Discussions | | What is your top five favorite good old songs? | | I am always fascinated with good old songs because they are wonderful to hear, full of meaning, have great melodies and soothing to the ears compare to the blasting and noisy music of present times.Every Sunday I listen to old songs because FM stations play only good oldie songs during Sundays.My top five favorite old songs are the following:
1. Let me try again
2. Walk away
3. You're the best thing that ever happen to me
4. You're closer to me
5. Stranger in the NightHow about you? | |
| | What is your favorite piece of music to play on an instrument? | | On the violin I like playing a Saraband by Handel. It is what I use to warm up. It is not too slow or fast and it is beautiful.On guitar, I like playing " Like Strangers". It is a country song I learned a while back. And I like "Too Far Gone"too. It is an Emmy Lou Harris Song.It took me a while to learn it but it was worth it. | |

| | | Twenty years opening up for Monday Night Football! | | Yes that is right! Bocephus is in his 20th season of opening up for Monday Night Football! Around 1992 or 1994,I don't reember,ABC tried having a different artist open up for Monday Night Football! It bombed after tons of fans like me complained to Mnday Night Football! I'll say this,it would not be the same if Hank Williams Jr. wasn't doing it! I hope he does it as long as he can! I love that he does it! Always will! | |
| | The Rebel Flag and Joe Wilson | | With the talk of Joe Wilson and former President Jimmy Carter calling him a racist I looked for some info on the flag because of some comments here and in the media.First some quotes from Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flags_of_the_Confederate_States_of_America"The Confederate FlagThe "Confederate Flag", a 20th century combination of the Battle Flag's colors with the Second Navy Jack's design. Actual historical flags of the CSA have become more obscure.
What is now often called "The Confederate Flag" or "The Confederate Battle Flag" (actually a combination of the battle flag's colors with the Second Navy Jack's design), despite its never having historically represented the CSA as a nation, has become a widely recognized symbol of the South. It is also called the "rebel", "Southern Cross, or "Dixie" flag, and is often incorrectly referred to as the "Stars and Bars" (the actual "Stars and Bars" is the First National Flag, which used an entirely different design).
During the first half of the 20th century the Confederate flag enjoyed renewed popularity. During World War II some U.S. military units with Southern nicknames, or made up largely of... | |
| | All My Rowdy Friends ..LOL..And To Those Who Arn't | | The above ( for those who don't know the song ) is of corse from a Hank Williams Jr. song.
But more to the point, I have missed talking to everyone here and truly appreciate that I too have been missed by a few.
Life has been more hectic than I can even describe. First was getting my Daughter into school, the Grant process is a nightmare but we 2,000.00 later we finally did it. Second thing going on, my Husband and I purchased a mobil home this month. Just a little two bedroom on a half acre that we are remodling to sell. We bought it at a great price and hopfully will make about 15,000.00 in 5 or 6 months. Thirdly, my PC tried to crash on me last night. Geeeez. That's all I need. I got "The Blue Screen" Fatal Exception thing. I'm afraid to do much now online untill I get this sorted out. My PC is kinda old, about 5 years, so I have to be carefull and need to do some updates and try a new Anti Virus as well. I may have to install a new hard drive, memory yadda yadda and start over. And last but not least, my little "adopted Son" who lives nearby is taking up a good bit of my time. He was left by his Mother at birth to live with his aging Grandparents and I guess has... | |
| | Ticketmaster Files Suit Against StubHub | | VTicketmaster, the world's largest ticketing company, has fired a major shot over the bow against online ticket seller StubHub.Ticketmaster filed a suit yesterday in Los Angeles Superior Court against Stubhub and its parent eBay, citing intentional interference with Ticketmaster's contractual rights and other charges.The suit centers around, but is not limited to, the Lynyrd Skynyrd/Hank Williams Jr. "Rowdy Frynds" tour. Stubhub has been offering "official premium tickets" to the Hank/Skynyrd tour, which Ticketmaster claims violates its exclusivity contracts with venues. Ticketmaster alleges these tickets are obtained for sale on the secondary market by threatening that future events might skip Ticketmaster buildings. "It is clear to us that StubHub knowingly and intentionally interfered with our contracts and is selling tickets to the general public in violation of our contracts, and it had to be addressed," Sean Moriarty, president and CEO of Ticketmaster, tells Billboard.biz.While both StubHub and Ticketmaster are in the secondary or re-selling game, this suit is more about primary sales. "The issue in this case is these tickets posted on StubHub for a tour were tickets that... | |
