What current Christmas TV Commercials Drive You Crazy?
Winston Legthigh replied to kidsmoke's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
Not a Christmas commercial, but I just saw a commercial for the first time last night, and it might be my all time fave: The Ball Bike. -
Highly Praised Music Artists That Don't Do a Thing for You
Winston Legthigh replied to GtrPlyr's topic in Someone Else's Song
Well, at least one of the old school guard is taking legal action: http://www.avclub.com/articles/and-now-george-clinton-is-suing-the-black-eyed-pea,49049/ -
Highly Praised Music Artists That Don't Do a Thing for You
Winston Legthigh replied to GtrPlyr's topic in Someone Else's Song
None of the artists given as examples of Pop->Serious are artists who pretended to be pop just so they could get their "real" material published later, which is what the original scenario describes. Right? Beatles, Buddy Holly, Stones, Dylan, Marianne Faithfull, etc. were all doing what they wanted to do at the time they were doing it - they weren't selling out at the beginning of their careers just to get their foot in the door, so that at a later time they could afford to be true to their real artistic inclinations. -

Well, there were four lads from Liverpool... But, they're an example of artistic growth, rather than one of suppressing true artistic inclinations to make it big. Their song-writing skills grew from the days of Love me Do. John wasn't sitting on "Revolution", waiting to spring it on unsuspecting girliefans only after he had cornered the song-writing market. -

Band that you like the 'idea of'...
Winston Legthigh replied to Vacant Horizon's topic in Someone Else's Song
I like the idea of The New Pornographers, but I really only enjoy the songs that Neko has a big presence in. NRBQ: I really like the idea of NRBQ, and I really enjoyed the 2-3 times I've seen them live, but I never have interest in listening to their albums. -

So what do you love about wintertime?
Winston Legthigh replied to kidsmoke's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
79!!! Wholly Shite! We keep our house at 60. And, I forgot to add to my list: I LOVE shoveling. LOVE IT. Takes me an hour to shovel my driveway. Had to do it this morning. So quiet. Only other sound was the distant scrape of someone else shoveling their drive. I take pride in my clean driveway. -

Winston Legthigh replied to kidsmoke's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
I love getting into a cold bed. I love taking a winter walk, being bundled up, but having a frozen face. I love winter saunas. -
Any Love Here for "The Walking Dead"?
Winston Legthigh replied to Sweet Papa Crimbo's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
I didn't care for it. But from the responses here, I'm in the minority. I LOVE zombie stuff. I thought The Walking Dead was very weak. -

Winston Legthigh replied to Sweet Papa Crimbo's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
Any positive comments on the first season? I'll keep my debbie downer opinion to myself... -
Yes. Los Lobos' Tin Can Trust was a good one. I also enjoyed The Sword's Warp Riders and Tom Petty & The Heartbreaker's Mojo.

Watched Ridley Scott's Robin Hood. Kind of a stinker. I LOLed at the medieval French having front-loading landing craft - (an innovation not made until the 20th century).

Here. Love. Sir Stewart - you write "even Mr. Moonlight", and I'm inferring your phrasing to mean that you think it's a weak song... Do you think so? It has some of the band's best 3-part harmony, and there's not many equal examples of John's singing - he really nails the first line. For those reasons, I absolutely love the song.

The 8 Month Old "New" Fall TV Season 2010-2011
Winston Legthigh replied to u2roolz's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
I wonder how DVR has affected air-rates for commercials. I wonder what percentage of viewers are like me - that they only view "taped" shows?
