Yep...High School was Sunny Hills High!

Gwen Stefani went to Loara High School...lived 3 blocks from me..and went to the same church as we did. I know her brother Eric.

Here's another trivia question...what is Eric famous for other than No Doubt which he helped found?

Re: Name your top 5 favorite bands
 

The Simpsons.

I believe Eric's influence to start No Doubt was based on his liking of Ska music (The Specials / Madness).

Re: Name your top 5 favorite bands
 

I told you my list would be like that...

I have met Chris Isaak on 2 occasions. He is really cool. He usually signs stuff and talks to people after his shows. Haven't got a photo though. I have been fortunate enough to meet quite a lot of artists that I like (I guess a perk of liking these obscure bands). I have a bunch of signed CDs and such... Only photo I have is one of me and a guy called Mick Karn. Pretty influential bass player I have followed for many years..

I should dig out my stack of concert tickets. How bout listing them and further confusing Ken.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: Name your top 5 favorite bands
 

1 Springsteen/ Legend, played in Latrobe
2 Gary Moore/best blues guitar player
3 Van Halen /best rock guitar
4 The Cult/ One of my favorite vocalists

Re: Name your top 5 favorite bands
 

I think Dick Clark said it best."Music is the sound track of our lives".I think it was magnified during the 60s. A lot of us reached our young adulthood then. It was a tumoltulous time, and the music kinda bound us together. There was a war going on, and much of the music reflected the mood. I can't choose 5 songs, but I'll give you 5 artists, and a few songs.
John Kay, and Steppenwolf: Born to be wild, The pusher, Monster
Credance Clearwater Revival: Run through the jungle, Greenriver, Suzy Q
Jimi Hendrix:6 turned out to be 9, Along the Watchtower, purple haze
Crosby Stills Nash, and Young (or without Young) Ohio, Woodstock, Sweet Judy blue eyes
Beatles: Pretty much everything, especially early stuff, and Revolution
Special mention:
Janis Joplin/Big brother and the holding co.Piece of my heart
Ten years after:Goin home
Country Joe, and the fish: The fish call
Zeplin: Whole lotta love
I miss the 60's. I expect every generation misses the time they were young. But to be a teenager then was something very cool. With the exception of Nam which tended to divide, and galvanize us together.
The only thing that I see today that I wish would have been around then is thongs to go with mini skirts. That woulda been just damn awsome. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

#1 Beatles (Best ever and enough songs to last for years)
#2 Metallica (This will be great when my hair grows real long)
#3 AC/DC (Can't imagine not bringing them along!)
