Glad to hear that things are somewhat normal in some places. Rumor had it that some business owners were able to get to their places this weekend to do clean up and prep for reopening. It's going to take some time, but NOLA will rebound--with all the spirit surrounding it how can it not? I've never ...

If i could write off the cost of the donation over the retail value, I would consider it. Well, that is if I could afford to consider it....... I love JB and I would love to support Katrina victims, but that kind of money is all sorts of out of my league........ But, I hope it makes it to at least $...

Well, I have lots of thoughts, tons of comments, a few arguments, but frankly, I'm tired. I can't even begin to imagine what all the victims (I HATE the word refuguees, they are VICTIMS in my book) are going through right now. At this time I would rather focus on helping all these people move forwar...

now that's down right clever! Never made the connection, but it would definitely add a sense of wonder to the state JB was in as he wrote that line :D

I was one of the lucky ones who bought several copies of this when it first came out.

I'm not interested in money for it, but for bartering some nifty stuff you may have.... I am not ...

Carolina Girl, is it jst like in the song? What doea the writting actually say? When we saw it in '87, it said "I ate the last mango in Paris, I took the last plane out of Saigon, I took the first fast boat to China, and there's still so much to be done." (No Jimmy in the line, that's the...

If you are willing to pay, Ebay usually has that stuff. Most of my stuff was "gifts" from bars that we schmoozed as we drank. Of course, some things were "destiny" and came home with us as we drunkenly took them in what we truly believed was a smooth operation :lol: But anyway, c...

They have them at our Meijer stores in Michigan---but they are about as much as a concert ticket!!! $7.95 for the shrimp entree which serves 2 according to the box. (I guess I'm two people in disguise!!) Haven't seen crab or calamari yet, but I'm cheap so I don't check them out that often....

my issue isn't with him since he really can't control who comes to the concerts. But if it were up to ME, people would have to take some sort of a test to get tickets to concerts. I'm fed up with getting stuck with lawn seats cuz tickets sell out so fast, then having to get bumped into by youngins w...

I have the CILCIA cd like that. I can't tell the difference in sound, but bought it since this is my favorite CD. Didn't get the other one since I already had it and there didn't seem to be a large enough difference to make me buy another one.

I've seen him at least once every year since 1986. That was back in the day when you could just walk up to the venue the day of the concert and buy a ticket. Can you even imagine that???? Yeah, you could just go get a ticket. Now I am part of the "Thin Line Crew" who are a bunch of PHeads ...

Well I heard that the "demons" that parted Fingers and Living Soul are the similar "demons" that parted him with CRB. Too bad, but sometimes you gotta get your own life in order before you can move on.

God speed to him and hope he makes it this time.....
