Just fyi , playing in a cover band is harder

I will have to show you some old clips of me singing Billy Idol, Golden Earing, REM, U2, and Cure.

Here's some Simple Minds for ya

Nice!!!

I agree that the change has been very noticeable and I may be wrong on this but I don't think that I am........I firmly believe that a lot of this is coming at the suggestion of Oprah, Maya Angelou and others in her inner circle.

Remember...Oprah is in the habit of "creating" people and personas that she can push to the top.

Americans

I sure don't feel like one

Try working an 8 hour shift in a Grocery store and then go
and play 4 sets of rock and roll

At 52 your draggin when that day is done but lazy? I don't think so

Day light till dark for my old Beeeep...
Lol I do two shows a week and thats mostly weekends

We landed a semi regular gig at one of the casinos here , usually one week a month , Tue - Sat
The weeknights were not bad , we played from 6-10 but weekends
were killer doing 9-1 and then having to work the next day

It was cool for a lot of years , Did original music for a lot of years and
played the rock club route , that was murder , 4 bands a night , you got to play 45 minutes , we were good enough to get early slots so we didn't have to go on at 2 am and play to 3 drunks ,
The nice thing about those though was you don't have to haul the PA system

LOLLL I have been saying "Obama has a dream that he is Martin Luther King" I have been saying this for weeks! LOL...he's developing his ebonics! He never before had an accent like that!!!

Htilery did it also.. southern accent my er....

Wow, lots of musicians on here. I am also, I play jazz and r&b in a restaurant fri, sat and sun. Maybe we could form an ALIPAC Band! The non musicians can be the dancers!

I have noticed the same thing myself about osama obama. He seems to really be getting into it! The voice inflections, the pauses... he has certainly studied MLK speeches.

Good observation about the Oprah influence on this. I think it's a very valid one. I used to really like Oprah, but more and more I am seeing her as very much for "her"people only. Like the razas. She has the money and power to really influence and help osama.

I know this is a silly observation, but every time I see him speak, I can't focus on anything but his ears! He looks like Dumbo.

Somebody has to say it
