It's Toe Tappin' Time

I do believe it's time to cut loose a bit and let my friend George tear the place up.
If you never got to see George Thorogood in concert back in the day then you have no idea what you missed out on.

That dude rocked, hard.

This is real rock and roll baby.

A Special Treat

I have looked for this off and on for years now.
Paul Rogers and Jimmy Page while they were together in a band called The Firm in the mid eighties.
I am watching a Bad Company concert on Tee Vee right now and spent a half hour hunting this down.

Crank it up, this is way fucking good and not something you have ever heard on the radio, sadly.

Going to the Parts house and then...

I'm coming home, to work on my truck, which I see needs a new timing chain.
I'm gonna cheat as long as I can and keep turning the distributor as far left as I can and hope the weather warms up real soon. I ain't as young as I used to be and Uncle Arther[itis }just kicks my ass anymore.
 Replacing the timing chain on a truck you have to have a step ladder to see the engine in ain't gonna be no fucking fun and will probably take two days to do because of my lack of enthusiasm.

Still gotta fix that fucking Chevy too.

Like I said, total lack of enthusiasm.
I'm just plain getting old and tired, just like my rides.

I can has nap now?

For My Baby

She loves me, even though I irritate the shit out of her constantly.
She records concerts for me while I am at work and pulled off a doozy tonight, A live David Gilmore concert at prince Albert Concert Hall from '97.

It was fucking awesome..
Right at the end, she told me that she wished they had played One Slip.

OK, I love this woman, seriously.
.Pulled that one out off the top of her head and right off my favorites list.


The fourth time of the night the hairs on my fore arms stood on end.

This one's for you Baby.

Alas, it was not meant to be but you are in luck.

What a great song. I love this tune beyond reason.




He did play The Division Bell, Also known as High Hopes, both tunes are off Pink Floyd's last album of the same name.




Enjoy this too and remember, if it says Pink Floyd on the label, label, label,get the headphones or you are totally missing out.
Thanks fer stopping by.

A Re Post

Grab your headphones, a beer and your balls.

JP turned me onto these guys from Iraq a couple of years ago and for some damn reason this tune started going through my head at work the other day.
Do yourself a favor and go read the back ground on these guys.
In the middle of Stupie McFuckwits war, they were cranking out some serious tunes.

Remember, I have to wear ear plugs because of all of the heavy machinery going full blast and I can tend to let my mind wander at times when I am just standing around for a few minutes.

Sometimes I find myself hearing the strangest music in my head out of the blue but I always really liked these guys from Iraq.

Be patient, wait for the first minute and then it starts to get good. With a decent set of headphones, tune into the drummer dude, he is off the fucking charts.
You can obviously hear the Middle East influence in their music and they turn it into serious Rock and Roll.


About 2:45 in, they make Metallica sound like a virgin caught with a dick in her mouth.

Beware, there be heavy metal in these here parts and I have listened to this so many times I am starting to think there is something wrong with me, like you haven't noticed.
Damned if I know why but once or twice a year I have to have a serious medical sized dose of Metal music. Intensive care treatment.
Feed the Beast kind of thing.
Part of what keeps me Ornery I guess.

Thanks JP, this is a winner.

Wanting to go see The Wall

I just found out Roger Waters is coming to Portland in May and the tickets go on sale Monday.

FUUUck me, I always wanted to see Pink Floyd,even though the key boardist died last year and they have been broke up for years anyway.


Tickets can go clear up over a grand apiece for front row, my budget is quite a bit more modest and this could be my christmas present but the wife says no, she wants to go too.

A couple of hundred apiece to get the back of the venue with a straight shot at the stage, we will make that work.

For those of you who like Floyd, there is a tribute band from Australia that I have actually seen and they play Floyd note for note, have extremely awesome back up singers and a wicked light show.
Some of the members of Pink Floyd actually went and saw them am said it was the best concert they ever went to and gave them a couple of the big inflateable props from their own show.
I saw the big rat myself.

Think I'm kidding these guys are good?

Oh, hell no.


Sorry, it's the best of the crappy videos I could find on Youtube but just listen and you will get the idea.
Just fer shits and grins, here is the European version, pretty good too;



Now, for the real deal,


If Aussie Floyd gets any where near you and you can afford it, go see this show, it's awesome.

I ain't fucking kidding.

Relax For A Fucking Minute

 This is good, trust me.

Just so ya know, I always thought Steve Winwood was just a keyboard guy.

Oh, Fuck, no.

The guy is apparently a guitar master as well and this video had me with my jaw hanging open.

One more thing before we all kick back and watch an awesome performance.
Can I just say I fucking LOVE back up singers?



And yes dear, I'm looking at you, Suzanne.

David Gilmore, Shine on ,you crazy diamond,the acoustic version.
Take the time to watch it and wait for the Sax player, it is so worth it.

Thank you Bud, you know who you are.

Empty Rooms

This is a great video that I shamelessly swiped from my good friend Suzanne after she posted it over at Late Late night at FireDogLake.
Gary Moore does a superb job on this tune.
Unfortunately, Gary died suddenly earlier this year of a suspected heart attack. He was truly one of the under appreciated great guitarists He played for Thin Lizzy and BB King and a host of other legends. He also had a great solo career
This is the live version and it is rather long but worth watching, every minute of it.



So long Gary, we hardly knew ya.

Watch And Listen

There is a little something for everyone here, just stick around long enough and pay fucking attention.



This time, it's the message, not the tune you should be paying attention to.
