    This should really crush Doro. He has a great passion for dancing around the house in assless chaps to the classic tune "Sussudio."

    We'll hook you up at Polkfest Mark, don't you worry Brutha!
    No excuses!

    No....
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    As soon as he bank account dips below a certain threshold and as soon as the record companies offer a substancial amount to come out of retirement he will anounce a new record or tour.

    Works for me.

    I remember when the local radio station promised a "no phil collins weekend". It been the rule aboard ever since.

    I would rather wear a pair of really scratchy, Icelandic wool pants, on a hot steamy August day, than listen to that clown.

    All I have to say is it's about time :cool:

    No big loss! I haven't played my Genesis "And the Lamb Lays Down on Broadway" CD set for many years. Maybe it will be target practice this weekend in honor of this news :p

    In 1986 when we first bought this place, my brother-in-law gave me a blow-gun for a housewarming gift. It had awesome steel darts and I used a Wayne Newton album cover tacked to a piece of 3/4" plywood for a target.

    Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is an awesome album :( If you don't like it, feel free to send it to me... I'd be glad to take it off your hands.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    Finally! I was genesis last year and when they encored with "I can't dance", it was time to leave. The show was ok, but nothing worth talking about.

    One of his songs is in GTA IV.
