@KTrain939913 Now we know where Gaga got her look from Respect to Terry Bozio 🥁

Random Song of the Day Words Missing Persons live -1983

@KTrain939913 Gunslinger song! Original title was Last Night from the demo days, w different lyrics!

Random Song of the Day Hang ‘Em High Van Halen live -1982

@Super70sSports Liked them from the beginning. Unfairly grouped with the grunge acts

Stone Temple Pilots don’t get enough love. Yeah, I said it. They never have, frankly.

@JustRockContent FW is Eddie’s best guitar work

“Mean Street” - Van Halen Fair Warning: Peaked at #5 on the Billboard 200; certified 2x Platinum in the US, though it was their lowest-selling album of the David Lee Roth era at the time.

@KTrain939913 Van Halen‘s management put in their contract that they were not to be paid less than the highest paid act other than them. David Bowie was offered and accepted 1.5 million which upped Van Halens price. Smart.

Today in Rock History May 29, 1983 Van Halen headlined the US Festival’s Heavy Metal Day at Glen Helen Regional Park in San Bernardino, California. Performing before a crowd exceeding 375,000 fans, the band delivered songs like “Unchained”, “Runnin’ With the Devil” and “Ain’t Talkin’ ’Bout Love”. Notably, Van Halen was paid a record-setting $1.5 million for this show, a fee that garnered significant attention at the time.

@damone_mike Great song Elvis Costello did all the backup vocals on Tempted as well

Black Coffee In Bed Squeeze 1982 Fun Fact: Paul Young and Elvis Costello backing vocals

@Super70sSports Since VH 1 was already taken I’m going with this

Name an album that has nothing but above-average songs. One “skip” track and you’re disqualified. I’ll start:

@Super70sSports Agreed. Doesn’t count

Combined no-hitters are just 0-hit shutouts to me. I can’t get up for it.

@Atomic_Hogg @Super70sSports No. This was during the 78 Tour, Gene discovered them in 76

@Super70sSports Is this in sunny Southern California? 😂 I think later that night was when Gene Simmons "discovered" them at the Starwood Club in West Hollywood. 😉

When you’re runnin’ with the devil, sometimes you need to stop for a McMuffin just to keep up with that son of a bitch.

@LauraKatieMama @Super70sSports Me too…except for the lust part 🤗… there was nobody better than Eddie and nobody cooler than Dave

@JoelStrassman @Super70sSports Interesting that you post a VH clip since MM co wrote I’ll Wait but didn’t get a writing credit until years later

Michael McDonald is the GOAT backup vocalist and that’s a hill I’ll die on. He’d come off the bench and hang up triple-doubles on other people’s records. Legendary.

@JudgeReinhold HBD close talker!

If I've gotta be older to fully appreciate the love of family and friends and the beauty in life - bring it on! Thanks for all the birthday love ! #thursday #grateful #birthday #may

Name a sports figure who wore glasses in competition. I’ll start:

@JustRockContent Great song…Stan Lynch always sat in the pocket well…good drummer 🥁

“A Woman in Love (It’s Not Me)” - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers from their fourth studio album, Hard Promises. Billboard called it the “most dramatic track” on the album, praising Petty’s emotion-filled vocals and the guitar punch.

@JustRockContent One of the many songs that reminds me of my childhood in the late 70s!

“Lonesome Loser” - Little River Band Peaked at #6 (their third Top 10 hit) on the Billboard Hot 100. Hit: #3 in Canada, #19 in Australia. It became one of their string of late-’70s US hits alongside tracks like “Lady,” “Reminiscing,” and “Cool Change.”

@crockpics New Way Home is way underrated. Also I think the Australian release of this record had the cover of Baker Street

Foo Fighters released The Colour And The Shape, May 20, 1997. Favorite track? Track 3 is titled Hey, Johnny Park! but there is absolutely no mention of anyone named Johnny Park in the lyrics. Johnny Park was actually a childhood friend of Dave Grohl. They had completely lost touch over the years, so Grohl named the song after him with a very specific goal: he hoped Johnny would see the album tracklist and call him. The tactic worked perfectly. Park heard about the song, reached out, and the two old friends finally reconnected. SeeTracklist in Comments 👇️

@BeccaC78 @damone_mike Me too 😜

@damone_mike I’m still at a loss as to how the Yankees lost 2 out of 3 to them this past weekend.

@dougjamesm @FastbreakHoops5 Me too. His shot was awkward AF 😂

@FastbreakHoops5 I Imitated Bill Cartwright all the time. The other kids laughed.

Who's the first NBA player you tried to imitate at recess?

@TheStingisBack I see this n think “east bound down loaded up n truckin..”

Smokey and the Bandit turns 49 today. If it weren’t for a space saga from a galaxy far, far away, it would’ve been '77’s biggest hit. Burt Reynolds starred, but Jackie Gleason flat-out steals the movie. Now, gimme a diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper, ’cause I’m in a goddamn hurry.

@Vic_Issitudes @TheStingisBack Cuz he’s thirsty, dummy

@TheStingisBack Don't forget Big Enos and Little Enos!
