Classic stuff.
So you have grown to know good music. You deserve credit.
I love rock also, but there ain't no new rock and there ain't no new country.
Together they suck.
Apart they are fantastic.
Check out the musicianship in old forties country like Bob Wills.
I think you'll be amazed.

Where am I?

Can't really post in CA thread... I'd really like to visit here - makes me feel sad and mad at the same time.

(my better half took these yesterday).

You're right!

80 and I are getting ready for Mom's return, you may have heard of the routine: clean, put away, clean, put away... Yeah, we were a tad lax while she was away.

While washing sheets and making the bed back to standards I noticed we have 10 pillows on the bed - 6 normal and 4 auxillary, decoratory...

Morning/Night SoCal!! Lets see, trucks back from the body shop and looking good again, dads V10 decided to throw a spark plug while I was driving it and I'm in the middle of midterms think that just about sums everything up lol..


Oh and i agree with the discussion about country music. Cant stand the new stuff, atleast the new stuff thats on the radio. Ive found quite a few new country bands with older or different styles that i think are way better.
