Thought of the Day - Music related

[mikephillips]

I have to admit to listening to a lot of stuff from today back to well before I was born. Some of it comes from my folks when I was little I think. But I also listen to Taylor Swift, Pink, Ed Sheeran and many others that came along after I was an adult. Can't manage HipHop, but I have mellowed towards Disco from my high school and college years...

There was a teenage kid who worked with me.He had a Datsun
pickup with a canopy on it,When he turned his stereo up,all you could
hear was the Bass.
I told him "Why don't you just get your buddies to ride in the back,
and bang on the sides of the canopy?"
I was surprised that he thought that was funny.

There's a lot of GREAT Canadian bands - just that Nickelback ain't one of them! (Full disclosure, I do have a couple of albums of theirs in my collection.)

 

[AngliaGT]

And you admitted that IN PUBLIC?

 

[Basil]

And you admitted that IN PUBLIC?

I didn't say I listen to them (much)! The two albums I have are from 2010 and 2013. "Best of Nickelback" - "One of the world's shortest books. Like The Wit of Margaret Thatcher, or Great English Lovers." (Falwtly Towers fans will get it)
