This one should get your blood flowing today.

Classic. 

"I am a band geek. I just never joined the band."

 

[Shawn-O]

Screw SNL and the Ferrell / Walken skit.  This is the quintessential rock and roll cowbell song.

Need a @MafiaManruling here:

The Top 20 Songs the CIA Used to Torture Inmates 

I think the CIA has some clean misses on that list:
- no songs by The Carpenters or The Osmonds 
- "Baby Shark" 
- nothing by German band Rammstein

This is what happens when a Christian rock band gets trapped in a studio during a pandemic with a Bee Gees LP and Gloria Gaynor's phone number.

Who knew @MafiaManwas a closet "Billy and the Boingers" fan? 

(I knew them as "DeathTongue", before the name change.)

Anita Pointer died at age 74 on New Year's Eve. 

In memoriam, everyone "Jump" and do the "Neutron Dance".

Earth Wind and Fire's prodigy drummer Fred White had died. He joined his brothers in the band at 16 (started drumming professionally at 15). 

The man sat in back his whole life; today he gets the spotlight.

Adding a few to the collection this morning. Billy Squier... One of my all-time favorites.

Saw this band in concert this past summer. Papa Roach was at the Alerus with Falling in Reverse, Hollywood Undead.

Little known facts of the 1980s:

- @Blackheart and @MafiaMan went by the aliases Daryl Hall and John Oates 
- privately they changed the chorus of this song from "I can't go for that, no can do" to "I can roll with that, let's go Sioux"

What we are looking confirmation on is that the saxophonist in this video is @burd.

I thought that was you, @Oxbow6, @MafiaMan, @burd, and @Goon.
You broke up then ... Hell Freezes Over.

Sax is too cool for burd to even try.

I heard he deleted everything for room for Taylor Swift songs...

[MafiaMan]

Not surprised, the scallywag

The video at this point (press play) will have @MafiaMan "distracted" for a while.

 

[The Sicatoka]

Foreigner lead man Lou Gramm turned 74 yesterday, or as @MafiaMan calls him, young man.  

 

Side note: The song is one of the best examples of slide bass from the 1980s.

After the references in the FB thread look what I found in the @MafiaMan playlist.
