The History of Rock

Rock was invented by Hughie "Longtool" O' Mahony, of Ballinspittle, Co. Cork, in 1873. He was spotted out on Whelan's bog making love to a sheep to a syncopated four-four beat. "Jayze, boys, I'm gettin' jiggy wid it. This sheep feckin' rocks", he was heard by a passing milkmaid to moan in a deep sonorous voice later falsely claimed to have been an innovation of Leadbelly, the famous goat-rustler.
The Whelan Nocturne (or Sheepy-Sheepy-Shag-Shag as it later became known) caused youngsters to tear up seats in their village cowshed, such was the frenzy it caused.

honestly say that this is the first time I've heard that, if you really want to talk about sheep
take a closer look at Christopher Columbus and his crew, but neither have anything to do with rock-n-roll
music.....btw rap or hip hop as people call it ain't rock-n-roll either.

What happened to the fellow in love with making music? :geek:
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

Remind me not to do humour here in future ....
Can I say that I DID notice that the names were humorous? I just thought you sounded upset to be making a joke like that. :?
meaning, if I have offended I do apologize,I am guilty of this offense from time to time.
