Some New Orleans style blues, maybe some Eagles for that pacing and mellow zone. Probably some dance when I am feeling pretty good. and ending with some Cat Stevens or Nina Simone.

Really loved the inclusion of one of my childhood favorites, Warren Zevon, too! Of course, the rest were great, too. This list would have me getting way drunker than I ever intended!

I knew he got arrested for DUI on a riding lawn mower (pretty badass, if I say so myself), but I had no idea he had diva ways, LOL!<br /><br />I have not had a chance to play McCarthy's list. I have looked at some of the songs, but haven't started them all in a row yet.Kim @ This Belle Rockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164994244055552994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243252197224828472.post-90521914185447988412015-03-05T17:20:05.945-06:002015-03-05T17:20:05.945-06:00My Dad took on extra job at coliseum in my city.

They called the show. If I recall, he did about three times that year - different cities. I couldn't stop laughing - my Dad sent me to the office.<br /><br />Btw ~ did you play McCarthy's list? Wow - shazam! That's some damn drinking.

Here's where I divulge a litte bit TMI: I don't hate Van Hagar - actually LOVE a good many of their songs. However? There is that overall distaste, because the band with Hagar is <b>so completely different</b> than with Roth, and I really wish they had changed the name. There. I said it. I like Van Hagar, just can't stand the thought of that lineup as Van Halen.Kim @ This Belle Rockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164994244055552994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243252197224828472.post-57608023541275002282015-03-05T08:41:47.684-06:002015-03-05T08:41:47.684-06:00You got to see Jim Morrison live? #OMGSOJEALOUS!!...You got to see Jim Morrison live? #OMGSOJEALOUS!!!!!! Those were the days! You know, that Buckcherry song and Poison song, especially back to back, do sound really familiar (musically at least). And I'm guessing you're now not a fan of poor Beck?

We've got some overlap here, in songs that I almost picked, a seemingly shared overall distaste for Van Hagar vs. Van Halen (rawr) and "You Never Even Called Me By My Name" which is the best damn song for karaoke, ever.Mari Margenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11980396545869403904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243252197224828472.post-55055052370848052642015-03-05T03:52:51.934-06:002015-03-05T03:52:51.934-06:00Love Poison.
