Prince

Shawnee123 08-25-2006 08:00 AM

You got it.

Your turn!:)

Trilby 08-25-2006 08:47 AM

Prince played keyboard on which Stevie Nicks hit?

Flint 08-28-2006 08:43 AM

Three days...I think we're stumped.
Plus, I really wanna know this!

Trilby 08-28-2006 08:46 AM

Stand Back

Who wants to go?

Flint 08-28-2006 08:48 AM

How odd...I love that kind of trivia.

I have one: What does a green rosetta do?
Bonus: How would you describe a green rositti?

Damn Yankees. Gwen Verdon sang it, I believe.

I know it wasn't a question to be answered, but you can't leave something like that just hanging.

Flint 08-29-2006 08:21 AM

How can we get this thread moving?

Somone will see this and know the answer instantly . . .

Flint 08-29-2006 11:26 AM

I've changed my signature to a hint on this question!

Shawnee123 08-29-2006 11:42 AM

Sorry Flint, I'm completely lost.

A green Rosetta vows never to eat the shellfish special in a month without an R, ever again.

A green Rositti is bent over the railing saying "Mommy, my tummy hurts."

(OK, It was just a shot in the dark)

Flint 08-29-2006 11:57 AM

Nice guesses! But...

The answers, to both parts, rhyme (loosely) with the item[s] in question...

Spexxvet 08-29-2006 12:28 PM

guitar
bow

Flint 08-29-2006 01:56 PM

"a little green rosetta, a little green rosetta, ______________,
a little green rositti, a little green rositti, _____________..." FZ

Shawnee123 08-29-2006 02:16 PM

a little green rosetta, it makes you feel betta'
a little green rositti, looks just like a wheatie?

Flint 08-29-2006 02:17 PM

You got the rhyming word of the first part.

I thought there would be some Zappa fans around?

I like the Zap but don't know much about him.

Flint 08-29-2006 02:25 PM

Actually "a little green rosetta, it makes a ______ betta..."

Spexxvet 08-29-2006 02:25 PM

Blow Job?

It's Frank Zappa lyrics from the album Joe's Garage.

Spexxvet 08-30-2006 08:12 AM

ok, go again.

Flint 08-30-2006 08:24 AM

I forfeit. :::lets thread die a natural death:::

Spexxvet 08-30-2006 09:02 AM

I'll go.

On most album covers, there was small print stating that so-and-so performer appears courtesy of such-and-such company. On Mott The Hoople's "The Hoople", there is a similar statement. Complete the sentence:

Mick Ralphs appears ____________

Elspode 08-30-2006 02:35 PM

naked? really, really stoned? Courtesy of his mother?

Shawnee123 08-30-2006 02:42 PM

courtesy of McDonalds?

Flint 08-30-2006 02:45 PM

Courtesy of a little green rosetta?

Spexxvet 08-30-2006 05:38 PM

no, no, no, no, and no.

Hint:

Mick Ralphs appears - - / - - / - - / - - - / - - - - - - -

No "courtesy"

capnhowdy 08-30-2006 07:15 PM

...appears to like Frank Zappa?

Spexxvet 08-31-2006 07:44 AM

Sorry, that is incorrect!

Hint

Mick Ralphs appears to be in _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Shawnee123 08-31-2006 08:00 AM

the bathtub?

Spexxvet 09-01-2006 08:00 AM

Ok, the answer:

Mick Ralphs appears to be in Bad Company.

Mick had just left Mott the Hoople to form the group Bad Company.

Spexxvet 09-01-2006 08:01 AM

In the Little Feat song, who is in the bathtub?

Flint 09-01-2006 08:12 AM

This is the Central Scrutinizer. As you can see, music can get you pretty fvcked up. Take a tip from Joe: do like he did, hock your imaginary guitar and get a good job. Joe did, and he's a happy guy now, on the day shift at the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen, arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas snoot of a fully-charged icing and anointment utensil. And every time a nice little muffin comes by on the belt, he puts forth...

...a little green rosetta, a little green rosetta, it makes a muffin betta

...a little green rositti, a little green rositti, it's really really neat-y

Ibby 09-01-2006 08:53 AM

SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES BETTER.
I FOR ONE CARE LESS FOR THEM.

mrnoodle 09-01-2006 08:59 AM

Dang you guys know lots of esoteria.

Little Feat...dog in the bathtub? (not even a clue)

Shawnee123 09-01-2006 09:32 AM

Bubble bath?

Griff 09-01-2006 09:44 AM

Nope but that might help.

Fatman in the Bathtub
Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands & knees
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil alright?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonite,
comeback Monday, well you comeback Tuesday, then i might."

I said Juanita, my sweet Juanita, what are you up to?
My Juanita. I said Juanita, my sweet taquita,
what are you up to? My Juanita.

Well, i dont want nobody who wont die for dance.
Dont throw me no speed cars cause i die tryin.
Throw me line, throw me a dime.
Cause theres a fat man in the bathtub with the blues.
I hear you moan, i hear you moan--moan

Billy got so sad, dejected, put on his hat and started to run.
Runnin down the street and yellin at the top of his lungs
"All i want in this life and time is some good clean fun,
All i want in this life and time is some hit and run!"

I said Juanita, my sweet Juanita, what are you up to?
My Juanita. I said Juanita, my sweet taquita,
what are you up to? My Juanita

Well i put my money in your meter baby so it wont run down,
But you got me in a squeeze play on the cheesey side of town.
Throw me line, now show me a sign.
Cause theres a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, i hear you moan, yea

Spexxvet 09-01-2006 10:43 AM

In the Little Feat song "willin'", what does the singer ask you to give him?

Elspode 09-01-2006 12:57 PM

Weed, 'whites and wine...and show me a time.

Spexxvet 09-01-2006 12:59 PM

correct (except show me a sign)

Your turn.

Elspode 09-01-2006 01:08 PM

Who has sung more Bond theme songs than anyone else?

glatt 09-01-2006 01:23 PM

Nancy Sinatra?

Edit: I just saw the other thread, can I change my answer?

Elspode 09-01-2006 01:33 PM

I'm sorry, no use of reference material. It isn't my rule. :)

capnhowdy 09-01-2006 08:23 PM

Sheena Easton?

Shirley Bassey.

(off the top of my head, Goldfinger, Diamonds are Forever. I don't think that she did the Mango Tree song in Doctor No, and I'm not sure about Thunderball. The Rock Anthem Bond songs started with Live and Let Die, although Man with the Golden Gun had a more traditional (i.e., Jazzy) Bond theme.

Elspode 09-02-2006 09:41 AM

Wolf is correct. "Thunderball" was done by Tom Jones, BTW.

wolf 09-02-2006 07:25 PM

The third song, incidentally, was for Moonraker. I had to look it up. I stopped watching the Moore Campy/Crappy bond films. I did like The Man with the Golden Gun, because of a longstanding obsession with Christopher Lee, but Lulu did the theme for that, although she sounds a lot like Shirley Bassey.

Okay ... let's say it's 1969, and you and a friend want to enjoy three days of peace, love, and music.

How much will it cost you for tickets, advance or gate, assuming you don't just bust through the fence?

JayMcGee 09-02-2006 08:10 PM

a knife in your ribs...?


Altamont......

capnhowdy 09-02-2006 08:38 PM

That could be painful.

Elspode 09-02-2006 09:31 PM

$20?

Ibby 09-03-2006 01:13 AM

Three-day tickets: $18.00 (no refunds)
