Watching the Allman Brothers Live at the Beacon dvd - been a while.  It sounds fantastic ... 

I have two or three DVD players, a bunch of good music shows (including that one) and I can't figure out how to hook up a DVD player to one of the TVs. Weird because I was able to set everything else up. I even got one smart TV to work on another TV which is NOT a smart TV. 

Think I need a niece or nephew to figure this out.

 

I have multiple players too, one really odd thing. The cheapest by far I paid maybe fifty bucks for. It works fine and will even play PAL formatted shows with no problem. The more expensive Blu-ray types won't. I Dont Know

Been listening to a fair amount of the original Fleetwood Mac lineup lately. Good stuff.

Someone where we used to live threw away this machine that plays DVDs AND VHS. I still have some cool VHS tapes, mostly concerts. I haven't tried that one yet but I bet it will work. Seems to me people were trying to convert VHS tapes to DVD a while ago. No clue how to do it but I bet Sang might know how.

Remember those things that I believe were called "Dual Discs" or something like that? I have a couple. On one side is a CD and on the other it's a DVD. If I recall they lasted a hot second.

By far my favorite version of the band. Last night THB put on a 70s playlist and a Bob Welch song came on, I think Ebony Eyes. When that came out I had no clue he was in Fleetwood Mac at one point.

In probably 1993 or so I saw "Fleetwood Mac". It was horrible. Mick and a bunch of people I had never heard of. One (at the time) being Dave Mason. He sang Dear Mister Fantasy. Never knew at the time of a connection to Steve Winwood.

I should try to pick up some of their old stuff.

I would highly recommend Blues Jam in Chicago Volumes 1&2 for early F Mac.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooood 'ol World Whisky Day!

The spelling begs a question: Where is the "e" after the "k"? Whisky or Whiskey? Who's to say?

Yes indeed ... there are some reasonably good Bourbons and there are some reasonably good Irish Whiskeys ... but there are some very good Scotch Whiskys ... having said that, I personally prefer a good Carribean Golden Rum ... each to his own ... Cheers!

With my low carb, low sugar diet, I drink a lot of bourbon now instead of beer (still drink some beer when I go out).

Now down 43 pounds ... and quite a few pants sizes ... may need a whole new wardrobe ... maybe I can fit back into my Yellow Rat Bastard shirt ... Laughing Out Loud

One of my best rounds today - was even par after 12 holes (2 birdies, 1 double bogey).  Fell apart for 3 holes, ended up with a 36-46=82.  It was fun!

Hope you can do it! Chad and I had so much fun finding those things and getting them to you guys. Speaking of, is he still around?

I hope you can proudly wear that shirt to the Mule show in August!

He doesn't really visit the site but yes he's still around. We get together either at his place or ours a couple of times a year.
