Can I crash the party? I have been known to play a mean tambourine. I also add a lot of flare to any musical genre with my spicy maracas and castanets. Oh, and in a pinch, nobody does a cow bell like me.

Yeap George Lynch is a great lead guitarist. He's up there with Randy Rhoads and Jake E Lee of Ozzy as my fav leads and Steve Harris on Bass from Iron Maiden and Neil Peart of Rush for the Drums .
You can't forget another important guest, Eddie... not Van Halen, but Iron Maiden's official mascot... don't worry, he's not as scary as he looks, he is a nice guy.. and I think he likes to play that fly swatter game too!

I also think he was having a bad hair day when that picture was taken!

Today's Question(s) hosted by

The SPECIAL TALENT FAIRY


For the 1st ? the Special Talent Fairy has sprinkled their "Magic Fairy Dust" on you and you now possess great musical talent

Which famous Musical Group of all time will you be joining on stage ?

Easy, U2 so I can dance with Bono. Ok, why waste a musical talent dancing with someone so I'll choose Sade. It would be awesome to sing with her.


For the 2nd ? the above mentioned Fairy has sprinkled the "Magic Fairy Dust" on you and you have 24 hours the choice of any Super Hero Power

Which Super Hero Power will you chose ?

I'd end any and all forms of abuse, spousal, child, animal, elder...

For the 3rd ? the STF Fairy has used the last of the "Magic Fairy Dust"
(yup even Fairy's are having cut backs these days) to give you 24 hours with anyone on heaven or earth

Who will you chose to spend the time with ?

This is a tough one. Well, since I'll already see my loved ones and Jesus in heaven, I'll choose--yikes, this is rather personal someone I fell in love with at 18 whose marriage proposal I turned down b'c, at the time, I felt he could do so much better than me.

The SPECIAL TALENT FAIRY


For the 1st ? the Special Talent Fairy has sprinkled their "Magic Fairy Dust" on you and you now possess great musical talent



Which famous Musical Group of all time will you be joining on stage ? Not a group, but Billie Holliday. It's hard for me to choose just one!


For the 2nd ? the above mentioned Fairy has sprinkled the "Magic Fairy Dust" on you and you have 24 hours the choice of any Super Hero Power

Which Super Hero Power will you chose ? I want to travel through time.


For the 3rd ? the STF Fairy has used the last of the "Magic Fairy Dust"
(yup even Fairy's are having cut backs these days) to give you 24 hours with anyone on heaven or earth

Who will you chose to spend the time with ?
Again, hard to choose. I think I'll say my dad. He passed almost three years ago. I know that if I see him I'll also see my ten year old neice and my dad's dog.[/quote]

Yes! That would be my 2nd choice. I'm having fun reading all these.

Mrs Dude and I have a gospel album (yes actual 33 1/3 RPM vinyl) I've sat in with country bands and was once introduced as the rockin, rollin, racing, reverand when I sat in with a 60's rock band. I would really like to do something with a big band. Put me in the Glen Miller line.

Holy Cow! I just checked that out - that must have been the first "rock video"!!

My nephew is a big Hendrix fan (he's not yet 20 yrs old) & says sometimes someone in his crowd will hear a Hendrix song & think it's something brand new. Then is surprised to find out how long ago the song came out! I bet if they played Green Tambourine on a "top rock" station now, the kids would be out getting the CD from this hot "new" group!
