5 Musicians You'd Love To Talk With

All 4 Beatles
Merle Haggard.

I wonder if he’s innocently referring to the scifi movie Hot Tub Time Machine, since time travel would be called for with his picks. But I haven’t seen the movie, so I might be way off-base. .

Time to size up them britches, buddy.

I hope you can snatch him from a time when he could still hear you.

I was sort-of thinking of the movie, but I too have never actually seen it. Only Dolores O’Riordan would require a time machine (an earlier draft included Kirsty McColl, also deceased).

Sorry if it came off as sexist. I totally wouldn’t want to try and talk with Shane McGowan, Ronnie Wood, Lemmy, Tommy Lee and Keith Moon, in or out of a hot tub.

I think I met Susan Tedeschi once, at Fatt Matt’s in Atlanta. It was after her set and she was vaguely annoyed that I didn’t know who she was (but was otherwise quite pleasant). This was before she toured with Lilith Faire and met Derek Trucks.

Ukelele Ike, you should know better than to respond to a moderator warning with snark. You’re first post was out of line, and your subsequent ones even more so. Knock it off.

First, allow me to apologize to Chronos for the errant “fuck off” and subsequent sarcasm.

In my defense, Chronos and I have a long history of interaction here, which has always been cordial, chummy, and mutually respectful. I presumed I would be given latitude for a friendly “fuck off” (It’s a thing. It may be a New York thing, but it is definitely a thing). Nothing in our past would lead to a reading of an angry and deliberately offensive “FUCK OFF!!”

The britches comment was an impulsive reaction to the unfriendly and (mildly) sinister reprimand. I’m famous for my fiery, quick temper, as we all know.

In any case, warning acknowledged; apology offered; and I promise to limit harsher profanity to the Pit.

That must be a New York thing, because I’ve never heard of “fuck off” being cordial.

Well, I grew up in Cleveland myself. Maybe I hung out with rougher crowds — mostly sailors, lumberjacks, whores, and professors of literary theory.

In any case, I shan’t do it any more. Can we be friends again?
