I haven't seen Deliverance all the way through either. I've seen another similar movie titled Southern Comfort which was very good. Urbanites getting revenge on rednecks, must've been a whole genre in itself back then.
It's been thundering since 4:00pm today here, all the storm cells went west or east of me, until now (9:19pm). Two lightning bolts just hit....make that 3, just hit within 50 yards from the house, shook it good, too! Yes, summertime in Atlanta! :)
Actually my 'glory' years were the '90s, from my mid-twenties to mid-thirties. The music was good, had lots of friends, and I could drink whatever I wanted and have no problems at work the next day. Nowadays? Now if I want to go to a mid-week concert I have to make sure I get the next day off. Music is still good though, at least what I listen to.
Point being these 12 year olds had no clue what they were saying, because nothing they say was correct, either! No, your a receiving clerk and very good but overpriced beer drinker (not saying the beer isn't good or worth it, but wouldn't it be nice if it was as cheep as........Old Milwaukee?). Lol. :). Jerry's guitar playing was definitely one of a kind! :)
Well, okay then. :) If the beer was as cheap as Old Milwaukee I'd be dead drunk all the time. Pete Townshend had a quote on the back of one of his solo albums: 'finally thanks to Remy Martin Cognac for saving my life by making the bloody stuff so expensive'.
Cool! Yea, after Jerrry died I went to see "The Other Ones" show (The Grateful Dead minus Jerry) here in Atlanta, while chilling out listening to the show these two 12-13 or whatever year olds were talking back and forth about how much they loved Jerry, I looked at them and said to them "WTF do you know about Jerry? Your f**king 12 years old!" (That shut their annoying conversation up quickly!) Well, looking around me I saw a shitload of kids just like those two, the amphitheater was full of posers, I haven't really listened to them or seen a show since! I believe you can see where I am coming from! As a purist, I cannot take fakes!
"Man - what was up with that old a$$hole???" :) Were you being the meanie, Evilmandoveil? Eh, I know what you're getting at, but 12 year-olds can appreciate a guitarist who has kicked it; I mean, how many musicians have you appreciated that were in the ground before you were out of you training pants? Now if they were affecting a snooty voice and trying to lord it over you I can understand, but hopefully you didn't come off as a snob. Hell, I went to one show, have a few albums, but I'm far from a Deadhead and I LOVE JERRY GARCIA'S GUITAR PLAYING!!! Am I a poser? ;) ;) ;)
Evilmandoevil was a Deadhead!!! Coooool. :) I have a friend in his late 60s who was one in his youth. Didn't follow them everywhere but can regale me of tales of shows in the Northwest in the '60s and '70s. I saw them at Autzen Stadium at the U of O back in the mid-'90s; I think it was the last show in Oregon before Garcia passed. Enjoyed it but got a blistering sunburn on one side of my neck due to the sun setting on that end of the stadium. :P
