Thank God.
I can think of no band more aching for a "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide" than Supertramp. :puke:

4. you know..i think you must be a gay man
trapped in a woman's body.

last spring, i "road tripped" with three friends and all they listened to was supertramp, david bowie, and some weird japanese chick who clearly has a helium addiction.

8. Ziggy invented the mullet...
He was the original in the early 70's... it took the rest of the world 10 years to catch up, by which time Bowie had moved through at least three other hairstyles...

9. Did we date right after High School in the late 70's?
Edited on Tue Jul-20-04 01:19 PM by XNASA
'Cause if we did, I remember dropping by your Mom & Dad's house one Summer afternoon and you were listening to the same stuff back then.

I mean that in a nice way. :hi:

14. A friend commented about my musical tastes, said I was missing...
...all sorts of good music.

Which after a weekend of listening to that 'good music' I realized I wasn't missing a thing.

My album purchasing trends usually are like this: The band has to be around for about 5 years producing excellent rock/alternative style music for me to even consider it. To give you an example - I never bought Alanis Morisette's first album "Jagged Little Pill" until 3 years ago and it came out in 97. Now she's one of my favorites.

I figured if the music stands the test of time it's good enough for my book. BUt I also listen to WXPN from UPenn which has great alternative/college oriented music that I will skip the above procedures (like Damien Rice)

18. Everybody's missing out on something.
I was actually referring to a specific incident that I remember quite fondly and as I recall, both of those albums were part of the, uh, festivities.

Funny how those things get stuck in one's head.
