3 day old reply but immediately after reading your comment I figured maybe you weren’t familiar with the Beastie Boys “Stop That Train” from the Paul’s Boutique album. Around 0:55 they can be clearly heard full-naming Mr. Goetz.

Or maybe you’re a fan and never realized you had heard him called Bernhardt? Anyways cheers

If this is a highlander situation my money is definitely on Goetz.

And that’s when Chubby Checker hits you with The Twist.

Bob Dylan probably doesn’t have long, lol
Show threadfunkless_eckDec 29
judging by his recent gigs, he may already be gone
Show threadChickenLadyLovesLifeDec 29
My “recent”, you mean the last 50 years?
Show threadMinnesotaGoddamDec 30
yeah, i was in austin the same time he was recently. everyone was goggling about going to see him and were you going to go see him? I was like, for the $400 they’re asking i can watch a tape. i saw a mid-80s year old buddy guy a few years back and while as a guitar player it was a really technically interesting concert, he hardly played any songs. he mostly imitated other greats who have died and had been influenced by his style. like, cool you can play like stevie and jimi but i came to hear you dude. buddy was only $20 a pop so it was still a great concert. I was not going to risk that at $400 a pop.

“buddy guy” is not the same as Buddy Guy. If you think capitalization isn’t useful, here’s an example of where it is.

That’s wild, I could’ve sworn he was dead already.

Ages 84, 84, and 78, respectively.

I wonder when all of U2 died, though… hadn’t heard anything about that.
Another for the AI slop pile. Maybe ppl shouldn’t just ask AI a question to create this bullshit articles, eh? If I didn’t have an ad blocker active I would feel cheated by reading articles like that.

Powers died back in '77.

You know it’s not the band U2 in the song, right?
Show threadPorrnyDec 30
You know you are wrong on that one, right?
Show threadtheyoyomasterDec 31
Bono wasn’t even born yet when the U-2 shoot down incident happened, which is also where it is placed chronologically in the song.
