I drive about 10 mph faster when born run comes on.

fucking 'dad rock' blows.

I believe dad rock is just above "Trust Fund Hippy Rock" on the rock sub genre pecking order.



This is my favorite Bruce Springsteen song:

the 'tri-state' is strong, in this thread.
all you 'blue collar', working class heros.
wranglers and white tennies, rock on dads.
get bent

[Tippster]

Based on what I saw at Dwar Jerry there are a shitload of Dads listening to the Dead... me being one of them.

I'm actually more of a four corners guy. GFYS.

Oh yeah baby! And what a guy - quite the philanthropist.

Ah - thought your point was that those great artists aren't the music of Dads (or Grandparents.) They clearly are, but hopefully at least some 20somethings are still listening to them.

I saw Buddy Guy two years ago. I'm 28, and haven't fathered anything that I'm aware of.

Where I ski the music in the lodge and at the base during the week is usually pretty cool--often blues, but on weekends it seems to be full on dad rock--the hits of the 70's and 80's. Of course there was some great music back then, including the hits anyone with a brain is sick of by now, but those hits are all that get played.
It does surprise me when the lifts ops are playing 60's stuff on their boomboxes. I still like that stuff, which means it wasn't just the drugs.

Saw him at Ocean County Comm College in '74 opening up for the Coasters. Fuckin' rocked then and still does today.

Well brice618, what do you think about the last 10 years and do you have any wisdom for us now that you&#39;re 38?

Dude, when are you gonna learn to stop using apostrophes?

[old goat]

Well KQ, we could step on the gas and wipe that tear away.

[half-fast]

We’re the same sad story and that’s a fact
One step forward
One step back

[ötzi]

hey how come half-fast gets to use apostrophes?


I figured this thread for a Core Shot reboot but it seems like he may not realize were back on the air yet

[Full Trucker]

Absolutely! And the Clash, Joy Division, X, Nirvana, Public Enemy, Nine Inch Nails, the Pixies, the Police, the Smiths, Social Distortion, the Screaming Trees, and, and, and I'm out of breath.

Read somewhere that Vans have replaced New Balance as the unofficial "Dad Shoe" so this list tracks as being current Dad Rock. And remember kids, it's not Dad Rock becuase your dad listened to it, it's Dad Rock because you're the dad now.



BTW, I also get to use apostrophes.

[AdironRider]

Not a huge Bruce guy, but there are few that can outperform and IMO the best love song ever written https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYHGh6lmSbo

Im still pissed at myself for not asking the guy hanging out by the Natty Boh tent for change for a nickel. He had that look about him. Turns out it was Tippster. Where ever you are these days other than here, I hope you are well. Catch ya next time.

So NB changed the lasts they use for their shoes and they no longer fit me. None of them. Wrong shape and no longer friendly to Fred Flinstones. It turns out that Nike probably lifted the tooling from their dumpster and the Nike Air Monarch is a pretty close copy of the NB 60x variations. So that's my Dad shoe. Vans don't fit me right. Toe box isn't wide and square enough.

[XXX-er]

I thot the Bruce looked pretty sketchy standing unshaven in that leatehr jacket on the album cover but nobody has to shave anymore and i would like one of them jackets so Bruce was ahead of time


Bon Jovi like to record at a studio in Vancover so they could hang out in the peeler bars on skid row, the album &quot;Slippery When Wet&quot; was an homage to the shower stall in #5 Orange Street,


the same guy also owned the Drake so if you were down there like maybe you were a drug dealer or a defence attorny or a typwriter repair guy you would see the strippers walk between the 2 peeler bars

the nights busting open
these two lanes will take us anywhere...
we got one last chance to make it real

so... climb in

I'm pulling out of here to win


Bruce was 24
when he wrote the album -
the man has done some living -
like him or not.


thanks, KQ-

Re dad shoes--seems like all of a sudden shoes you don't have to tie are all the rage. Guess a lot of folks don't like bending over. I've got 4 pairs--2 Ons, 1 Solly, 1 Sketchers. I haven't deteriorated to the point of Velcro yet.
