There are other threads that reference Jack's constant refrain "Like a coin that won't get tossed, rolling home to you" as the puck rolls towards an icing call. Agree that perhaps he's worn it out as far as an icing call goes. It does always makes me think of this line though as the years have worn on. "I've been first and last, look at how the time goes past, but I'm all alone at last, rolling home to you"
I drove up to Kittery Maine to Christmas shop. I basically went to one store.
I heard this song on the way up. I always liked it. Nice story telling.

Used to work overnights at Stop & Shop with a guy named Dave Chapin. Of course nobody called him Dave; we called him Harry, much to his chagrin. When this song would play on the overhead, the whole crew would yell out the "How are ya, Harry?" part, scaring the customers to death.

Discoverd Brandi Carlile with 2007's The Story.
She's f***ing great.
And, as these spots attest, she's happy.
Wow.
It's never too late,

And now for something completely different.
Chris Thomas, who produced the Pistols' Never Mind the Bollocks (at least the non-single stuff) helmed Pretenders first album, and it sounds as fresh today as it did in late 1979,

A connection to Simple Minds...
The couple divorced in 1990 – Kerr went on to marry actress Patsy Kensit, while Hynde married artist Lucho Brieva in 1997, separating five years later. However Hynde, 66, and Kerr, 58, have remained good friends.

had the good fortune of having a buddy whose father worked for Ticketmaster in Ottawa, can`t remember his exact title but we had access to literally every concert/show that came to town. Was a touch hesitant hitting this one as outside of the few hits of their I knew I didn`t think I`d enjoy myself a ton but man was I wrong, they put on such an energetic show.

Maybe next year.
Several thoughts as I catch up on the last three pages:
I've seen probably around 1500 bands live. Depeche Mode easily makes my top 10. They are phenomenal.
Neil Young is, too, and I will never hear the "rolling home" with Jack the same way again.
Thin Lizzy is why Metallica did "Whiskey in the Jar," which is also good, but Lynott's vocal is so superior to Hetfield's, it's criminal.
Before they were U2, Adam Clayton apparently once decided to ring Phil Lynott's doorbell and ask him for advice. They allegedly remained friendly until Phil's death.
"Brothers in Arms" is Dire Straits worst album. Easily. Which tells you how awesome the first four are. And "Sultans of Swing" is still one of my ten favorite rock songs ever. "Down to the Waterline" is such a great song from that debut, too.
The Mark Knopfler/Chet Atkins "Neck and Neck" record is a masterpiece.
I think my favorite Brian Eno album might be the one he did with John Cale, "Wrong Way Up."
Jeff Lynne is probably going to be the last living Wilbury, which is unfair. ELO was a cool thing, but he's not on the level of his band mates. He must have had incriminating photos to get that invite.
Emmylou Harris should be as famous as Dolly Parton.
Justin Timberlake is one of the three most talented people in contemporary music over the last 25 years.
George Michael's genius was revealed too late and Wham! was mostly cheese. Catchy, but meh.
Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds were too "British" (yeah, Dave's Welsh, I know) to really take off in the US, I think. Not poppy enough, anthem-y enough or angst-y enough as any of their counterparts and maybe too clever for most of the US audience. Too New Wave for a lot of mainstream rock stations and too garage-rooted and old for college radio. Everyone else's loss.

Burton Cummings and Bobby Orr for the win over the Jets and the bass player. Burton and the Boys used to skate around with the other Bobby, Hull and the WHA Jets on occasion. David Krejci sang this on the way to Camp this year after re-signing up." On my way to better things, I got myself some Wings!"
