Can be heard above the general din in the Soi. The same set list every night by some untalented arsehole shouting his way across Reggae backing tracks. He should be hung for crimes against music. I am on Diana and I can hear it blasting out until early hours of the morning. Its nothing more than noise pollution Rant over. When I stayed in VT 6 (pre covid) I could usually hear 4 or 5 bands. The bar on the corner (2nd Road) played the same songs every night. At least it was rock music. Heard "Smoke On the Water" at least 80 times. The first night of lockdown there was complete silence. I will never forget that night. I stayed up all night to see the sunrise. It was symbol to me that everything would be ok. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what happens the sun will still rise the next day. I went to sleep soon after, and slept like a baby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiFlyer Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) I have no theory as to why, and hey who needs a reason when it comes to a song they like, but Eric Clapton's "It's in the Way that You Use it" from the movie "The Color of Money" popped into my head the other night. It has stuck in said head for a few days now. Might be related to my recent life changing events (bought a house, getting married, redoing wills and other legal documents, all heightened by the car accident). I actually have a prior history with this song. It was popular when my first son was born. It helped to make me realize that my pool hustling, marijuana and coke dealing days needed to end. I was successful in moving on from that shit. It took a lot longer to begin to understand that the problem ran deeper. I was a decent divorced father, but not an immediate success as a married father. Nuff bs. Edited February 19, 2023 by ChiFlyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the time of @Yessongs posts I noticed the forum software was slow on accepting one of my posts. Quick way to check before hitting the submit button again is open a new browser tab and click Activity at the top of the forum page. Almost every time when the forum is slow, it has in fact already accepted the post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasseye Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Eyes of Silver - Dobbie Brothers Another great one. Pat Simmons about the best rhythm guitarist I've heard. He's consistently put out a ton of great music over decade. Great performer also. BTW - I just learned they will be touring this year. This is a show I would love to see. https://nypost.com/article/doobie-brothers-50th-anniversary-tour-2023-tickets-dates-prices/?itm_source=parsely-api Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
