Something About Nothing #3..........

[RAPstar]

tammy check out those bands, killer if you like that type of music; i left out Depche Mode, ABC & might as well throw in some early Prince too

sad, the only 2 depech mode songs I know only because Tori Amos covered them (Enjoy the Silence on her cover album "strange Little Girls" and then she did "Personal Jesus" when I saw her in concert in '05). Oh, speaking of concerts, I saw Annie Lennox last yr. That woman knows how to put on a good show. I nearly knocked out the woman next to me cause when I jumped out of my seat cause the first song Annie did is prolly my most favoritest ("No More I Love You's"). No big concerts planned this yr (unless someone really good is playing at HRL when I'm in Orlando), but going to see Margaret Cho on the 27!!

An 80's girl like me! It's so weird hearing the stuff I listened to in high school popping up all over the place again. Do you like Big Country? Too bad they broke up right after they got big in the States. I liked U2 before they started going really mainstream. And Tears For Fears. I love Sting and always will. Who else in the pop world understands music well enough to write in 5/4 or 7/8 time signatures? A jazz musician who made it big EVERYWHERE. I still have several of the Cure's albums. I'll shut up now, this just scratches the surface. I love music!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha! I was looking through some pics the BF took when he came up to visit me (he's actually like an hour or 2 outside Orlando, lucky!!) and if you look closely on these pics at my laptop.......you can see me planning my UO trip!!

I love it! Can you share the plans, or would you have to kill us all?

I have eclectic taste in music , too. Everything from Tori Amos and Alanis Morrisette to Faith Hill, to Bach, Brahms, Vaughan Williams, Jane Monheit, Joni Mitchell, The Chieftains, Loreena McKennitt, everytype of soundtrack, an entire jumbo folder of choral and opera music, and the list goes on and on.

I have an eclectic music collection as well. Most people look at me like I'm making it up when I mention The Chieftains or Loreena McKennitt. I think The Visit is one of my favorite albums. Of course, I probably have 200 favorite albums...

not much to share. just came down to the flights (leaving at 9am arriving at 1pm, leaving at 8:30 arriving at 10:30 both pm), finding the right hotel (first the Hyatt Place, then Doubletree, then RPR so 1)I get FOTL, and 2)so I don't have to try to cross 10 lanes of traffic to get to the parks). Other than that it's just getting the money together to pay it off in Aug, and the for spending money. Now if only I can get my best friend to decide if he has the money to go or not (which he should, all he has to pay is plane, admission and food, i'm paying for the hotel). Oh well!!

i'm sorry. but it's all her fault. she's only done 4 solo cd's, and then only does like mini-tours. If it's any consolation, I never get to see Madonna in concert cause she never comes to TX.

I know exactly what you mean. Just be glad you're not completely obsessed with classical music along with everything else you love. I have somewhere around 1,000 favorite albums. Yes, YIKES!!!!!!! You should check out yourmusic.com to get cheap CDs. They're only $6.99, which includes shipping. You look at what they have, fill up your queue with stuff you want, and they ship you one CD a month. You can buy more if you want and cancel anytime you want. Their Christmas collection is amazing. They have a really wide variety of stuff in jus tabout every genre.

Sure, that's what all the super spies say.

Just checking in to say hi. I've now painting the hall upstairs and downstairs and the family room. After the new house looking so nice down south, I figured it was time to repaint up here. I am on a painting marathon. I can't stop because once I do and then start again, I will ache all over again.

 

[RVGal]

Well, guys, I think I'm going to convince everyone that we need an early bedtime tonight. I just wanted to come back and wish the thread a big HAPPY ANNIVERSARY again.

And a BIG THANKS to Mac for starting the best thread on the DIS!

OMG ... I really have to stop drinking coke and reading these boards ... I'm going to need a new laptop soon from all the coke spewing onto the screen!!!

Sorry about that Bonny...I don't know what came over me.

My husband has said several times, "You know you've had a good poop when your pants fit better."

At times like this I must remind myself that I CHOSE to live in the boonies for the peace and quiet. And lack of traffic. And land for the dogs to run on when they aren't sleeping on my feet. There, I feel better now. But I really must arrange a trip to the Motherland of Great Britain for an extended period of time at some point in my life. I have to visit as many places as possible in England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. Lifelong dream! Maybe I can catch a concert or two, too.

Well...good night all and should you need to visit the bathroom in the middle of the night, just think of all the waist sizes you'll be able to get into...and smile!

BTW, Mac, I hope you've got the security deposit set up for the new home. Our lease is almost up!
