Eagles - Hotel California (Live)

Some fine guitar.

Hey even I enjoyed that Mr.bpr played them forever at radio stations, now I want to go to you tube and look up a bunch- I have to admit the Eagles, James Taylor,Elton John, Doobie Brothers, Michael Mcdonald and I would be here all night if I continued and Chicago, I gotta stop are some of my favorite- laugh if you want I love the Jackson Five, and during the victory tour we had a chance to meet them, thanks to some nut head made a threat and wouldn't let us. I think that was the best concert I went to in the 80"s. Thanks for the link.

There's a TON of great music on YouTube.

I've also found some 'OLD', for me anyway, great comedy stuff like Dunk Airline Pilot - Dean Martin & Foster Brooks", et al.

No offense to those that do this for a living, but it's funny!

I was watching some Marshall Tucker just today on youtube, 24 hours at a time featuring Charlie Daniels, it don't get better then that.

I yam what I yam....Popeye

There's some good picken and a grinin to be had there.

I've found 38 Special - Teacher Teacher, some great Ray Charles, REM, etc, etc, etc on youtube.

I suggested Eagles - Hotel California to muddle. It's one of my all time favorites.

Mr.bpr played 38 special back in radio land when they were big, since he was operations manager and afternoon announcer, music director at a station we got to go back to meet them.

I love 38 special-but with my being alot shy back in those days I didn't say much to them. Nice guys - maybe a little on the hard life side but I still loved their music. I had forgot about them- thanks!

It broke my heart when MTB broke up, I was a fan from day one. My young'un likes them too especially Charlie. My southern roots arew showing I guess. I love the Big Band and R&B with a lot of horns too.

I yam what I yam....Popeye

Try this one.

Thanks for the link- could not quit laughing - since you like all music except disco - here are a few of mine- look closely and you might see me in the audience.

Try this one

And this one

At least, that's what a lot of fat preachers in 3-piece suits were saying back in the late 70s, early 80s. (How embarrassing.)

This is a great version. I love the opener with the line of acoustics. It's the sort of thing that makes you glad you're alive.

And I think that Don Henley is one of my alter egos. (Others include Dicky Betts, Paul McCartney, Neil Young and Judy Garland. Well, maybe not Judy.)

I have the complete collection of Sarah Brightman's CD's along with all the Cirque du Soleil soundtracks. I wish I could get an English translation to some of the Cirque du Soleil. Some of it's in a rather obscure Russian or Slavic dialect.

From what I've been able to find, "Vocea", the 'Flight of Icarus' appears to be a Romany (gipsy) dialect influenced by a Slavic language spoken in Serbia, FYROM, Bulgaria or somewhere else in the Balkans – probably, Balkan Romani (rmn ISO 639-3) which is different than Carpathian Romani (rmc ISO 639-3) spoken by gipsies living in Romania. The lyrics don't have much to do with Romanian.

Only two Romanian (Latin) words there: luna - the moon and vocea - the voice.

I don't care, it's great music and the singer has a beautiful voice.

As long as it's not disco or rap, I have just about one of everything. All music is good. Disco and rap aren't music.

Reciently Cirque du Soleil used Beatles music.

I've always wished that Cirque du Soleil would team up with Pink Floyd. Wouldn't that be a show!

Hmmmm.... I'm afraid I might be a rock head.

Are you familiar with Australian Pink Floyd? Unbelievably good for a cover band. The link is to a clip from their recent Fox show. I've not seen them live, but people say it's like traveling back to 1976 or so and seeing the real thing. I first heard of them when PBS ran a show. They did "Great Gig in the Sky," and the female vocalist was incredible.

I hate to disillusion you, but the Cirque music is "gibberish," deliberately so.
I worked for Cirque a little and was told it was "original" music, meaningless words of mixed languages, in order to fit the stage actors motions and themes.

A neighborhood pub would be a welcome rarity. I haven't set foot in a real irish pub south of the D.C. area. If you know of one, please let me know.

The closest thing to it of which I am aware in the Atlanta area is the Brick Store Pub. It does not consciously bill itself as an "Irish pub," but, unconsciously, it has the feel of having just stepped off of the street in, say, Oxford. Good pub grub, GREAT brews on tap (and a wide selection), and a great atmosphere both inside and out. And NO TELEVISIONS.

I discovered this pub when I was going to Decatur every weekday for 7 weeks for radiation treatment. Kind of turned a bummer into a nice outing as I would head over there once in a while after getting zapped.

Fado in Buckhead is the real deal. Even have imported bricks/cobblestones from Ireland.

You know the traditional Irish drinking song, right?

"O, we'll.....

Drink and drink and drink and drink
And drink and drink and drink

Then we'll

Fight and fight and fight and fight
And fight and fight and fight."

Not sure of that one....but I know "O' ya canny kick yer granny off da booss....." sang w/ a drunken lilt a' course......mostly after a bloody Rugby or Football(that's Scottish or Irish football a' course) match

Ahh the good ol' days

"once in a while you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right"
"listen to the thunder shouting, "I AM, I AM, I AM"

Forgot to mention.....was first there years ago after my NJ RFC had played in the Savannah St. Pats tournament and swung by ATL. before heading home. Last time I was there (been 2x in 5 1/2 yrs living here) we wandered in to a local Rugby party, so needless to say, parts of the place were......rowdy, but in a good way.

DC had some nice Irish pubs indeed. There are 2 cool ones near the Postal Museum , slightly northwest of the Capitol building. One was literally called "The Irish Pub." There are also a nice one by Catholic University. I can't remember the name though. Eagerly waiting a review on this possible local one.
-reserved for something more clever to say

It's on the corner of Alabama Ave. and Naylor Road in SE?

2840-B Alabama Avenue S.E.

Say you've been there and I'll buy you your first drink.

It will be the same Redneck Gourmet. Just in case, bring your own bent spoon and enjoy the Black and Tan.

It's sooooo much better that instead they get their sewage service from Coweta County or build their own. That way, PTC gets the by-product of it all and nothing else like the revenue. Yeah, this really worked out well. This is what happens when politicians get very myopic and short-sighted and demagogue instead of trying leadership.

What a novel idea.
