I start this every year when the Pine Knob show gets close just in hopes that Jimmy will read this and finally play this song live in Michigan!

A few years back in Tinley Park, I was sitting first row and at the beginning of Math Suks, I told my sister, 'this song suks.' Jimmy just happened to look right at me as I saying that. I felt a little bad getting caught , but that song does s***.UpstateNYPH wrote:I'm sorry, he has already promised to add "Math Suks" into the set-list, and there just isnt any more room for terrible songs.

YES!! But I do like Werewolves.sonofabeach wrote:maybe he'll pay "Werewolves of London" again and follow it with "Elvis Immitators".......and then bring down the house with the "Hokey Pokey" song

Not sure if you know this or if you are a Steve Goodman fan, but as bad as "Elvis Immitators" is, there is kind of a joke about that song. It was so bad, and originally written by Jimmy and Steve Goodman, that it was kind of a dare by Goodman for Jimmy to record it. But Jimmy wouldn't "admit" it at first and said it was Marvin Gardens and crew who did it.
Ahhh Woooooo...yeah its a little weird. But so was Warren Zevon.sonofabeach wrote:the Werewolves chorus makes me cringe.HD18JBGuy wrote:YES!!

Actually I do like Elvis Immitators. It's a fun song & I think Jimmy does a pretty good King impersonation. It's one that had to grow on me.
Anybody besides me hear the opening riffs of the Kid Rock song "All Summer Long", and get ticked off because it *ISN'T* "Werewolves"??HD18JBGuy wrote:Ahhh Woooooo...yeah its a little weird.

Yes, me too. And what I find even funnier is that people think that riff is attributable to Lynard Skynard. Poor Warren...like Rodney, "no respect".Bicycle Bill wrote:Anybody besides me hear the opening riffs of the Kid Rock song "All Summer Long", and get ticked off because it *ISN'T* "Werewolves"??HD18JBGuy wrote:Ahhh Woooooo...yeah its a little weird.

As far as I'm concerned, he owes at least a co-writer credit to Warren.
