Need help - I have 2 Questions

edited June 2008 in The Porch
I want to be a more enlightened PJ fan and I have 2 questions that keep popping up in my brain.

1. In the tour photos I see pictures of an old guy with long hair and a beard. He's note pretty enough to be an age regressed picture of Eddie when he's that old cause Ed will be gorgeous forever (but it could be Mike as an old fart). But if that's not who he is then who is he and why is he always on stage.

2. In the pit people often reply "bump". Is that an agreement? or an f.u.? If I use it I want it to be in the right context. Along that same line, if there are any other handy one word phrases that have expanded meaning, feel free to educate me.

Thanks a bunch!!!
And if there's something you'd like to do. Oh, just let me continue to blame you.

    "bump" just means that you are bumping the thread to the top of the list. After someone replies to a thread, the thread is moved to the top of the list, underneath the stickies

    1) Boom Gaspar. Keyboardist since 2002.

    2) Bump = "I want this thread to rise to the top and be seen as recently modified so other users will notice it, because it has been inactive for several hours/days"

    You've heard the real usage, but I think it would be cool if it was an "f.u." like you said. You know, like "Bump you!" or "Shut the bump up, motherbumper."

    And if there's something you'd like to do. Oh, just let me continue to blame you.

    You like that one? I always enjoyed "Who you bump" from No Code myself. Especially the Chopped and Screwed remix by Lil' Wayne.

    I thought that old guy was Dick Cheney in a wig and contacts after a visit to the tanning salon.
    So this is what it's like to be an adult.

    Bumper Boat Captain
    Lyrics by BinFrog Vedder

    Is this just another post, in a god forsaken thread?
    First comes text and then disdain, let the flames begin
    People bitch and people moan...unbelievable

    Bumper Boat Captain
    Take the thread and bump it towards the top
    It's already been bumped, but it cant be bumped enough
    All you need's a bump

    Is this just a bit more spam? Oh, Morons making waves
    Trying to shake the useless threads, from turning into hate
    Once you find a real good thread...it's all so worthwhile

    Posting; it's what makes this board,
    Then when you post 'bump' it goes up,
    Cause to the original poster it means everything,
    and there's just one action I still believe
    and it's bump

    It's an art to live with spam, the bad posts mixed with good,
    Lost 5 threads to the abyss, last post - 2 months ago,
    And if our threads do grow too long, will the mods put a lock on them?

    And the newbs they can lost hope cuz they can't see their threads
    The wisdom jaded vets can give away
    Hey
    Constant dupe posts
    Sometimes threads
    Don't leave you alone.

    Posting; it's what makes this board,
    Then when you post 'bump' it goes up,
    Cause to the original poster it means everything,
    and there's just one action I still believe
    and it's bump, bump, bump, bump, oh!

    *Ripping guitar solo*

    Bumper Boat Captain
    Take the thread and bump it towards the top
    It's already been bumped, but it cant be bumped enough
    Bump's are all you need...all you need, is a bump
    Bump
    Bump

    answer to question 1 - it's Boom, but a million people have told you that already. he plays the organ....i think the best song where he gets the most recognition is Crazy Mary on the Live at Benaroya Hall album...:D and if you hear what sounds like 'boo!' it's actually "BOOM!!' :D;)
