux. I have the holiday blues from Hell. How about you guys?
