Arthur2sheds replied to maximum jack's discussion Perfect Pop Songs."I believe this meets the criteria. Pretty much a perfect song IMHO.
"
Arthur2sheds replied to Jon Bard's discussion Songs I Never Want To Hear Again"I remember being shocked when I heard REM's "It's the End Of the World...." on the Chicken Little soundtrack. Weren't they once at the vanguard of alternative/college rock?"
Arthur2sheds replied to Jon Bard's discussion Songs I Never Want To Hear Again"I grew up just outside of Windsor, and listened to WRIF, WABX and WLLZ way too much. I remember loving WCSX when it first debuted just because its playlist seemed so different. Stations obviously tend to put a lot of emphasis on regional/local acts,…"
Arthur2sheds replied to Jon Bard's discussion Songs I Never Want To Hear Again"Reflecting the common sentiment, not bad songs per se, but ones I've heard enough for one (probably two) lifetimes:
Bob Seger - Old Time Rock and Roll
Eagles - Hotel California
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
Beatles -…"
Arthur2sheds replied to Andy Hartley's discussion Some of the best gigs you've been to"Bruce Springsteen - I've seen him several times, but the best was the pilgrimage a friend and I made from Toronto to Giants Stadium in 2008. It was pouring rain the day of the show, and it looked like it was going to be a miserable experience…"
Arthur2sheds replied to Nancy R. Lichtenstein's discussion Best Angry Songs"My song of choice the day I became a downsized journalist:
"I Don't Wanna Hear It" - Misfits"
Arthur2sheds replied to Jon Bard's discussion Good artists you just don't "get"...."Here's a couple of sacred cows I can't stand:
The Doors
Sorry, but I just can't stomach Jim Morrison and his quasi-mystical poetry. I kinda like songs like "L.A. Woman," but then it goes into that whole "Mr. Mojo…"

Arthur2sheds replied to Jon Bard's discussion Is there a better feeling than "I cannot believe I'm seeing this?!?!?""The one that really stands out was seeing former Television guitarist Richard Lloyd at a small club in Toronto about five years ago.
There were perhaps 20-25 people in the audience, when he comes out - barefoot and appearing completely smacked out…"
Arthur2sheds replied to Mike Glowacki's discussion What is the best era of music to come out of Michigan? in the group Michigan Rocks the World"I grew up listening to Detroit Radio in the late '70s/early '80s, which meant a steady diet of Seger, Nugent etc.
One band that I really loved was The Rockets, who had a devout regional following but never really gained much of a fanbase…"

Anna Borg's blog post was featuredI totally met Michael Nesmith and I didn't pass out
So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up. The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt. And, being a woman/girl of a certain age, I have a favorite and that favorite is Mike.…See More
