    As you know I've played a lot of Waylon and Willie on here while waiting for Pearl Jam to get back in the saddle.  But I think these tunes are as good as it gets.

    I hope they give us something new to talk about soon.  Don't we all..

    Ya know these younger bands and singers that feel like they're burned out already in their early to mid-50s and feel the need to go on endless hiatuses and keep their fanbase waiting endlessly would be wise to take some lessons from good Old Willie Nelson on how it's done.

    Up in Arkansas what a laid-back groovy song.  About just chilling and being happy in your own skin and being content with who and where you are.
    I knew (of) Tony Joe White for a long time because So many other people did his songs.  Waylon, Black Crows, & Tina Turner to name a few. 
    Decided to check his material out several months ago and and wow he's really good!.
    ( I knew he must be 70ish like Pete, & Rodger, or Bobby Weir)  so I searched around to see if he's touring anytime soon, thought it'd to be fun to see him.   turns out he died last October at 75.  So I guess not.  But he's got some neat rockin and groovy tunes.  So I feel like I missed out on that.  Just discovering him & his music now.  A little late to the party I guess,,,,,,Oh well.....

    Good question, RYME. 

    SVT.  cool early 80's San Francisco band that only last a few years.  I just got into them this year.

    Hawkwind.  Lemmy's early days band.  Long past their prime by the time I got into them about 4 years ago.

    The Ramones.  I like a few of there songs earlier on but didn't become a huge fan until the early 2000's.

    I don't know if this one counts because to me, they are in perpetual hey day, but here goes: I had read about Dinosaur Jr in Michael Azarrad's excellent book Our Band Could Be Your Life.  I listened to a few things and decided I didn't like them and never gave them another chance.  But then I came across an inexpensive CD of Where You Been and after a couple of listens, they grew on me.  And then I was hooked- big time!

    Probably others I can't think of at the moment.


    Would be cool to hear about others of yours, RYME, and anyone else who's in.

    I'm still blown away by Glen Hansard's performance on Thursday night at the Old Opera in Frankfurt!

    I just have to share it here! It was just excellent in every way!

    There are not many videos on Youtube and the songs might not be for everyone but this one here definitely shows a bit of his passion:

    This guy made my feelings jump up and down with his performance and it was hard to keep sitting on that chair sometimes! :lol:

    Well I have a friend Martha Berner. She should have had no problem making the mainstream.  She's from my hometown Williams Bay.  She had a good start had a good fanbase going, was getting some airplay in Chicago small markets. But then just kind of petered out. She doesn't have a website anymore that I know of, and I don't know where she went last I knew Colorado that was at least 9 or 10 years ago.
    But 13 years ago, I thought she was on her way because she was featured on a Madison Morning Show.  She was on Morning Blend around the same time.
    So here she is with Down and Out in San Francisco the NBC 15 Madison's Morning News

    And here she is on the Morning Blend with
    A town called Happiness
    https://youtu.be/yi60eaAb5hg
    So wherever you are Martha,, cheers

    I've always liked to Roy Orbison but never got into it.
    So I've been digging into all of his material lately.  And its just so good.  I'm 42 so he passed on in 88 before I was old enough to know anything about music.
    But what a treat that would have been to see this in pearson.
