The Residents were a performance-art ensemble that originated in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco...if I'm honest I find them difficult to appreciate fully when sober.

I'm afraid, I thought it grim when sober ........ I might risk listening again after a few beers ...... but then, ............ I might not

I might not i thought they were great in the days when I found pleasure in hashish. TBH, I think you have to be high to catch the vibe, man... It may help to know that the early album 'The Third Reich and Roll' is a collection of covers where the game is 'guess the original track'. Incidentally, the album title is a swipe at the nature of the music business. Anyhow, they did stuff to be viewed as well as listened to. There are some videos if you do some digging.

just came across this by accident and thought it both unusual and good, both the music and the video .... worth a watch

I'd dig a deep hole for this one, but as it seems your brain is burnt out you may enjoy this kind of thing?

Resurrecting this thread as I had been running through some of Tomsk's suggestions and thought these two could do with an airing
It's been over a year since we heard from Tomsk ...... I for one miss him

I had a sneaking suspicion for a time that tomsk was still on here posting under a different id but it is remarkable how people are so recognisable so probably wrong about that. I'm not sure if it is possible to reappear and not be noticed. It's quite an interesting subject really. Some people try to do it by deliberately spoiling the grammar or language but it is very theatrical. Posting style seems to be like fingerprints.

Tom was meant to be coming to visit me, (we had an exchange of PM's) a couple of days before, he called it off as something had come up. He had my phone number but unfortunately I didn't have his. When he suddenly disappeared I had no way to contact him to check if he was ok ....... You can't help but wonder

Yes it's a bit of a weird situation isn't it. Similar with patty. A valued and respected member of the forum now apparently gone. I've told my children that if I suddenly die can they please go on Thunderboat and confirm the details (man falls off boat and drowns) so that everyone can celebrate

To be fair in patty 's case, she did announce her absence due to world travels so not as concerning ... I'm sure Patty will be back. There are a number of members missing like tomsk, with no direct explanation ( Saltysplash to name but one) and it's not until reading old threads that the names spring to mind. Rog

Might me more amusing to keep everyone guessing.

Tom was meant to be coming to visit me He did give me his address a couple of years back as he requested one of the calendars, and I posted one. It was probably someone else's address. And they are wondering why they have got a calendar with a threatening knife-waving lunatic on the front cover.
