Friday and the Random 10 (Life is Just a Fantasy Edition)

Oh man. Not a lot of time for talk. Too tired. Working the holidays at Disney sucks. Enjoy some music:

Friday and the Random 10 (Football is Back Edition)

You all know I love me some baseball. The pennant races are heating up as the season is winding down, but wait? What is that on my TV? Is that college football I see? Is it time for my beloved Crimson Tide to start its march for (hopefully) another national championship? Yes it is. Booyah!

It also means that fall is coming, and hopefully, soon enough, cooler weather down here. The temps down here are still in the 90's with the first Not So Scary Halloween Party three (!) days away. Yes, I said three days. As in Monday. Happy Labor Day ya'll, now give me some candy.

With all that being said, let's get down to the real reason we are here. Looking back at last week I see that RW and The Beatles got banned. Let's see if I am right about my Tarkus prediction.

As usual the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top. Time for the kickoff!

Friday and the Random 10 (Gloomy Weather Edition)

I know a lot of yall out there have more reason than I do to complain about the weather but c'mon Florida! Yes it was 84 degrees a few days ago...in February...but two days later it's in the 40's?!? And today its dark and gloomy. Be consistent already! Ugh!

You know what is consistent? That's right, Friday and the Random 10! Looking back at last week, I see that Kansas gets a weekly ban and The Moody Blues get to take the whole month off. Will the Tarkus arise for the first time in 2014? Inquiring minds want to know...

Friday and the Random 10 (July 5th work hangover edition)

Well here we are again, trying to recover from celebrating America. Some of us had parties and barbecues, the rest of us are hung over from working so much since so many people just HAVE to go to the Magic Kingdom on the 4th. Blah.

As usual the rules are over there → to the right. If you don't like this post, then you don't like America.

1) AC/DC/Rocking All the Way - These guys always make my summer soundtrack.

2) REO Speedwagon/Little Queenie - More good rock and roll, retro style.

3) The Little Mermaid/Happy Ending - And then that happened. Mood killer.

4) Little River Band/Take It Easy on Me - Now that's better.

5) Michael Jackson/Sunset Driver - Yeah, I aint ever heard this one either, but he does his "whoo" and "hehe" a lot.

6) Red Hot Chili Peppers/This Velvet Glove - Yep.

7) Yes/Heart of the Sunrise Def Leppard/Release Me - How this is on the Hysteria deluxe edition I'll never know. And I'm tired of live Yes songs.

8) Motley Crue/Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) - Album cover winner

 
9) The Beatles/Dig a Pony - I will come right out here and say the Beatles did some pure crap at times.
 
10) REO Speedwagon/How the Story Goes - Another classic oldie from them. Unfortunately, it gets them banned for next week.
 
Well there we go. REO gets banned and I'm just plain tired of live Yes songs. The STCS for this week is Korn/Twist. Blame Tabitha for that one. I hope your holiday has been rockin'!
 
Play us out Crue!

Friday and the Random 10 (05/24/13)

Ugh! Finally a off day after going back to work and all that blah blah blah. Great to see all my old coworkers though! And my off day falls on a Friday? How convenient! As usual the rules are over there to the right → so let's dig into my somewhat eclectic music collection and see what the gods of randomness reveals. Looking back at last week I see that Jimmy Buffet is ineligible. Maybe I should keep a running count? I dunno. I keep tweaking my own rules. Anyway, on with the show!
 
1) Van Halen/You're No Good - From the good ole David Lee Roth days
 
2) Jon Anderson/Far Away in Baagad - You know, sometimes I have no idea what the hell JA is singing about. This is one of them.
 
3) Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe/Fist of Fire (alternate version) - Ok, yeah this is from my #1 desert island CD. Yes, the one from this pathetic relationship story. Imagine my surprise years later when I find out there were alternate versions of some of the songs and even songs left off the album entirely (good ones too). I think the most telling thing about the whole situation was that there was going to be an ABWH II album that never materialized. It makes me feel like there was potential there for that relationship to continue, but forces stopped it from happening. Yeah, I read a lot into things...


4) The Little Mermaid/Fathoms Below - Er, ummm, yeah this was downloaded for my girls. Yeah, that's the ticket. Look away now. Nothing to see here.
 
5) The Beatles/While My Guitar Gently Weeps - Classic. Nuff said.
 
6) Joan Jett & the Blackhearts/Fake Friends - Never heard this song before, but I like it. You got nothing to lose, you don't lose when you lose fake friends. Nice. New one for this list too.


7) Korn/Killing - Blame Tabitha for this one.


8) Korn/Y'all Want a Single - And for this one too. At least the are banned from next week now.
 
9) The Mahavishnu Orchestra/Jazz - This is some of that late 60's, early 70's fusion stuff I was looking into. I tried them out because I noticed Jon Anderson always mentioned them as in influence in interviews. I would have sworn they have made the list before but I guess not.


10) Styx/The Grand Illusion - Just not that version. This is the re-recording from their Regeneration CD. So no DDY, just Lawrence Gowan singing his parts. Me no likey. Don't mess with the originals.
 
So a little bit of everything this week. A few newcomers, Korn gets banned, and you learn a little more about my obsession with ABWH. The STCS for this week is Lynyrd Skynyrd/What's Your Name. Not bad. No doubt who's playing us out this week:
