If you don't get it, look it up before you comment.

That is awesome! Is that really him? Looks like I need to do some googling.

Yes. Notice that he plays left-handed? I saved hundreds of photos when I did a "Rock" wall last year in my living room and remembered that one. There was a great documentary on him, but I can't remember the name.
Rock wall photo submitted for your approval MetalFan :)

I totally approve, two thumbs up! I am jealous! I see Stones, Beatles, Zep, SRV, Bad Co (my first concert, Desolation Angels tour). Well done!

...and ZZ and Dire Straits and Santana and some Blues singers for good measure. I learned quite a bit about my favorite bands. I didn't realize just how extensive the British Invasion was, like...who knew that Bad Co were Brits??? I always thought they were southern rockers, Lol! Where did you see them? That had to be an incredible show!

Jimmy was a member of the 101st Airborne Division too!
MC Hammer,.. Jerry Garcia,.. Ice-T,... B.B. King,.. lots of country songers... ALL veterans!

Totally kidding, although the evil man guy was.

Big thanks to ALL veterans and those currently serving that sacrifice for and protect our freedoms!

AMEN!!

All Along the Watchtower was written by Bob Dylan

Thanks Spurs! Check the libtroll below! I am not taking the bait, but his comments get me points, so I have that going for me!

He was DV as soon as I saw it... what I don't get is how they get ANY UVs unless its an alt. You have another troll commented on here,.. hiding his shit. Screwed with me big time. I'll share later! This meme is still rocking!!!!

thats pretty good

As an Army CAV vet, I'm gonna go ahead and say what my brothers and sisters in arms can't; We're actually tired of being the World Police. We want to actually...uh...protect AMERICA. Not be forced to do the bidding of cowardly politicians in DC, who wouldn't even consider going into battle...or sending their children.

Upvote :)

Perhaps it's war and what it does that she hates.... Perhaps Jimi Hendrix also protested against the suffering caused by wars....

Machine Gun Lyrics - Jimi Hendrix
Machine Gun
Tearing my body all apart

Machine Gun, yeah
Tearing my body all apart

Evil man make me kill ya
Evil man make you kill me
Evil man make me kill you
Even though we're only families apart

Well I pick up my axe and fight like a bomber
(You know what I mean)
Hey! And your bullets keep knocking me down

Hey, I pick up my axe and fight like a bomber now
Yeah, but you still blast me down to the ground

The same way you shoot me down, baby
you'll be going just the same
Three times the pain,
and your own self to blame
Hey, Machine Gun

I ain't afraid of your mess no more, babe
I ain't afraid no more
After a while, your, your cheap talk don't even cause me pain,
so let your bullets fly like rain

'Cause I know all the time you're wrong baby
And you'll be going just the same
Yeah, Machine Gun
Tearing my family apart
Yeah, yeah, alright
Tearing my family apart

(Don't you shoot him down)
(He's 'bout to leave here)
(Don't you shoot him down)
(He's got to stay here)
(He ain't going nowhere)
(He's been shot down to the ground)
(Oh where he can't survive, no, no)

Yeah, that's what we don't want to hear anymore, alright
(No bullets)
At least here, huh huh
(No guns, no bombs)
Huh huh
(No nothin', just let's all live and live)
(You know, instead of killin')

Not really, you confuse being a vet and willing to do what is needed for your country with love of war. While sure there are some that do, most don't sign up because they are bloodthirsty savages but because they love their country and wish to serve it. Viet Nam was an awful situation from the start and continued under 3 presidents. It screwed up a lot of people there and at home. It should have been a reminder of so many things when the need arose again.

Well said John, thanks!

Any time I can stick up for vets, THANKS to you and the rest of em on here!

I am a vet

Then I thank you for your service. I had upvoted your 1st comment and then the second appeared. It seemed to have underestimated the ability of the veterans who had already spoken in this thread, to appreciate the lyrics and the context of their creation. If that was not the intent, I apologize for misunderstanding but I do stand by the parts of my comment that followed my assumption of your perspective.

I don't hate them I just think they're miss guided for the most part. Jimi Only served in the military, becuase after he stole a car, he was givin a choice to either got to prison or sign up for the army, and he choose the latter.

yes! so well done. bravo!

i hate jimi hendrix

Wow. I'm stunned to know there's someone who hates the military. Tell me more

I am sure there are many who hate the military and they have that right. I tend not to hate those who allow me to keep my freedom, but that's just me.

As a liberal, and a person who tends to browse political forums, I've never seen a liberal go against the military.

Trust me (as someone on the inside), they do, but not publicly, and always while telling us they are doing something good. The worst part is that we get told our opinions don't matter (and that we also aren't allowed to talk about them publicly, I skirt the rules here because this is an anonymous forum and it is understood that any opinion I express here are my own and should not be taken as an official statement from the agency that I work for).

I've seen both side reject the military. But more from progressive liberals.

Amen, Spurs!
