Meanwhile, Back in the Dead Zone

Ho hum, the Bay Area loses two game 7’s in the span of 6 days. One can hope that the Giants continue to chug through the season and keep their even-year dominance intact. Johnny Cueto and Madison Bumgarner are certainly holding up their end of the deal.

Other than that, not much to report in the wide wide world of sports.

    I’ll take the Cat Stevens concert I saw at the Oakland Coliseum Arena over ten Huey Lewis concerts any day. Boy George? LOL, V, you’re on fire!

    Niners Theme & Jed’s Song (this is from the same tour, right before he became a Greek monk)

  2. I must say I really enjoyed that Cat Guy. I think I remember him through my parents reminiscing their times during the Woodstock days. My dad especially was so angry at this guy named Cat when one day put down his guitar, left all the hot chicks screaming for him, cash and all the fame any man could want, for a Turban, Islamic Dress and the responsibility of shouting “Praise be to Allah!” on every street corner, is this that guy? What a loser! This is one of those 70’s Singers and Songwriters guys singing about peace and love crap, right? They could remove that whole decade from all of our memories and no one would care.

    I like new wave synthesizer bands like Tears For Fears, can we post some of those videos of my high school days to make this place fair and balanced? The duo re-formed in 2000 and released an album of new material, Everybody Loves a Happy Ending, who doesn’t like those?

    I hear some people crying for Alex Smith and forgetting that neither Smith nor Kaepernick are ever going to be anything more than game managers on their best days. They both choke when it matters most! Kaep is still screwed up in his head from his child hood! has to many off the field issues and like Smith doesn’t care if he wins. Even Jerry Rice says Colin Kaepernick sucks and he’ll get Jim Harbaugh fired! He was correct in his assessment.

    Screw that. The ’70s had a lot of great music.

  4. This was the only song I liked from the 1970’s. I’m sure you all remember, Crank It Up!

    The 70’s were something.

    What happened to Jeff S. last night? What the heck? Anyone got some answers. Come on Chuck give me a loud BLEEP! That game sucked big time.

    Nice. That was s little before my time. My first dead show was around 1978. Oakland auditorium.

    Funny, I just listened to Fragile last week. Great album.

    Well, V, The Village People was a gay band, which I know bothers you. So here’s a song from the ’70s I know you’ll like, from a band as straight as any you’ll ever find – the singers were two hetero married couples.

    Oh well another Giants loss at home…….BOO HOO! Giants need help in the pen.

    BTO’s reply to Fragile . . .

    2nd concert I ever saw. 1975.

    Might be s little too racy for v…

    A’s shit can the Giants again. Giants look inept. More injuries. Sniff……..

  14. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Right. If anything the Giants need pen help. SDome of these inured guys should start filtering back soon. Romo is on the mend. We’ll see how that goes. An elbow injury for a slider pitcher is tough to come back from.

    Bum tonight. Perhaps a win if they catch the ball tonight. Yikes!

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Huh. Phil has gone completely around the bend. Bakkenbullitt is living in a parallel universe where we actually went after people in free agency, and V is inhabiting a kinder, gentler nom de plume. For the time being. . . . . . . . . . .


    turn out the lights

    what a great fucking band. lots of bands made their mark on certain cultures like the Airplane, the Dead, guns and roses and so on. But, for around 2 years the Doors were the band they had everyone locked into their music. Doubt anyone will see that happen again.

    Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Attention K-Mart shoppers!

    Training camp starts in precisely 1 month. 30 days and counting…

    Back to football at Kezar. Who’s going?

    Yeah, Winder, there hasn’t been a band before or since that has created such an incredible depth of emotion in just about every song. Haven’t listened to them in a while and now I can’t stop.
