    wild guesses
    You asked for it, Joe. My wild guesses are:1.) something involving sheep (whoops, that would be New Zealand) 2.) bashing heads together, rugby style 3.) some physical contortion where both parties are upside down, as Australia is in the other half of the world from some of us am out of wild guesses for the moment, but will add more should they occur to me ********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

    I had one of those "it just dawned on me" moments myself. I teach at a girls private school and I have, of course, a homeroom. There's a girl named Jasmine who rises somewhere around 6' 2" or so, is big-boned, and never says a word. She has intrigued me from the get-go and I just figured out why. I was gazing outside my classroom when she happened to pass by and - Bing! - it hit me. Big Chief from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest"! Picture him making those huge strides with totally upright posture. I shant see Jasmine the in the same way.

    I met "The Dude"
    ...as I was still by the side of the road, bound to my load... I met "The Dude" He looked, walked, and talked like "The Dude" The Big Lebowski dude, I mean, of course. We rapped about this and that for a few hours, shared a meal together of ka pow gai and pa ki mau and a few other tasty delectables... turns out, this "Dude" saw the Warlocks back in 64, or so the story went. Even at Altamont, he was witness to what many have only seen on film. We shot a game of pool, I taking the game with only the 8 left on the table. When I mentioned, after great pause; that he was "The Dude" in my eyes, and when I mentioned the film the Big Lebowski, he rose from his seat, quietly excused himself, and faded into the mystic. An experience I shant easily forget.

    or is it, "good grief, Charlie Brown" ??!! damn, this forum has grown exponentially as well as in bounds and leaps. I will never be able to catch up. I feel like Charlie Brown (or was it Linus??) waiting until the last night of summer vacation to read the book he had to read and write a book report on it. even those two words, "Book Report" send shivers of fear and paranoia down my spine... ******** OK, back to BUSH. (Busch beer and pussy, that is) did I just say that out loud??!! ahh, hemmm haw, hemm haw... hamuna hamuna hamuna (Ralph Kramden voice) ( -; peace.

nope, nice guesses, but neither Peggy O or CC Rider and the show was from 1982... pretty close with the year, though!! peace "The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence"

Upon further review I've concluded that the sound bit is "Touch." If it isn't "Touch" then it's "Bertha."

Oh, yeah, about the "Playin'" Controversy: I couldn't find a real good comparison with Keith on keys as it seemed he used the Wah-Wah until Keith left and ditched it around the time that Brent came around. I definitely like both styles, but the Stratocaster + Wah-Wah is a tone that just really did something for me. Now, its not like I'd ever complain about hearing it either way, but yes, Joe, you did point out many other factors that contributed to the "not quite the samedness" of the two versions, but I did the same thing you did: I listened to so many versions of Playin' that just floored me that I forgot what I was doing! Bozo Bus: I was in a band called "San Pedro Circus" back in 2001 when I played there. We were on tour and I had a bunch of my Denver buddies show up so it was kind of extra special for me. That and I actually played well that night which I had been struggling with at the time. I think there was an opening band, but green cookies and two hours worth of basketball in the hot sun before the gig make most of it very blurry. Somebody call this tune quick before Joe starts thinking he is a genius or something. (nyuk nyuk nyuk!) )(I'm just a, well...porpoise.)(

not touch, not Bertha... nice guesses. Sken, I used to be a genius, then I realized it is more fun to be a 'fool' on the ship of fools... You thought you was the cool fool, and never would do no wrong... Heaven help the fool; guess I showed the sons of bitches Heaven help the fool, professional gimme-fiver... The wisdom of hypocrisy, the common sense of fools... Though I could not caution all, I still might warn a few Don't lend your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools... peace. by the by, I've been waiting for Gypsy Soul to try this round... she was the one who coaxed me into hosting this gameshow in the first place. ain't it always the way? just when you think you are developing a fan base, they skip out on you... the show must go on.

I'm putting every upbeat song in A that I know - one at a time. "From day to day, just lettin' it ride, You get so far away from how it feels inside, You can't let go, 'cause you're afraid to fall, But the day may come when you can't feel at all."

the easiest hosting site I have come accross is imagevenue.com you can even upload pics and post them without registering... go to their home page, follow the simple instructions, click 'safe for work' or 'not safe for work' as the case may be... copy and paste the new url into your post, and presto, the pic will appear here... easy to use, really. image hosted by ImageVenue.com "The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense.

http://img142.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=th_30735_oscar_122_544lo.jpg but with imagevenue.com, use the url that says 'Hotlink Image on a Website or Auction' for some reason on this board, it does not take the other ones... and it will end up looking like this shit at the top of this post... not the cool pic of Oscar. peace.

not Cold rain and snow... please try again. I'm gonna give this round another 24 or 48 hours before I ditch it and start round two.

nice try, but nope. not Sugar Mag. OK, one hint... this particular song is the first song of a second set played in 1982. if no one guesses this one in the next 48 hours, I'll tell the answer and move on to round two. please don't touch that dial.

that the light strumming isn't the part to be keying in on. I may be wrong. Right before the clip ends it sounds like the onset of Victim.
