I'm impressed too, Slim, but I can top that... I went to a funeral (of a young guy) where they played "I've Been to Paradise But I've Never Been To Me". The part about holding a baby in your arms and making love to your man that night was particularly, um, poignant. g Sophie === Give a man a

Here he goes againbut, Bad Company was perhaps, my favorite band a high schooler. I still retain an awfully fond soft spot for that band. Only the Paul Rodgers period though. I'll gladly pony up cash and see the reformed band. But what an incredibly stupid quote.groan.

Yeah, Neal and Jerry, I figured I would take a little heat for describing Bad Co as the downfall of Rodgers and Ralphs. I almost added the clause, "even though I know Jerry loved this band" g... That first album, ok. I'll admit, the first one was incredibly listenable and loads of people loved

Matt has been told bad things by bad people. I saw Bad Company (with Kansas opening) in the 70's and they rocked just fine. The drummer was a bit thuddy, if you know what I mean, but the rest of the band was competent. If you want a bad show, try crack-era David Crosby and Graham Nash. Or

A great "Feel Like Makin' Love" moment: I went to a white trash wedding once where this was played as the bride walked down the aisle. No kidding. Gotta admit, Slim, that's pretty impressive. I hesitate to imagine what other songs were played during the processional and concluding
