Trey, it almost time for a vacation with my older brothers with our motorbikes. One day, you will have to join us.

You have previously been informed that I do not “vacation.”
Now I am letting you know that vehicular travel is dangerous enough when you’re seated behind the motor (or in some cases, in front of) with a seat belt to retard the physics of sudden forward acceleration…
That said, you’re a good friend for offering. Take this GIF as a token of my appreciation and warm fuzzies. ❤️
@InUnfunky @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @JoyfullyDazed @Mfieck
No vacations? Home in the rear view is always awesome. The only thing more awesome is your own bed upon return!
@CinnamonGirlE @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @JoyfullyDazed @Mfieck
Yeah, I wasn't a lot of fun as a kid, Cinni.
And it was soon discovered that -- for the sake of everyone -- better if I was just left at home.
Some books, my guitar, some Frosted Mini-Wheats. I'd be just fine.
🤓
@InUnfunky @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @JoyfullyDazed @Mfieck
Hey, I am a homebody too. I really am. But I do enjoy escaping every once in a while. It gives you something to be excited about!
@JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Dear Ex --
I'm sorry, but I couldn't resist.
Are you taking offense on behalf of Cinni?
Nice!
Speaking of Honorary Masshole-By-Marriage Jenny From The Block, have you seen the latest? Bixie didn't tell me about it and I'm still wikkid pissah mad.
(looking at your next reply that just popped up, lol, see esp. this commercial 😆)
@InUnfunky @CinnamonGirlE @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Yep, for my sister, Cin. 💖
Of course I've seen it, born and bred, Dear Ex.
Matt cracks me tf up. 😂
@JoyfullyDazed @InUnfunky @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Thanks Lisa! 💕
Be nice Trey. 😉
🤣😂
@JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Heh, lulz.
Hey Cinni --
Wassup with that kissy face AVI? I just saw it...🤔 😂
@InUnfunky @CinnamonGirlE @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Yeah, Cinny, what's up with the kissy face?
@JoyfullyDazed @InUnfunky @Bix @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
I didn't remember, but now do, that Trey only has a couch to his name. I am sorry Trey. I will be nicer. And I really was just sending love back. 😊
@CinnamonGirlE @JoyfullyDazed @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck
Come on, Trey has a Swedish automobile.

Good morning!
Trey, in 1980, Sir John Johns, The Red Curtain, Lord Cornelius Plum & E.I.E.I. Owen heard this song and formed The Dukes of Stratosphear.

Why are you telling me about the Dukes, Bixie?
As for Holsapple and Mitch Easter, I dunno…

"Power PC: Big Alfred Dynamite" must like Big Audio Dynamite.

I have the 1st two Big Audio Dynamite CD's. Nowadays, I never spin them.

I suspect you have more media than time to listen to it all.
@Bix @CanisPundit @InUnfunky @CinnamonGirlE @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire @Charles_Hawtrey
I can't see what record you're talking about bc the post you're responding to is filtered for me.

From reading the liner notes, The dB's first single (1978) was written by Television's Richard Lloyd.

Television, oh my another set of memories
@Bix @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
I don't remember this one but I really miss that era, right before MTV came in and made your looks more important than your musical ability.

I've listened to The Jam's songs so many times that now I go back and soak up their demos.

I'm not crazy about that one, it is reminiscent of Motown, to me that's the antithesis of British pop.
@Charles_Hawtrey @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
But Paul Weller loves Motown / soul. At the end of The Jam, he wanted turn it into a soul band.

At the end of The Jam, Weller wanted turn it into a soul band. Rick & Bruce didn't want to go that way, and Paul broke up the band.
I like The Jam's soul music better than Weller's The Style Council, which came next.

That doesn't do much for me either, sorry. 😂
@Bix @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
Yeah, I knew that, he should have stuck with his very original style instead of doing bad imitations of American soul music.....don't hit me! Please!!!!
@Bix @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
He ruined that band. Curtis Mayfield is great but.......
@Bix @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @InUnfunky @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
This is a really good one.

Remember driving around with my buddy Chuck and singing "I'm just a guy in the house of pies" during the outro 😆

Oh, Bixie!
You’ve found the other Holsapple/Easter fan!
Here, that is.

One day — after “getting” “the dB’s” and “Let’s Active” — I will gladly eat crow. 👍🤓
@InUnfunky @BrentSullivan @JoyfullyDazed @CinnamonGirlE @CanisPundit @evamarie @Mfieck @UmbaSaffire
Note, I love Mitch Easter's production work better than Let's Active.

A great CD of weird NYC pop music, The Scene Is Now – The Oily Years (1983-1993). I looked for the band's stuff because The dB's Will Rigby was in it.

The music is too angular to be very popular, Discogs: The Scene is Now is a New York City-based avant-garde jug band. But, I like it.

C'mon Bix, it's a very fine automobile. Date nights were a blast...if you like sitting in a car on cinder blocks.
