  1. Indeed, Rest in piece Mr. Russell. What a great human being! He was a civil rights advocate, a person of honor, respect, morality. Just a great man.
  2. Honestly I have been waiting for someone to say this. I certainly don’t believe we all have to think the same way, or believe in the same things. But I too have thought about the thoughts of the three surviving members, and what their thoughts would be on a number of these topics. And not that they would be right or wrong. I’ve just truly wondered what a group of musicians who were certainly ahead of the times, and of the time. To each their own I suppose, but I like that you posted this.
  3. Thank goodness you hate Kiss. Their music does suck.
  4. A black guy, a white guy, and a Mexican walk into a bar! Waite, wrong thread. Also an amazing pic.
  5. You are so right. How many kids have been read to by drag queens in demonic dress, verses how many children have been raped/violated by priests. My point is, being so upset over a kid being read to by a dude dressed in drag is sort of silly. It’s outlandish really. How about don’t let your kids in that situation. You may find that appalling, some may find it equally appalling that they sent their children to a safe place to practice spirituality and they were totally and utterly ruined. I thought my country was founded upon separation of Church and state. I agree, kids should grow up and get to make their own choices. Meaning I shouldn’t be allowed to decide if they get to see that. There are some who feel the same way about religion, or spiritual practices.
  6. Are you speaking English?! What the hell are you trying to say. Drag queens/demons. Get it together man!
  7. Roy S was an amazing actor. Such a class act, one of my childhood favorites. It’s funny, with all these new streaming services, we do not have the same caliber of actors anymore. I don’t know that it is better or worse. But when I grew we had real movie stars. I feel like now with Netflix, HBO-Max, Showtime, Amazon, Hulu, all the other crap, we don’t have the same level of movies stars. Maybe the world will right itself soon.
  8. Great point. When I see sources such as Zero Hedge, and others that are like it, it’s not that I don’t believe it, for me it is the same as someone posting something from what is perceived to be a liberal bias. Pre 2015 we did not have this division. It just did not exist. We then had an administration that told its cult followers, and people that were on the fringe, if I say it is a lie, I’ll it is a lie, even if you heard me say it. It is absolutely crazy to see what we have devolved into. On the far left, and the far right.
  9. That is absolutely amazing! Really like seeing John ripping it. Goddamn that guy is beyond talented!
  10. All great choices Sir. Also, for those who haven’t seen “ Grizzly Man “ that is a great documentary. Herzog has a great style to his movies. No exaggeration, I’ve probably watched Good Fellas a couple hundred times. My wife and I will still put it on when we are going to sleep. What a cast, story, the acting, everything about it is brilliant.
  11. Gene was and is a total badass. Great movie. One of my favorite actors ever. He could do it all. Drama, comedy. I miss that guy in films. He has been my favorite character in many movies.
  12. My wife and I just finished the Documentary, Girl in the picture on Netflix. Very good doc. As far as actually going to the movie theater. I don’t know that I’ve been in the last few years. I need to change that.
  13. Hey John, great answer. I should not assume that you are part of the Trump Cult. My Bad. However, he is not my boogeyman. I’ve said before, when he was a character on the Stern show, or his TV show he was entertaining. That was a life time ago. Have a great weekend. I hope that you, and yours are well.
  14. Man, I haven’t listened to this in a long time. Jimmy is on fire. Obviously Jonesy and Bonham are always locked in. I want to go back and read the Nit-Picks on this specific show. Very impressive. Musically/Instrumentally 73 was a banner year. Despite what my screen name is, I don’t have a favorite band member. It changes with the concert, time, whatever I’m into at that moment. But I personally really like Robert’s voice in 73. Some of the raw power has left, but the phrasing, the emotion, the vulnerability of his voice is something I really dig in this period. Jimmy’s tone, style, and attitude in 73 is probably my favorite time period of the 70’s. Just the way the songs had developed. I will say that 98 was a very special time for Jimmy, and something that I go back to often. But I digress, this show/performance is spectacular. Thanks for posting this
  15. You are right, because Trump had the best words! What a joke.
  16. You never disappoint Steve. I don’t know how I missed this.
  17. I agree, I have the Studio Daze Boot, as well as Studio Haze. I have not put them on for well over a decade. Maybe more. Great call. Cheers, I’m going to put these on now, I just received an old console stereo. We have a guy local that rebuilds them, he outfits them with new speakers, makes them blue tooth compatible, upgrades the turn table, and adds a CD player. He does amazing work, he is in the Mountains in Boulder Creek, company called Swag. Such an impressive artist. I just received an old Sylvania that he rebuilt as a Fathers Day gift. My wife has been doing a great job on the gifts lately. I received an old Harmon guitar signed by all members, as well as a Led Zeppelin III album signed. She has been on an amazing streak. Thanks again.
  18. Hahahahha! Great catch. Yeah man, just a classy dude. We are blessed to have these guys around.
  19. You can’t possibly be arguing that climate change is a hoax. That’s absurd. It is for sure, no one argues it except QAnon whack jobs. Yes the weather has always changed. And there was a dust bowl in the 30’s. What that has to do with today, and what we are experiencing on a global level is beyond comparison. The people who don’t believe it can keep saying it until they are blue in the face. Not everyone, and everything said is from a leftist agenda. It’s not to ensure that the Clintons continue to eat babies in a Pizza parlor. When did a massive portion of the population stop reading, and or believing everything that is happening in the world? It’s insane. Oh, I remember when Fake News hit the streets, and the biggest liar who ever existed started telling people that everyone other then him was lying. Goddamn. I know, the world is flat, we never landed on the moon, Jesus is a white guy with blue eyes and cool blonde highlights, Trump is the tallest, toughest, coolest, most successful businessman who started with a loan of 10.00, he has the biggest dick of any man ever, and the highest IQ and created Mensa! Barack is a terrorist who was born in Kenya, Joe Biden is dead and we are watching a weekend at Bernie’s, Trump is waiting for Hugo Chavez to come back from the dead and admit that all the voting machines were made by him, the Vax is a micro chip program so Bill Gates can control the planet and consume all the worlds resources. Did we catch them all?
  20. I’m actually surprised to see this response from you. I truly believe that you are educated, and well read on a number of topics. Perhaps read this article, I think everyone should. As strongly as you feel about a number of things in this country, your disillusionment of this country and its policy makers/leaders particularly on one side has made me research many points and opinions you have shared. I too am worried about this country, where we are headed. I am terribly concerned with one parties autocratic view point and position, and advances that they have made. Seeing your diplomatic response to Led77 as silly as it may seem gives me hope that we can have different thoughts and opinions and still try and understand each other. When I say I’m surprised, I mean that in a complimentary way. I have always viewed your responses and opinions on Covid specifically in a condescending way. You don’t have to agree with the article below, I however as a near 50 year old man feel I’ve been watching this slow roll by a political party for a while. I feel that it is speeding up. Have a great night. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/04/16/history-shows-trump-personality-cult-end-00024941
  21. That is one way of looking at it. He inherited an economy that was doing very well, Obama on the other hand inherited a recession. Under every major metric Trumps economy was below Obama. Trump was by far the most divisive president in history. He made it common for the crazies to have a voice, for people who once were in the shadows to come out full force and talk about their racist, conspiracy theories as if it were normal. Unless someone never read it would be really easy to see that sleepy Joe also inherited a recession, and I’m not saying that I like what he is doing. Because I am not terribly happy with the way things are. The absolute shit handling of Covid under the previous administration certainly did not help things. Just as the absolute shit bag Obama inherited. And Joe isn’t Obama for sure. We shall see how things work out over the next couple of years. In my eyes he is a shit talking, carnival barker, authoritarian wanna be who was an absolute embarrassment to our country and the people that have worked so hard trying to shape this country. A spoiled little brat who when he was beat screamed at the top of his lungs about some made up stolen election although there is no and never was any evidence, and he himself has admitted that. Not one shred of evidence because it was always a way to try and hold onto power that he so dearly coveted. I would love to see one piece of evidence that exists. I’ll wait.
  22. It really is too bad. Great song, love the drums, Jimmy’s tone is sick! Would have like to have heard what the vocals would have rounded out to be. But yes your words “ Power and Swagger “ certainly nail it. Just a rad song. I’ve been on a real In Through The Outdoor kick lately. I love that album. A lot of people don’t think it measures up to the rest of their output. I personally would have liked it to have been their next chapter, instead of their last chapter. I know we had Coda, and I love that album as well. But for me ITTOD in my opinion really felt like a new beginning for the band. I could be reading to much into it. But there are some of Robert’s best lyrics, Bonham was just pure magic on that album, Jonesy was brilliant, and Jimmy had some of his best work. The I’m gonna Crawl solo is one of my favorite solos ever from him. Let alone his work on Fool in the Rain, In the Evening, hello, all of them. Sorry to ramble. Great Post Sir.
