Journey from Mariabronn is a song I listen to a lot. One group that I never got into was The Moody Blues. Also a big ELP fan. There was this bar in Norton, KS. that my high school buddies and I used to drive about an hour to back when their drinking age was 18 and we could drink 3.2 legally...The locals kept saying, ''You should've been here a couple years ago...Kansas played here all the time''...

Cool, there is a really good documentary about Kansas that they show on AXStv every now and then. It is hour and a half long and talks a lot about them playing the small town Kansas bar scene in the early 70's. I watch that Dan Rather Big Interview show a lot. I really enjoy that type of stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment

Big Red 40 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I liked Rush much better before the heavily synthesized stuff . 2112 , Fly by night , Moving pictures , Permanent Waves etc I really enjoyed, but they kind of lost me after Grace under Pressure . Neil Peart is a top 5 drummer all time , Geddy and Alex are very good musicians too . YYZ shows off their talents pretty well I think . Several years ago I introduced my college aged son to some Zeppelin , Rush , Old Metallica etc and for my birthday he took me to the Rush concert at the PBA 2015. Good concert and great moment in time . 3 Quote Link to comment

Moving Pictures is a classic, and deserves to be mentioned with some of the all-time greats. 3 Quote Link to comment

Moiraine Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I've liked every Miley Cyrus song that's been on the radio since Wrecking Ball was released. Her "crazy" period is when she started to make better music. It's still pop, but I digress. 1 Quote Link to comment

Of course I never listen to any radio stations that would play Miley.... Quote Link to comment

My Dad always thought so...I still remember Ed Shaughnessy playing at my big brother's highschool (Holdrege) when I was a 1st grader and My brother had a solo in Jazz Band...He was Johnny Carson's Drummer for the Tonight Show for a couple dozen years and at that age, I thought he was Buddy.. 1 hour ago, Moiraine said: I've liked every Miley Cyrus song that's been on the radio since Wrecking Ball was released.

I was just thinking the same thing about Justin Beiber and Timberlake today...I might have forgotten to mute a few Superbowl Halftime shows in time to not catch a partial song from them, but who else gives them airplay?

Danimal Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 J.K Simmons's 'jazz nazi" character in Whiplash was just too over-the-top for me to take the movie seriously. Quote Link to comment
