I'll have to check that out.
I'm assuming many of you have heard the song he did with his daughter Romany? Great song, Dad's solo around the 5:00 mark.
One of my favorite memes was always the one with her on guitar.

re: Peter Frampton, yea or nea?

Absolutely Yea!
Seem him twice. Great guitarist. Great voice.
I actually read his autobiography a couple of years ago. Some interesting stuff there. Seems his manager was connected to the Genovese family. And while PF said that any issues during tours, recording, whatever were "handled", the guy also kept him drugged up to cover his financial dealings (stealing) and after his huge burst of fame he wasn't left with much.
He also went to the same school as David Bowie growing up, and Frampton's Dad said Bowie was one of his best art students. After Frampton's career cooled Bowie asked him to play guitar on his Glass Spiders tour.
He has a progressive muscle disorder that affects his fingers, but still tours and records as long as he can.
Book is a quick read if you're a fan.

I'm still a year or two away from chucking the working life, but my advice is to travel more than you ever have.
As one retired YouTube influencer says,
"ADVENTURE BEFORE DEMENTIA".
Plan a trip, and even if it's only once a year, start planning the next as soon as you're back. The wife and I have already started hitting Europe in the last few years and can't wait to have more time to see more places.

re: Name your favorite song of all time and the one song you hate the most of all time
Posted by parrotdr on 5/6/26 at 3:48 pm to Dawglovertoo
Too many in each category, but here goes.
Favorite (one of several): Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters/Elton John
(If you want a treat go to YouTube and see the Wilson sisters of Heart sing it with two acoustic guitars)
Hated song: Come on Eileen/Dexy's Midnight Runners.
(I always said my idea of hell would be stuck in a Joann's Fabric Store for eternity with this song playing on a loop)

They all have their place and everyone's opinion is different, but I do love that album because it gave us "The Rain Song".
My personal list?
1. LZ
2. Physical Graffiti
3. LZ IV
4. LZ II
4. Presence (I think I like it more than most folks)
5. Houses of the Holy
6. LZ III
7. In Through the Out Door
I guess Coda is on the album list but I consider it more of a compilation album. I'd put The Song Remains the Same live album before it.

Bill Berry actually suffered a ruptured aneurysm on stage and collapsed. Amazing that he lived.
Good to see he's doing well.

Nope. The last season has some threads that culminate well in the last few episodes, that are more like one long one.

The guy probably didn't see you. You should have had your flashers on.
Not only are you NOT supposed to drive with your flashers in rain or any other weather, it's ILLEGAL in Louisiana and many other states.
Hazard lights (flashers) should only be used if your vehicle is disabled in the roadway or on the shoulder. There is no need to use your flashers while driving in the rain.
Flashing hazard lights can make it difficult for other drivers to see turn signals or brake lights, or cause them to think you are stopped or stalled in the roadway. Furthermore, because folks regularly using them while driving in rain, this can cause a car that is actually stalled with lights flashing to get hit by a driver who doesn’t anticipate proper breaking distance because they think the car is moving.

So you created an alter just to spread TikTok rumors about Helen Keller.
Do you go by another name for your Holocaust denials?

We're going back to KW in November. It's been a while but my favorite restaurant years ago was Turtle Kraals. I hear it closed recently. Any news?
