1. here's another obvious poster child

[Shakespeare]

2. Wave your hands in the air like you don't care....

Favorite R.E.M. concert moment from years past was watching Michael Stipe do a dead-on impression & cover of this song.

3. everybody says

When you hear the call youve got to get it underway
Word up its the code word
No matter where you say it you know that youll be heard

I love his voice soooooo much.

[Beware the Beast Man]

5. I've acquired a new fondness for "Candy"

Ever since I started playing GTA: San Andreas.
What few people know is that they were a full-on, Parliament style funk band before they went pop in the 80's.

10. tastes like canday

I love that song! I was just thinking about that one.. and my favorite - She's Strange.

Didn't know it's on GTA... isn't there a QOTSA song on there?

[Beware the Beast Man]

11. No, because this particular game is set in 1992.

Pre-Queens.

[redqueen]

13. Doy

Well one of those popular gamey things has "In My Head" on it... I think that's gonna be on their next release... in March... on the 22nd... that's 83 days from now.

4. Years ago in Miami I was in a club restroom...

Looked over next to me and there was Larry Blackmon takin' a wizz... Big Hair and all... Word up...

[RandomKoolzip]

6. What people don't remember is that Larry Blackmon used to be a great

drummer. Seriously. Go check out some early Cameo and be blown away.

12. Like I was saying above,

They were hard funk before they took a commercial turn.

[Droopy]

7. Have y'all heard the cover by Korn?

What's your take on that?

[Beware the Beast Man]

8. Don't ask.

:puke:

[SheepyMcSheepster]

15. lame attempt to make money off someone else's previous hit.

but then again, lots of bands are copying the "korn" sound these days so they may have justification.

[Merrick]

9. Ahhh Yeah

Yo! Colin C-Note Powell is at home! Ruff Ruff!

[nine23]

14. Was there another tune called "Back and Forth" on that album?

I forget the exact title...great tune. I think it was the last track on side one. (I actually have this on vinyl - hence the "side one" - but most of my vinyl is packed away because of all the space they take up...)

[SheepyMcSheepster]

17. yes

i never owned the album but i guy i used to work with brought it in a few years ago and we listend to it non-stop for a few days.

16. All you sucker deejays who think you’re fly

There’s got to be a reason and we know the reason why
You try to put on those heirs and you act real cool
But you got to realize that you’re acting like fools
