I was watching some video of Cheap Trick shows/TV performances on Youtube over the weekend. I'd say they are like ZZ Top in a way. They both play pretty much the same songs at every show and the energy seems to have left the band. From I could see - they seem to be going through the motions.

I think Dave and Mick sort of hate each other. Or so I have read over the years.

Peter was the only one at the ceremony. Jeremy and Danny were inducted - but were not at the ceremony. There were some others in the band. But - I would argue that Bob Welch saved that band for a time. Without him, they would have not made it to the Buckingham-Nicks era. I think Mick says something like that in his book.

They left out Bob when they were inducted.

Ray and Dave played together last night - You Really Got Me December 18th, 2915 (London) Although I have not heard it for years and years - it sort of sounds like the version on One For The Road.

I'll check it. I don't watch Downton Abbey either. I think Doc Martin is great though. Some rather black humor at times. I'll probably buy the dvd again - which is what I did last time.

That version of Loser on there is great. I find that solo really moving. And the version of Bird Song also.

The sound is great though.

That is correct. I don't think Frank cared much for the Grateful Dead.

This seems sort of cold to me:

That's sort of probably like the induction of Bruce Springsteen without the E Street Band. Although I am sure Steve had a lot more people in the band over the years. A lot of people may not know Boz Scaggs use to be in the band.

Exactly. I am Freedom Rock all the way.

I wouldn't want to see either of those bands in there - just because I hate that music. LOL

I can't relate to that. If you have never heard it - check out a Steve Miller song called Your Saving Grace.

Steve Miller is great - at least the early albums. I have original pressings of all of them. I have all the Deep Purple re-releases from back in the late 90s. They sound great and have really nice liner notes. I recently bought the 3-cd Japanese version of Made in Japan.

I am only 25 myself.

At least Deep Purple finally made it. I will be surprised if anyone other than Roger Glover and Ian Paice show up though.

There are also photos from that time in the Grateful Dead Family Album book.

Yes I remember them.

That's how dudes wore their shorts/jorts in the 80s. Some of you older dudes probably remember that.

And those pants that women wear. . .

He might.

That sounds like an outtake from the Bob Weir documentary. It makes me think of the scenes where he is inside the house (710 Asbury). I sort of recall hanging around there in the mid 1980s.

How was the last season of Doc Martin, old sport?
