Loves the drummer.

Yaar, I agree! He has great licks!

That is the gayest "black back up group" dancing I have ever seen. Wow.

(not that there is anything wrong with that!)

That's pure audio/visual marijuana.

David Letterman is a disgrace. McCain should tell him to go to hell.

Unbelievable.

McCain just doesn't understand that if he publicly told Whoopi and Letterschmuck to SHOVE IT, he'd get a 5-8 point bounce.

I'm trying those dance moves in my living room right now. I think I need more practice.

Two links, one is a funny promo of my favorite Gunny, the second is my latest favorite song from Porcupine Tree. I am really indebted to Pandora for introducing me to the group. I highly recommend Pandora.com to anyone who enjoys music! Enjoy!

Phillies fan...:-(

I just posted the Black Republican History test on the last thread. Think you'd pass? Think your friends would pass?

Great tune.
That video almost looks like two different bands with one superimposed on the other.

And Letterman is a disgrace. He went from a cool, USA-loving midwesterner in the 1980's to jerk of a northeastern libtard in the 2000's. He really changed. I can't watch his show anymore unless Chris Elliot is on.

I can see that. It's what I'll be rooting for if the Phils ph--- up again.

Arrr, Charles I was looking at my profile and it shows I have only posted three links, and I know I have probably posted several hundred links. With posting two just on this thread.....It's not important but knowing the perfectionist you are with this site, I figured you would want a heads-up on the issue. Running FF3.

Hello fellow Lizardfolk. I just posted about this on the last thread, which now seems to be dead. Today, individuals unknown vandalized both the McCain sign in my front yard and my house in an act that the investigating policeman described as "terrorism."

I have written a full report on this incident on my weblog, titled "There Is an Infection Loose in America," including photographs of the damage. All Lizards are invited to read it here:

Please feel free to comment, as well. Unfortunately (and you can see why), I reserve the right to review comments before posting them but will do so as quickly as I can.

They were my senior prom band. What a great song. I can still remember the moves...

It was me, thanks.

Just don't have the time/inclination to watch 35+ minutes of documentary on this, right now, but the first few minutes seem intriguing.

Again, if vote fraud during the primaries can be PROVEN, this would fracture Obama's base.

/So many scandals, so little time.

Is that a boogaloo or a shingaling? I forget.

Who knew you could have a hit with only two chords?

rawmuse; it's neither. At the end, they're doing the Tighten Up.

i love it. those medallion necklaces, those ankle length tapered pants,the white shoes. awesome. they tightened up. it was mellow.
and cute.

Love it!

It's unfortunate that the videos on the stealing of Hillary's votes are so long. They are well made, but few people will have the patience to watch more than the first two.

However, we need to get the word out about how this election is being stolen. I believe that the United States is in great danger now. Once we lose our freedom, it will be hard to get it back.

A lot of LGFers mention that they're glad that they have firearms. However, for those of us who live in cities such as Chicago, this is not a realistic option (unless things get really bad, but I don't think that will happen).

I was talking with my friend today about how we Chicagoans actually live in a banana republic. We have no choice regarding our city government. Surprisingly, I've always been a fan of Mayor Daley because he's really beautified our city, even on some of the "mean streets," like Ashland Avenue, which used to be quite ugly. Chicago lost its manufacturing base a few decades ago, but Daley brought it back from decrepitude, (except for the schools, which are worse than ever).

I'm surprised that Mayor Daley would support a socialist thug like Obama to take over our country. Daley always seemed like a decent leader, even though we know that Chicago runs on corrupt contracts. Daley also seems to live a fairly restrained life--he doesn't seem to be a big spender on fancy things. He seems to be very "Chicago" in his lifestyle.

But what do I know? Maybe he's got billions stashed in a Swiss bank like Idi Amin and Robert Mugabe.

Something is terribly wrong. Maybe Daley has a brain tumor.

I like their outfits....

My band just recently started doing a version of this song. I never heard it until we started working on it a few months ago. It's one of the handful of songs I play chromatic harmonica on.

GREAT song.

Reminds me of how BAD music is today.

God Bless Archie Bell and the Drells.

Archie Bell is the older brother of the late Ricky Bell.

Like dat "Tighten Up" but it no "Cupid Shuffle"! :)

Major 7th, 9th, Sharp 11th, and 13th, is more like it. Now that's hip!

Anything outside the tonic, dominant (or dominant-7th) and subdominant, I call "heavy chords." That includes things like 6th (augmented), major-7th, 9th, diminished, and their ilk. "The blues" in its original form was all "heavy chords."

To me, Ray Charles is the undisputed master of "heavy chords," with Billy Joel a close second.

Ahhh, man!

Shades of the Temps... from lo-n-n-n-n-n-ng ago! ! !

Tighten up on that organ now..................

Know the song but never saw the group. Now that I have, think they should have call themselves The Urkelettes

WOW! That was trippy.... grew up with that song in the 60's....

Shotgun !

I love that shit!

The white guys sure look like a bunch of dorks in those shirts. Is that Glenn Campbell?

I bet the guitar guys hated that song. Swaying back and forth, two chords endlessly repeated. And I thought Proud Mary was boring. I sure am glad we never covered that tune!
