Re: Bands named After People Not In THe Band

This is lifted from Pablo Cruise's Wikipedia page. "Initially there were many fans left wondering who Pablo Cruise really was. When asked the question the band, which is a quartet, said " " he's the guy in The Middle" " When asked what Pablo Cruise meant the band would say, " " Pablo represents a ho...

Re: Bands named After People Not In THe Band

If you open it up to count fictional people Uriah Heep. Molly Hatchet (supposedly she was a 19th century prostitute who used to behead her customers. That isn't good for repeat business.) Babe Ruth (around in the 70's, I don't know a lot abut them.) Walt Mink (they were an indie band in the 80's who...

Bands named After People Not In THe Band

Can anyone out there think of any bands named after people who are not in the band. For Example: Jethro Tull (inventor of the seed drill) Danny Wilson (80's pop band I don't know a lot about) Marshall Tucker Max Webster, (friends of Rush) April Wine (just kidding but I bet there is a person out ther...

Arrow And Good Place Series Finales

Among the many shows ending in 2020 are Arrow and The Good Place. Arrow ended last night and The Good Place will end tomorrow evening. Did anyone out there watch or plan to watch these finales? I thought Arrow was really good, very emotional and elegiac. I missed Felicity and it was good to see her ...

Re: Evolution of Cable TV Channels.

TCM, which began in 1994, has always been pretty much the same, (though a lot of people on it's message board would disagree.)

Re: Porn on billboard

They caught the people who did it. I think they were High School kids, (that does sound like a High School prank.)

Re: Evolution of Cable TV Channels.

[quote=Turkeytop post_id=592969 time=1579058259 user_id=8801] Strange isn't it how some of these channels seem to lose their way and forget their original purpose. One example is HLN. It started out as a legitimate news channel. Now it's the crime channel. And what's happened to CNBC? Seems now it's...

Ed Orgeron

I just started watching the CFP College Football National Championship. Has anyone noticed that LSU coach Ed Orgeron sounds a lot like Dick The Bruiser?

Re: Seriously WTF?

I'm not sure if I should start a new thread or add to this one? Due to the Passing of Neil Peart has there been an increase of Rush on Detroit radio? I'm not just talking about rock stations but any stations, (especially Canadian ones.) The only thing I've noticed is that during the NFL playoffs I h...

Re: Seriously WTF?

[ That's incorrect. Early REM was definitely played on AOR FM stations, including the 3 where I was employed. "The One I Love" debuted on WIOT long before CHR ever touched it. I am fairly sure it was in our "E" catagory at WHTQ when I was there as well. I always considered early REM there first thre...

Re: Grim Reaper Rock you to Hell

Lust For Freedom was part of the soundtrack of a Z movie of the same name that used to show up of USA's Up All Night. (That show was not a cool as Night Flight but good in it's own way.) Grim Reaper singer Steve Grimmet lost part of his leg a few years ago to an infection he caught in Ecuador. I thi...
