Hey all you fuckers born in the late 50's

[johnnie]

Jackson Browne is on PBS. And I remember you all liked Todd too. What a great generation you all are.

[madeline_con]

1. Todd? You mean Rundgren?

[johnnie]

2. That's the guy

I just remember "Todd..Todd..Todd". from all the shits a few years older than I.

[orleans]

18. "todd is god" (or at least he was for awhile there) n/t

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. My dear johnnie!

You mean us fuckers born in the 40's can't watch too?

:P

:rofl:

[madinmaryland]

5. Jeebus, Peggy. I'm stuck watching some guy talking about heart attacks

and erections!

BTW, you dropped the f-bomb!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. LOL!

Of course I dropped the f-bomb! I was just copying johnnie, silly!

:rofl:

[av8rdave]

22. Would that be "us fuckers" or "we fuckers?"

I always had a hard time with that part of grammar.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. My dear av8rdave!

I believe I said it correctly: us fuckers! LOL

BTW, Happy Father's Day to you!

:hug:

[av8rdave]

27. Thanks, Peggy!

I hope Mr. CaliforniaPeggy has a great Father's Day!

[madinmaryland]

4. WTF? We have some guy talking about heart ventricals and

omega fats.

:wtf:

:hi:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

7. PBS programming

differs from region to region.

Here in the DC area, there's something about economics on WETA right now.

But, someone just showed me this, speaking of Mr. Browne:

[Quantess]

20. Thank you for posting that link.

That was worth watching.

[enigmatic]

8. My first girlfriend worshipped Todd Rundgren

I had to listen to that damn "Can We Still Be Friends" song about 1000 times on WMMS before she'd let me kiss her...

[johnnie]

9. LOL

He was such a thang here,

[enigmatic]

10. Oh, I know

It seemed like he played the Agora every other week in the 1970's...

[kath]

12. Ahh, the Agora...

another ex-Clevelander here...

[enigmatic]

13. I have to admit, I miss the orginal Agora

Saw some great bands there, but I probably spent more time downstairs at The Pop Shop in the early 80's, too...

[Ikonoklast]

24. Saw Bowie at the Agora, along with Iggy Pop.

Rode in Hank LaConti's Rolls once, with a few of my pals.

Long story.


Spent a lot of time and money in the old place, and was worth every cent.

[WCGreen]

33. I saw him with Roy Buchan (sp) and Pure Praire League out at

Nelsons Ledges...

[enigmatic]

37. Of course after I posted this

I have that damn song as earworm!

[kath]

11. Don't think it was on here, but I LURVE Jackson Browne.

Would loved to have seen it. Was it a recent concert, or an oldie? Who else was there?

[Quantess]

14. What did Jackson Browne do?

At first, I thought it was this guy, but no he's from the '70s:

[Skittles]

15. calling me a fucker, johnnie?

I WILL KICK YOUR ASS

[Adsos Letter]

17. Skittles....

You certainly must have been born later than the 1950's... :D

[Skittles]

19. nice save there, Adsos Letter

naw, I'm a 50's child and I'm still kicking johnnie's ass :D

[6000eliot]

16. Just turned 50 last week.

I love both Jackson Browne and Todd Rundown. Loves me some Utopia, too.

[cwydro]

21. Love Jackson Browne.

and Todd.

[peekaloo]

23. I had a crush on him in high school. (yes i am a fucker of whom you speak)

Ah, he was such an old soul in a young man's body. So full of wisdom, poetry and cocaine. :P

[kath]

32. "old soul" - JB, or Todd

Don't know much Todd Rundgren at all, but LOVE JB - he has written some really amazing stuff, some of it starting at the age of 16 or 17, which would certainly fit with your "old soul in a young man's body" characterization.

[peekaloo]

39. Jackson Browne

:-)

[Graybeard]

25. He played the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz.

One of my guilty pleasures is The Wizard of Oz In Concert (1995).

Dorothy played by Jewel
Scarecrow played by Jackson Browne
Tin Man played by Roger Daltrey
Cowardly Lion played by Nathan Lane
Wicked Witch played by Debra Winger
The Wizard played by Joel Grey
Glinda played by Natalie Cole

They are all great, especially Jackson Browne.

[scubadude]

28. Not born in the 50's, but close, Todd I love, JB not so much.

The one exception from JB is that song about alternative energy sources, I think it's called Warm Power of the Sun.

Scuba

[Gormy Cuss]

29. Don't take that tone with me, young'un!

Here's my favorite Jackson Browne:

30. Seems like all those amazingly cute busboys I worked with....

(in those days, that time) where all about this guy's music, too...

"Bridge Of Sighs"....Robin Trower

[tigereye]

31. saw a little of that yesterday - looked pretty good

:hi:


who you calling fuckers? :rofl:

[A HERETIC I AM]

34. There was a book that came out in the early '80's titled "Real men don't eat quiche" in which....

the topic of what kind of music a real man listens to is addressed.

Paraphrasing, it went something like this;

"Real men don't listen to Jackson Browne because no real man wants to listen to a prima donna, millionaire, no talent asshole complain about how tough his life is on the road."

[hellbound-liberal]

35. Going to see JB on my 51st birthday, Aug. 4 in Charlottesville!

:bounce:

[edbermac]

36. We got Jackson Browne; you got Britney Spears.

Spin that on your turntable, punk. :P

[Mr. Ected]

38. I loved the original version of Take It Easy, by JB

I think he and the guys from the Eagles either shared a house or lived next door to each other in the early 70's. He gave them that song. The rest is history.
