How does this comment reinforce your theory? In what ways does it undermine it?

I heard the White Stripes "Icky Thump" on the radio for the first time when I was driving to lunch. I had to wait in my car for a few minutes to wait for it to finish, because I liked it so much.

In related, important news, Bonaroo is going to be streaming this weekend: http://blueroom.att.com/events/bonnaroo.php Now would be the time to get your speakers on your computer fixed.

Speaking of...does anyone know the origins to the name "Gatorade?" Because it's not made of alligators.

Oh if only a highly respected semi-retired sports announcer could tell the tale set to a catchy 70's tune. Maybe "Summer in the City."

I actually know the answer to this but need to edit and find cite.

I bel. it was developed by a school with Gators. If I google it it will come

Yup I was right. Florida Gators and here is a cite

Brian May had some of the worst rock hair of all time. And the post-Freddy band hit the road with Paul fucking Rogers. In. Defense. Able.

I do find "Killer Quean" randomly stuck in my head from time to time.

You also like the Ramones, though. I have nothing against the Ramones. But I don't like them either.

That's not it. It was originally made from alligators. Just like Coke was originally made with coca leaves, and Dr. Pepper was originally made when a podiatrist fell into a vat of root beer.

You pompous bastard.

Yes, they were absurd. But they could fucking play. You had a killer guitar player and an amazing singer. When they played simple rock stuff, they were amazing. Ever watch that Live Aid set? Fuck. They blew everybody off the stage.

And Freddy got everybody backstage as well.

Yes, they could play. But they weren't no Patti Smith.

I'll give you a pass on that one, but only because you eventually came to your senses re the Clash.

Anybody have strong feelings one way or another about Lucero?

Ah, too much of a priss for Queen?

I think you just need to get with current faux-sophisticated Eurotrashy music . It's come a long way since Queen.

And if you go, say hello to Flower.

I'd go to that show. I even know what pants I would wear.
