  1. I thoughts Russia was going to roll through the Ukraine in a couple of weeks. We can all start screaming 10% for the big guy with absolutely no proof. We do have proof that Count Dracula aka Rudy Gulliani is in bed with a bunch of characters that make the most criminal gangsters in our country cringe. What is funny, he will be going to prison soon. The perfect call, that shit will come back to haunt someone. 11,781 votes is all need will come back to haunt some people. Trying to overturn an election will absolutely haunt a few people. The funniest shit I have seen is people screaming and crying that the FBI is a Democrat run organization, there has never been in the history of the FBI, and I mean never has there been a liberal head of that organization/department. Not one time. They have all been republican. It is very easy to look it up. I have a question, I am reading about Mr. Epstein, and that he was killed and silenced. When was he killed, who was the Attorney General, and who was in office when that happened. If there was some nefarious shit going on, shouldn’t our republican president, our republican attorney general, the FBI, the Supreme Court that is all right leaning have looked into it. It is strange to me that our president who was in office during that fiasco, and his attorney general, and the republican run government didn’t look into it. Certainly after they left office, and lost the house and senate there were a few that started asking questions, and accusing the other side. Just curious why it was after they lost control that it all the sudden became something that people didn’t trust. Makes me wonder.
  2. Great post Paul. I do live in a sanctuary state, and city. It is easy for people who don’t live in these areas to talk shit and spout nonsense. I will tell you without a doubt, if the people who are speaking as if they know how it works in the cities that allow asylum citizens, and if those citizens stopped working at the hotels, restaurants, and any number of places our states would collapse. So Hummingbird69 can say what he wants, I would love to ask where he lives, but the people coming here for a better life absolutely do the work that our natural born citizens will not and would never do. I live in the heart of the agricultural area in central California. There are absolutely no American born citizens picking crops. Not 1! And that is the same throughout the country, the hotel workers, the restaurant workers, they are bussed into the bread basket and also pick those crops, that has been happening since the 40’s and will continue to happen. The right will scream open borders, caravans, illegal immigrants flooding our borders every election cycle. The funny thing is, they have never come up with any solutions. Never once. There was an orange makeup wearing, slob who claimed he would make Mexico pay for the great big wall. That didn’t happen, he built a little piece of shit that was a couple miles long and we paid for it, as a matter of fact he had his buddies involved and Mr. Steve Bannon is on trial for taking money that didn’t belong to him that was supposed to be for the Great Wall! It’s a joke, MTG, and that whore Lauren B who couldn’t graduate the 8th grade are now the spokesperson/ people for the right wing. That sack of shit Tucker who is a Russian asset, and his old buddies at his joke of a television station that just had to pay almost a billion dollars and admit that they are equal to the national enquirer, that they are not journalists, and the next dominos will be OAN, and NewsMax. When those stations have to pay and admit to lying to their viewers, what will their excuse be after that? Same shit, a bunch of nonsense, gross people with gross ideas of what our founding fathers thought we would progress into. Go ahead scream groomers, Trans, ban books, and tell women what they can do with their bodies. The Right is a dying breed in our nation, and it’s because they are totally out of step with the younger generation. I don’t care if I agree with the generation below me or not, I know for sure that the authoritarian right wing is going to be destroyed as time moves on. Let’s have all the assault weapons we can get our hands on, let’s have mass shootings, then claim underprivileged areas are what is destroying our country. It’s all bullshit. The poorest cities in our nation, all Republican cities. The most welfare recipients all republican states/cities. The most violent cities are absolutely all republican cities/state run. The states that contribute the most money and prop up those shithole states and cities, all Blue. Please disagree with me. I will throw out statistic after statistic that will refute anything that anyone tries to lie about. So, thanks for the post Paul, I hope someone tries to call bullshit. I’ll be waiting.
  3. Don’t talk tough with the crack pipe and fanboy comments. RB is no where near the player live or studio as Page. That’s a fact. Again we can list the song’s written and produced and played next to each other and see who wins out. Jones verses Lord isn’t a comparison as Jones is a master of several instruments including keys. And we can clearly see how many albums were sold in Europe and Asia for each band. I gave the stats in an earlier post. Trying to say that they are comparable is laughable. How many lead singers did they have? How many moving parts did they have within the band? Talk about a delusional fanboy. You are actually trying to compare the two. Grow up Peter Pan. I am all for people loving whatever band they want, but we have to be realistic and honest. The court of public opinion is what matters.
  4. No need for Pity. We all can like what can like. Ritchie is a good technical player. But his playing doesn’t excite me. That’s all. I’m not missing anything, as I’ve said I have tried to listen and like. I just don’t.
  5. I was fortunate to meet both these men several times. Mr.Kapp owned a restaurant down the street from where I lived for a while in Mountain View. It was called Kapps. Great Pizza. He would also come and speak at our school as a scared straight kinda of thing at my High School. Vida was a great ambassador of the game and having won 3 championships in a row for my A’s was a beloved figure in the Town. Even though he ended up working for the Giants after retiring he would Make several trips to the coliseum and was always really cool to younger kids looking for an autograph or just taking time to talk. Sad to see all these guys from that generation passing away.
  6. I really like this one. I hadn’t heard it in a very long time. So very cool to hear John. Man, what a loss. I can only imagine what it was like for them. We have all certainly lost loved ones in our lives. But to think of the enormity of this loss individually, and collectively, and what it was to the music world cannot be overstated. I realize the loss of John Lennon. I certainly know that we have lost major influences over the years, I can’t help but feel that this loss, their loss, our loss of the greatest drummer who is obviously part of the greatest band has not been fully realized by the general public. Maybe that is what makes this band so different, that even if you were not alive to see them, or old enough to have seen them, but to listen and or read interviews, you really get the magnitude of who he was to the group, and who he was and what he meant to all of us. Just tragic, and also very cool to hear his thoughts and opinions on any number of subjects. Thanks for posting this.
  7. Hahahaha! Yes sir he may have been. We do know that they did like to hang out with a certain group of people, specifically when they were in New Orleans. Have a great night!
  8. Yes Sir, very well said. And luckily I don’t drink that piss water Bud Lite. More of an IPA man myself. Although I may have an allergy to something in IPAs as I have started to get headaches almost if not every single time I drink one. I love a good IPA for sure, but even if I have just one lately I will inevitably get a slight to major headache. Have a great night Strider.
  9. It really doesn’t have to come down to Lefties or Righties. If we all believed everything that our political parties stood for or every word out of their mouth, that would make us look like fools. There are plenty of idiots, with plenty of dumb ideas and thoughts on either side. I’m sure you have several you could point on the left, just as that human trash bag MTG, or that uneducated ridiculous mouth piece Lauren B or George Santos. But to sum up all Democrats in a word or for myself to sum up all Republicans in a word would be disingenuous, and they are not all representative of all of your or my beliefs I would hope. If we continue to go to our tribal corners as our elected officials are doing we are never going to get anything done for our country. I do have a question, when did the right start trusting Russia. Or more specifically when did they start trusting and actually believing Putin over our own security forces/apparatus? I know that we all feel China is an issue, but Russia is just a Chinese puppet.
  10. Yes Sir! And he can now ask for a ton of money to commit to his campaign. It is an utter joke to see where our politicians and politics have gone. As a 46-47 year old man to have watched where we were in the 80’s to what we have devolved into is insane. This license to spew bullshit and for the craziest people to have a say and voice is absolutely incredible to me. To be honest to see where we have moved from the Romney Obama 2012 election cycle to where we are at now is unbelievable and unimaginable to me personally. However, here we are. Thanks for your posts. I always appreciate them Strider.
  11. You got that right! What a hard left turn that company took. Holy shit man!
  12. Thanks Red. Hope to hear it soon. Looking forward to it.
  13. That is perhaps one of the best comments on any post I’ve read Slave. “ in the end will any of this matter”? You are right. Thanks for that. Love it.
  14. Hahahahahhahahahaha! That was a perfect response! I was drinking Bud lite and I did have on a pair of really long gloves if you know what I’m saying. Great response.
  15. Gas was a 1.38 when we are all on lock down and no one was driving. But, again, you are absolutely 💯 all in or against the enemy as you see them. Again, I am good with how you want to proceed in life. I purchased a business during the height of Covid, and we are absolutely crushing it. God willing we will continue to do so. As far as refuting it. I don’t know that you would listen or read anything other than your thoughts and beliefs. I absolutely would rather not rev each other up anymore. We both end up looking like assholes. I do that enough in my home life and on this forum. Again, I am calling a truce with you Hummingbird. If you don’t give a shit, I’m okay with that also.
  16. That’s looks awesome man. JPJ tits and all. Just kidding with you, the colors are brilliant! Great job. I wonder why it looks like he has a set of tits though. The shirt was bunched up I suppose. Again, amazing contribution my friend.
  17. Yeah man, the color is awesome! But it does look like JPJ had a C cup on the right hand side for sure. But, the colors are cool as it gets.
  18. Next time duck into that bar/pub. That is way too close to not have walked inside. Just kidding man, but rad choices! I appreciate them. Have a great night Sir.
  19. Thanks for the nomination my friend. I agree that Bonham saves those songs. But sometimes depending on my mood Presence will become my favorite album. I have been trying to get my daughter into all of their albums of course, but I routinely make her listen to ALS, live or in the studio. Have a great night. I really appreciate the post.
  20. I have been able to get that station when I was driving through that area. And you are right, they play great music in general. I have Satellite now, and while there are some great stations. They don’t play nearly enough Zeppelin on there. But, I can just hit Apple play and play them whenever I want. There is still something about hearing them come on without my decision to make them come on. Thanks for the reminder though. That was a cool station when my wife and I would drive through that area taking the boat out. Hope they are still around.
  21. Hey Hummingbird. I am calling a truce. You have your opinions, and I have mine. We both have no idea who each other are from some posts that we throw out there for whatever reason we throw them out. I respect your thoughts and opinions regardless if I agree with them or not. You are passionate about what you believe and think. I am good with that. I could spew a bunch of shit/statistics and throw in some articles. In the end it really doesn’t matter man. You have some very serious convictions. I do as well. We probably have more in common that you would think. As much as I would like to go back and forth with you on who is right or wrong. I am good with just trying to learn from others and not be someone who thinks that they are always right. I hope you and yours are good, I am not in the mood to verbally spar anymore. I would rather discuss the band that we are here for. I say that today, and I may read a post that you have thrown out there tomorrow and want to go on the offensive. But truly, unless we start trying to listen to one another, what the fuck does it matter. We can go to our tribal corners and not hear a word anyone is saying. That just doesn’t really interest me anymore. So, I respect your thoughts and feelings on your political beliefs. I really don’t care if you do for myself or others. Just as long as we are enjoying the forum and the band we love, we have that in common at the very least. Have a good night. Honestly, I didn’t read what you said to me because I know that I encouraged and wanted a reply. But at this point, I just want us all to be safe, healthy, and to move forward in a positive way. Hope to hear from you soon man. Have a good night. Also, as a side note, whether I support this admin or not does not mean that I believe that men can have babies. That’s like saying because you support Trump you think it is okay to grab women by the pussy. I could give several examples. You can support an ideology, or support a set of principles, but that doesn’t mean you support everything about the individual, or the party. I did read that part. Just wanted to answer that portion. Having said that, you and I both have real life problems that no party or political figure/figures are ever going to solve. They are not supposed to. That’s up to you and I.
  22. I can understand that. I just feel like you have always come up with some gem that we didn’t know, or maybe we had forgotten. Either way, I know it is a lot of work. Thanks for the threads/posts Steve. Lots of people here enjoy them, and I think we are getting new members that would like to have some information on the band. But again, I get that it is actual work coming up with it. I’m still holding out hope for Mr. Strider to give us his 72 memories. Not kissing anyone’s ass on this forum, but there are a group of you that I remember reading from the old board, and a bunch of you are still around. It’s cool for the younger generation to be able to soak up the information while you guys are still active on the forum. Thanks again.
  23. That is awesome Red. I am looking forward to hearing it. Please let me know what you put that out there man. I find it to be an inspiration. Keep at it my brother.
  24. I loved the back nine reference Steve. In my profession I have to remember all kinds of information all day everyday. I am finding it harder to remember verses just writing it down to make sure I don’t forget. I like to think as we get older our minds are full of more information and we have more to remember. I truly believe that. So to not let the inconsequential information go, we actually have to try and work on those memories. Thanks again for the info. I know for sure you have answered this many times, I thought that Robert was able to get his royalties back, or that he had to purchase them back. If I am mistaken and you have answered this many times I apologize. Have a great night Steve.
  25. I have been listening to his performance for a few days now. While I love/respect every member equally, it is amazing to see Plant out there actively working and pursuing his passion and dedication. I will say that I would love for him to do something acoustic with Page, but either way, just being able to watch and listen to him perform is incredible. This is a 75 year old man who is crushing it! God Bless him.
