Wasn't Uncle Miltie accepting just about anything at that point in his career?

I'm not saying that what he did in the video was demeaning. After all, dressing up as a woman for comedic purposes is a long standing tradition. Thor himself dressed up as Freyja once. You don't get to see that in the Marvel comics or movies, though.

But the years weren't kind for Uncle Miltie & his comedy style. The guy really fell from grace.

Sometimes I wonder... is it better to have had & lost it all, or to never have had it at all? You can't miss what you didn't have. But losing everything can fuck you up real good.

Cheers!

Round and round what goes around comes around.....

Only a grade A band could get Milton Berle in drag in their video.

Or a grade B band who has his nephew as their manager...

Of course to everyone outside the US we didn't know who the fuck Milton Berle was so in the days before popup captions or the internet the video was just surreal.

It's all good. I put that knucklehead on ignore long ago.

That's classy of you, taking the high road like that.

Cheers, T!

Before this gets out of hand - at which point I'll be far, far away from this thread - let me ask you a couple of very simple questions.

The Dog congratulated your best friend & then shared an anecdote about his own past. Regardless of the time that passed between these two momentous events, why would you feel the need to humiliate C-Dog without any kind of provocation on his part? And on your best friends' kudos thread, of all places.

Neither of them got the gig. How is not getting one gig infinitely better than not getting another gig? It just smacks of unwarranted, unprovoked abuse for no reason other than maybe trying to feel better by putting someone else down.

Classic thread stalk. Clear to anyone without an agenda, CD was using the best example from his own experience to congratulate JH and comment on it being an honor to have had an opportunity to tryout (something JH basically said himself).

Shame we don't have a current minor-leaguer on the site... can you imagine the outrage if this showed up in this thread?

"Welp, auditioning last month for an irrelevant hair band from 25 years ago, and trying out with major league baseball players last week is pretty much the same thing, Mr. Rhoads....... "

Jay did something cool, but because the bar empire must not be going so well somebody else had to come along and shit on the thread.

On his BEST FRIEND's thread.

I really don't get it. What goes on in these peoples' minds? What is this need to be constantly comparing e-penis size? In The Before Time, it was alleged that certain posters started shit all the time, so the righteous force of the Blue Knights of Internet Achievement descended upon them with the mighty wrath of a thousand suns, thus making the Kingdom of Roth the Twitchy safe for little children around the world once again. And the people believed & lo, they rejoiced when they gazed upon these mighty forces of Good & Justice.

This... does not appear to be one of those cases. But hey, what do I know? I'm just an asshole.

Cheers!

Welp, taking BP 40 years ago, and jamming with platinum selling musicians last week is pretty much the same thing, Satchel.......



Hope the equipment manager didn't touch your socks......

Congratulations. I was invited to try out for a minor league baseball team while I was playing American Legion baseball in the late 70s. I didn't make the team but they were impressed with my batting skills. It was still quite an honor to tryout though.

But yes, got to play RATT songs with one of the people that wrote them (twice). YES those riffs (and solos) are fun to play.

I think non guitarists don't know how technical some of that stuff is, RATT get lumped in with the hair bands but Warren was more Jake E Lee than Mick Mars.

Another band that owes it all to CVH...

She prepped the grub while you handled the brisket? Were you ogling her while you did it or did you just close your eyes and get r done?

The latter. At our age, we are supposed to be dignified...failing that, at least give the appearance.

[lesfunk]

too bad you didn't get the gig jay. Sounds like you had a good experience and that leads to better things.

That explains why he wasn't my second set of hands at our recent BBQ cook-off competition. Here I am, asking for volunteers out the audience (wound up with a delightful young lady named Stephanie to butter the lobster and sauce the burgs) while I handled the brisket.

I was gonna but you got there first and amazed them with your fist of fury.

We took third.

Oh...and my pasta salad sucked...

Didn't you try out as the pivot man for the local circle jerk?
