We have another winner!
Man, I hated this group possibly more than any thing that came from the eighty's.

this is a GREAT example of why you cant judge a video by its still frame. i was expecting something else..................................something I might like.
Punched a guy out at a party one time for hassling this lady I worked with. She was so grateful that she asked me to take her to see Elvis at the Cow Palace in San Leandro, CA. She had two tickets and I guess they were hard to come by that close to the show. This was less than a year before he died.
I wasn't an Elvis fan then, nor am I now, but I agreed to go with her and he put on a great show that night. He came out in a white suit, all fat and sweaty, but worked his butt off on stage.
Two odd things about that night: 1) there was this guy standing right next to Elvis the whole show handing him scarves. Elvis would wipe his face with a scarf and then throw it into the crowd. The women would dive for the scarf while clawing, biting and punching each other. 2) They sold wine at the show that night. Every other time I'd seen a show at that venue they had guards practically strip searching you to to see if you had drugs or booze on you. RIP Elvis!
I actually stayed a night in Elvis' suite at the Sahara Tahoe when I was a kid. That's where the Carpenters were playing (my mom and dad brought me the autographed picture of Karen and David). We were staying with artist friends who were friends of the owners. What a HUGE funky suite. I think I was about 14 or 15 and had the run of the place. It had a huge, red, heart shaped tub and IIRR a big round red bed. Never met the King but my sister got to see him when we lived in LA. She said he put on a hell of a show.Punched a guy out at a party one time for hassling this lady I worked with.

Great Story! Elvis at the Cow Palace. How appropriate. That place was a dump, but man, every big act played there back in the day.

true story...way back when (31 years ago) I won tickets to an Air Supply concert...let me tell you those 2 tickets got me laid by 4 different girls in one week wanting to go to the concert with me. Ended up giving them to my older sisters boyfriend the day before the concert...told him to take her since her birthday was in less than a week.
Every once in awhile Shakira puts out a song that just drives me wild. Check out her and Rhianna's video Can't Remember to Forget You and you'll know what I mean.
You're just saying that for shock value - aren't you. :eek:This is bad. But, Justin Bieber's latest album was produced really really well.
I find that she is quite amazing once I find the mute button on the TV.Every once in awhile Shakira puts out a song that just drives me wild. Check out her and Rhianna's video Can't Remember to Forget You and you'll know what I mean.
