kass Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Wooo HOOO!!! Good plan, Jack! And I have just the boots for it... Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
Hester Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Hee! I dug out my vinyl last week after that discussion of Adam Ant. Hey! There was a discussion of Adam Ant and I missed it????!!!

We need to have a Pyracy Pub "New Wave & Punk" Party! Oh, count me in too, Jack. I'm in the same "almost ready for bifocals" cohort as the rest of ya scurvy knaves. Cheers, Hester N[ow] P[laying]: Pretenders, "Tatooed Love Boys" (Chrissie Hynde's got a lot of Pirattitude!)
The Doctor Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Wooo HOOO!!! Good plan, Jack! And I have just the boots for it... Ha! So do I, and I can legitimately wear the war paint! Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
kass Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 So can Adam Ant! I think the Navaho Nation made him an official member for positively promoting Native Americans! Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
Hester Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 So can Adam Ant! I think the Navaho Nation made him an official member for positively promoting Native Americans! I think this discussion needs illustrations: Hoist the Jolly Roger!
kass Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Oh! Bless you, Hester! Bless you! {They're not supposed to make Englishmen that pretty!} <swooning> Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
Hester Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 {They're not supposed to make Englishmen that pretty!}<swooning> Pretty, yes ... but he's also stark raving mad -- which is quite an English trait (otherwise known as "eccentric"). Cheers, Hester
kass Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Who cares! I don't have to live with him! Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
McBarnacle Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Pretty, yes ... but he's also stark raving mad -- which is quite an English trait (otherwise known as "eccentric"). Oi! We're not stark raving mad - it's just the rest of you are just too damn sane (otherwise known as "boring").
kass Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Oh, I've never been accused of that! (being sane nor boring...) Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
Hester Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 I'd say just about everyone here at the Pub is probably odd enough to get classed as "eccentric" (though, happily, very few of us seem to be as certifiable as Mr. Ant). And now, to segue from the topic of pretty, stark raving mad Englishmen back to the original thread topic of music... ...right now I'm listening to The Libertines, "Music When the Lights Go Out" Cheers, Hester
The Doctor Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 "Subtle innuendo follows... Must be something inside!" Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
PirateSSe Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Mr. Ant is one insect I wouldn't mind crawling ALL over me...........
Capt.Trade.Wind Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Right this moment I am listening to Running Wild. I heard about them from the Sea Shanty area. Not to shabby for us metal heads. Though I do still prefer Rev. Jimmy B.
Rogue Mermaid Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Weird Al Yankovic. I love his new song "White and Nerdy"!
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 a torrential downpour outside. Rain, rain, rain. Thunder BOOM! Rain, rain, rain. "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny... 'Cuz he's only got one shoe! Ahhrrr!"

Hester Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Three different variations of the Irish folk song, "I Know My Love" -- one by the Corrs & the Chieftains, one by Eliza Carthy & Nancy Kerr, and one by James Yorkston -- none of which seems to match the sheet music that I have for my "solo" in singing class this term.
Hester Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 A flock of Canada geese honking as they fly south past my window.
PirateSSe Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 A flock of Canada geese honking as they fly south past my window. Geese are intelligent animals. They know to fly SOUTH for the lousy winter!
Hester Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Popular Tunes in 17th Century England by the Broadside Band:
PirateSSe Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 "Golden Brown" by the Stranglers. Gorgeous song......
Hester Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 If you like The Stranglers, you'll probably also like THE RAKES ... especially the song "The Guilt". Cheers, Hester
