Think I could do any Van Halen song on karaoke without the need for words on the TV. Won’t sound great, but the words would be correct.

Had the Van Halen back catalogue on repeat since EVH passed.

RIP EVH.... legend, genius....., and other words that don’t describe you well enough

I'd love to see you jumping on tables and singing Hot for Teacher, Marko! That could rival the Cowbell video!

John Martyn - One World.

Two cds picked up today from charity shop, ready for playing tomorrow:
MC5 - Kick out the Jams.
Marillion - Clutching at Straws.

“Once Bitten” album by Great White. What a blast from the past ......, 87 and my first car...... this blasting on tape deck.

You’ll have been into this as well, Ohio.

[Ohiotractorboy]

I always liked the Once Bitten Twice Shy song, but never got into Great White for some reason. Now, their name is marred by the ridiculous decisions they made in the bar.

I love Van Halen, but when they introduced the keyboards the sound went downhill IMHO. Van Hagar is horrible. My favorite album is VH II.

[marko69]

Aw no!! You no like Hagar Halen? Must admit I absolutely love both....., 5150 is a class album.

What is this "decisions in the bar" thing re Great White?

Ultravox, Vienna. Possibly the greatest track ever not to reach #1. 1981 was a great year for music and not just bias because we did so well on the field out there and collected other awards.

My youngest asked if she could go to a concert with some friends. We were like, sure. I then asked who was touring, and she said it was Green Day and Weezer. I was like, "Well sh^t, I wanna go!" She was like, um...no.

I told my oldest and she said, "I'll go with you, Dad." So this Tuesday, I am going with her to the concert. Who would have guessed when I bought Dookie in 1994 I would be going to their concert with my 20 year old in 2021?! Of course, we weren't allowed to sit in the youngest's section, so we are directly across from her in the stadium

Needless to say, this past week and this weekend is nothing but Weezer and Green Day.

Oh, so right now is Jesus of Suburbia

Actually listening to my partner snoring, can guarantee this won’t make it to the charts!

Likewise, i am trying to relax in my garden and i am having to listen to someone riding a scrambler bike a short distance away.

Think yourself lucky guys it’s been 37°here today and too bloody hot to listen to anything ! ..... it’s still 29° now and nearly midnight!

[Ohiotractorboy]

Gotta tell ya,

- Weezer were solid. Played their hits, not a whole lot of working the crowd, but were still damn good
- Fall Out Boy I didn't know a whole lot about coming in, but is one of those bands you are like OH YEAH, they sing that. They were really good!
- Green Day came out and Billy Joe Armstrong worked the crowd from the beginning. No joke, the best concert I have ever seen. They are heading to the UK next June, highly recommend you go if you like these bands.

[marko69]

That Billy Joe in concert is very energetic isn’t he. Only witnessed him on YouTube but man, that guy jumps around non stop for 2 and a half hours!

Managed to somehow pick up the Virus last week…., only just starting to feel better. Man, its a total b*stard of a thing.

News item yesterday says Scotland is seeing a substantial rise in pandemic cases ?

Listening right now to Vivaldi's Sopranino Concerto in C. Maybe a little pretentious to some tastes but that's what's on. Classical is mighty fine every now and again.

Yep, and unfortunately the really careful people are having to mingle with the couldn't care less people. Its a problem.
I certainly couldn’t have been more careful other than not venturing out at all.

Rossini - La Gazza Ladre, The Thieving Magpie. My all time favourite.

Right now I have Aerosmith on shuffle!!! Current song is Dream on!

[Frosty]

Great track!

New Maiden album out today. Always a big day. No distractions. Headphones on, volume up.

These always take a few “listens”. On the third listen now. Starting to dig it a lot. Unfortunately for Saint, my fave so far is “Death of the Celts”…… classic 80s sounding Iron Maiden.

You heard this new offering yet, Ohio?

[Ohiotractorboy]

NO, I have to check it out!!! Up the Irons!!

And Saint, I love me some Chopin's Nocturnes at night

[marko69]

NO, I have to check it out!!! Up the Irons!!

Plenty listens now......, It is an absolute classic album, Ohio.

[arana peligrosa]

Sounds of the 70's although helps if you're of an age to recall it.

Dat by Pluto Shervington. Not a reggae track that's one of the best but a genre of music that is far improvement on many others you could include.

[Andym]

The Bevis Frond, “Inner Marshland”

I'm not that young, but I confess I have never heard of the artists posted on the previous two posts. I need to get out more.
