Excuse me... Flo?

Lloyd: Excuse me, Flo?
[Harry and Lloyd crack up]
Lloyd: Flo, like the TV show. Uh, what is the Soup Du Jour?
Flo, Waitress #1: It's the Soup of the Day.
Lloyd: Mmmm. That sounds good. I'll have that.



Florence is one sweet lady, she plays a floor tom while singing beautifully. This may not seem like much of a task but from a women who was born with dyspraxia - it's pretty amazing. Dyspraxia is a chronic Neurological disorder beginning in childhood that can affect planning of movements and co-ordination as a result of brain messages not being accurately transmitted to the body.

She has recently released a new album "Ceremonials," and it rocks pretty darn hard. Below is a single from that album "Shake it Out."Give her a listen and see her live if you can, she is best then.

LMFAO

This band is pretty hilarious and awesome. If you can listen to this whole song with out dancing or doing half a dozen jager bombs then you are a better man then me.

I would like to take this moment to cross promote my newest blog - "Last Suppers: Meals to live for and die by." It is here: http://mealstoliveforanddieby.blogspot.com/



Some other LMFAO songs you've probably heard and blacked out to are "Party Rock Anthem," "Shots," and "Yes"

Styx and Yes

About a week ago I saw a STYX and Yes concert. The show had a crowd very similar to Comicon or a Dungeons and Dragons tournament.  Needless to say I had an awesome time. Not since I became a level 42 fire mage, have I experienced such a magical night. The combination of two progressive rock bands in one night may be a sign of the apocalypse, but aside from the pestering horsemen, it was one of my favorite concert experiences. Both STYX and Yes are bands from an era long forgotten by people with dimentia. I was not surprised to see that the band members of Yes aged like many rockers and childhood celebrities before them. STYX, however, seemed to be in incredible shape. They spent the whole show running around, dancing, and climbing stairs without the aid of a motorized chair that rode up and down the side-rail. I was impressed enough to write about them again.

Here are a few more gems from the most infamous river in hell, STYX.

And some more yes too:

Back, kind of

I have taken a long break from posting sentence fragments on this blog. While I was away I would occasionally think of good subjects to write about and quickly jot down a few ideas here and there. These idea will eventually make their way onto the site. In addition to not writing on this blog, I have taken on and abandoned several other projects. If you check this blog often, I encourage you to continue doing so, the frequency of when I blog can really only go up.

This song speaks for it self, myself, and my people.

A break from the young and old

I've been busy and its hard to stay fresh with who is old and not since medical technology makes it so easy to change age, gender, and so on. I'd like to transition to a more whimsical theme of things I think are funny or I would like to write about. Here is the first one:

I saw this sign and thought it was hilarious.

Lionel Brockman Richie, Jr. (born June 20, 1949), is an American singer-songwriter, musician and record producer. Since 1968, he has been a member of the musical group Commodores signed to Motown Records. Richie made his solo debut in 1982 with the album Lionel Richie and number-one hit "Truly". In an totally unrelated note, he has aged pretty well.

David Lee Roth

In my opinion, David Lee Roth has aged "ok-ish" for someone who was clearly on a tremendous amount of cocaine.

These videos are fantastic. Had I had my adult life in the 80s there is a good chance I would not have survived it.

Mick Jagger

Sir Michael Philip "Mick" Jagger (born 26 July 1943) is an English musician, singer-songwriter, actor, and producer, best known as the lead vocalist of rock band, The Rolling Stones.Here are a few things you should know about this now 67 year old rock legend.

1.  He was knighted in 2003.
2. In 2006, he was ranked by Hit Parader as the fifteenth greatest heavy metal singer of all time, despite not being associated with the genre.
3. Allmusic has described Jagger as "one of the most popular and influential frontmen in the history of rock & roll"
4. He has aged.

 

When I first was considering writing about Mick, I thought I would be taking the position that he had aged well. Then after googleing some images and only yielding results from what I though to be a wax museum, I changed my mind. Taking into consideration how hard the guy has been on his body for the last 50+ years, he has aged pretty darn well. That being said, he resembles a worn leather hand bag more then his former self.
The only thing I can safely say about him is that he has aged way better then most would think possible.

Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne (born Clyde Jackson Browne; October 9, 1948) at 62 years old still looks significantly younger then his doppelgänger, the lead singer of the band Train.

Jackson Browne

His older looking twin and lead singer of the band train.  Train is best known for their song, "Hey, Soul Sister."

Jackson Browne an American rock singer-songwriter and musician who has sold over 17 million albums in the United States alone.




Coming to prominence in the 1970s, Browne's political interests and personal angst have been central to his career, resulting in popular songs such as "Somebody's Baby", "These Days", "The Pretender", "Lawyers in Love" and "Running On Empty". In 2004, Browne was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by his friend Bruce Springsteen. The same year, Browne received an honorary Doctorate of Music from Los Angeles' Occidental College for "a remarkable musical career that has successfully combined an intensely personal artistry with a broader vision of social change and justice".

Jon Bon Jovi

Another artist who has most likely made a deal with the devil or a great surgeon is Bon Jovi. He actually looks better now then he did 25 years ago.

 

An in addition to eternal youth, Bon Jovi enjoys a successful career, beautiful women throwing themselves at him, and (of course) millions of dollars.

Robert Plant

Robert Plant belongs on the list of artist who aged well mostly because he is still alive after touring with Led Zepplin. His pulse and spontaneous respiration aside, he actually looks fairly young still. Robert Anthony Plant was born on August 20th 1948. He is currently 62.
