  2. It's been really cold lately for Georgia, so here's a little warmth...

    "Girls In Their Summer Clothes"--Bruce Springsteen

    Well, the streetlights shine down on Blessing Avenue

    Lovers they walk by, holding hands two by two

    A breeze crosses the porch, bicycle spokes spin 'round

    My jackets on, I'm out the door

    And tonight I'm gonna burn this town down

    The girls in their summer clothes

    In the cool of the evening light

    The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by

    A kid's rubber ball smacks

    Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light

    Big bank clock chimes

    Off go the sleepy front porch lights

    Downtown the stores alight as the evening's underway

    Things been a little tight

    But I know their gonna turn my way

    And the girls in their summer clothes

    In the cool of the evening light

    The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by

    Frankie's diner, an old friend on the edge of town

    The neon sign spinning round

    Like a cross over the lost and found

    The fluorescent lights flick over Pop's Grill

    Shaniqua brings the coffee and asks "Fill?" and says "Penny for your thoughts now my boy, Bill"

    She went away, she cut me like a knife

    Hello beautiful thing, maybe you could save my life

    In just a glance, down here on magic street

    Loves a fool's dance

    And I ain't got much sense, but I still got my feet

    The girls in their summer clothes

    In the cool of the evening light

    The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by

    The girls in their summer clothes

    In the cool of the evening light

    The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by

  3. Oh, snap! I used to love/hate that song! I'm off to find it...

  4. Sadly, I also had tickets to that tour, and for various reasons ended up quite out of it and I don't remember a thing from that show, other than asking, "is this intermission?" when the roadies were breaking down the stage.

    That's the last time I ever did anything like that at a show! :blush: :doh:

    Another concert then? :)

    The best concert ever for me was Neil Young in Sydney, 1989. Me and my two best friends missed out on tickets and we were devastated. So we decided to go to the venue and sit outside and at least try to hear him, drink some cheap wine and feel sorry for ourselves.

    So there we were sitting outside the doors, so upset at what we were missing, when about half an hour in, three very drunk women came stumbling out of the doors, yelling out that Neil Young sucked, walked up to us and just handed us their tickets! We couldn't believe our luck! It was such a great moment.

    So we ran in and Neil was still doing his acoustic set, which was just amazing. His voice is even better live. Then he pluggged in and I can honestly say I've yet to see a better concert. We couldn't believe those women walked out on it, but I'm so glad they did. It was one of the best nights of my life!

    I have vertigo too by the way. It's called benign inner ear something or other. It's pretty debilitating when you have an attack. When you stand up the room starts spinning around like you've drunk half a bottle of scotch. Not a good feeling. :)

  5. Sister Christian--that's a great one. I have the acoustic version. :ooo:

    I'll add:

    Forever--Kiss (ok, a bit treacly--but Beth's already listed)

    Love Bites--Def Leppard

    Mainstreet--Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band

    Lights--Journey

    Two Out of Three Ain't Bad--Meatloaf

    BABE--Styx
