Islands anyone?
Personally I've really been enjoying the Epitaph collection of live performances from the Fillmore's in late 1969. Heady stuff!

Yeah, by the end of the tour he was rarely bathing, his face was spotty, the perm had come out of his hair. The guy who ran their laser show said his poppy suit reeked. Whereas Robert would have his jeans neatly pressed every morning, Jimmy's outfit was just hung in a corner growing new life forms.

I am not up to date on my phobia'a. What is that one?
Fear of being outside of your comfortable space. Anxiety and/or panic often brought on by being in public places.
Hah, Nine beat me to it!

Oh!Jimmy was in Peace Memorial Park!
Zeppelin performed in Hiroshima in 1971.
All members visited Peace Memorial Park when they went to Hiroshima.
They contributed all of earnings of the concert to Hiroshima City, and they became the honorary citizens.
It was reported that Jimmy was crying in the Peace Memorial Museum when he saw the extensive damage that atomic bomb gave. I remember Jimmy was positive in the charity from the 70's.
Thanks,Evster2012. I love these pictures very much.
There's a bunch more photos of all the boys from that day in the park, but sadly my scanner and the book they're in are in storage.
Anybody got a copy of this laying around for Alice??

I'm curious. What is with saying "more from me" when posting watermarked shots off of someone's website? I don't really care personally, but it seems odd to be taking credit for someone else's work. I mean it's different if you've done the scans yourself. But Google search, right-click, save as? Well that isn't really from you is it? Just saying, because I see a lot of pics here that came from us collectors. Just because I don't tag my scans doesn't mean I can't spot them. Knebby's too.
Anyway, rant over.

I love his look in this one, so...so...
So..so..in incredible pain. Notice his blackened ring fingernail on his left hand? Smashed it at the airport in Long Beach. Had to improvise new "three-finger" playing style.

Dude, in recent years he was not the most beloved living entertainer on the planet. Back in his prime but not in recent years.
Dare I ask who is the most beloved living entertainer on the planet? Clearly you have me over a barrel. And "dude", my post stated perhaps the most beloved living entertainer on the planet. I wasn't speaking in absolutes. You're speaking of things that cannot really be measured. As with Elvis or the Beatles, his has been an indelible imprint on the world. You cannot erase that over a career slump. Your attempts to relegate him to insignificance are both futile and unkind.
-
Well his image took a huge hit to say the least in the United States at least. You sure know how to put down a brew dude! To say he was the biggest of all time though is not fair. You have Elvis, Sinatra, The Beatles and this band called Led Zeppelin. True they all appeal to a different audience to some extent, but all huge just like MJ.
I never said he was the biggest of all time. I said he was probably the most recognised LIVING entertainer in modern time. Though who knows anymore? Might be friggin Britney. My point was and is that he is beloved the world over. That cannot be denied. And let's be fair, Spats was trying to deny that. I can see both points, but there are several million people who hadn't filed him away as irrelevant.
Also, Elvis, Sinatra, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin? I'd never diminish their fame. You've basically named my all-time list. However up until a day or so ago, Michael was the only one without a gravestone in his/their career. There's a 10 to 32 year gap to account for.

Wrong. Maybe not in your small corner of the planet.
I think the global reaction speaks for itself. Perhaps the media pushed him off the entertainment radar in America in recent years, but on a global scale? Not. I hate to say it, but sometimes America's illusion that whatever we believe is how it is everywhere is embarrassing. Guess what, a million fans in Indonesia, India, the UK, Russia, China, um...everywhere else essentially, didn't get the memo. The lesson here is, think global or get left behind. Take off the blinders "dude".
-
Yeah, it's embarrassing that the majority of Michael bashers are my fellow Americans. Fucking American press. We really need to get out of the US more often. Amazing how we believe this is what the whole world is like. So smug and self righteous. I'm ashamed.
-
Yes I most definitely agree. I have to say that it just sickens me there are people on this site stooping so low in a time of such a tragedy.
As I see it, death is always a loss. It's not like he was strapped in the electric chair for crimes. Some folks seem to forget that this guy was perhaps the most beloved living entertainer on the planet. His fans could possibly number in the billions. There are probably people in mudhuts in the rainforest crying today.

I was really sad by him especially. I just realized today Thriller was my first real 'rock' album I bought. I was about 6 or 7 when it came out. I have it on vyinl. It was so sad to hear him on the radio and know he's gone.
Aen, I can't for the life of me understand why some people think this is something to make fun of. It's really disheartening.
So I guess what made me unhappy today was the utter lack of class displayed by some people here. I think we all could have done without that.

Seems some heated debate about the property rights to this thing. The hardcore Rhoads fans are screaming blue murder! I'd certainly love to see this, I just hope no one dies in the effort!

Great pic songbird! I think we're ready to boot you out of the nest!
I'm sure you'll come out swingin'
You haven't been minding the nest Rorer! She snuck out the bathroom window years ago!

I guess I won't bitch about our 20th day of gray in the month then
Isn't it always cloudy on Venus?

You know TFLZ if you were a negative quadratic equation, your small-ativity would approach negative infinity.
The slope of your tangent line would as slanted as the slope of your forehead.
If your were a sub-atomic particle, you would be a weak boson.
Even a neutrino has more mass than your pathetic cry for the attention your mommie didn`t give you.
Give it up ok?
It was funny the first 100 times.
Now its annoying.
Gimme a a 40-round clip from Tony Montana if it makes you feel better.
Quarks! Up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom! Evidently we have here the antiparticle (TFLZ). Gimme some marinara, I'm goin' down the hole! Spaghetti for all!

And I have no idea who is pretending to be who, or whatever. That's pretty lame though... is that really all some people have to do with their time...?
Evidently. I think half a dozen of the members here are one person playing games as male and female.

Just asking but, why is this thread called John Baldwin? I mean, I know it's his given name, but it seems to me like starting a Julius Marx thread.

Mine too! I also love Discipline and Thrak. Totally different band with Belew and Bruford, but I really love it!
