John, that's interesting that Arthur has gone into real estate. ;)
As Mr. Lee well knows, a house is not a motel.

No idea about the 'Crips' but my husband is black and often wears white shirts and black trousers...he is a Design Technology Teacher and, to my knowledge, has no 'gangsta' tendencies!!! 
Last year's survey indicated that the number one occupation used by Crips as cover for their outlaw ways was...you guessed it...Design Technology Teacher. Run Caryne, run!

Hi Tina:
I'm no gang banger expert but I think the "colors" are bandanas they wear. Years ago, Black dickie pants and white t shirts were a 'gang" look. Now days they seem to set the fashion trend sometimes. But I believe the colors are related to their bandanas. Certain color shoelaces with certain shoes identifies some gang members also but I don't know about the Crips or Bloods. What do I know anyway? I'm a nana for heavens sake. Personally I like the look where the pants are twelve sizes too big, the skivies with the brand name are hanging out and they look like they have a load in their pants when they walk. And this look is now a fashion trend in Calif. Oh please.
And my Dad thought mini skirts and long hair on guys was bad. Ah the good old days in many ways.

Bonham got credits for Good Times, Bad Times and his mental drumming on Out On The Tiles - what a great track! - among others. Mooney with the Who got a couple too. Densmore Doors. Though they did split credits for an album or two but realising it caused friction in the band (Arthur are you reading this) they decided to go back to co-writing everything. If everyone gets an even split, then no-one - or everyone - ends up in the poor house. Some artists do put a seperate credit on the sleeve, should the lyricist want it known that it's his poetry on top etc. Whatever keeps the peace is always the answer.
And for those that hadn't noticed, the Bryan MacLean site is receiving a much overdue facelift. All the pages except the homepage and gallery are pretty much done and I've got permission to whack some clips of rarities on there, so do keep a check on the site.
If anyone has pics, reviews, write-ups of any sort relating to the original band - Torben is doing a fine job where the current band are concerned - or anything else, please get in touch.
cheers Chris

MHM, songwriting credit is a touchy subject. Giving everyone
equal credit can lead to very bad habits, and really I don't
think it works.

Allan:
I wrote my post before I read your's adressed to me. You are totally on my wave length. My husband and his brothers were brought up to be bullies so I am very familiar with that syndrome. (funny my brothers are so mello.) What sign are you? |

I just got back in town Monday Night. We took our son up to one of the northern counties and settled him into college at Humboldt State University. It was so cool with young hippies living in the park. I talked to them and they were so full of Love. I ended up giving some a couple of $'s. It was like the Haight in 1967 before hard drugs raised it's ugly head. Wish I could have been there.
Sunday Night we stayed in Monterey, CA (the pop festival - the one that Arthur didn't want to play) at 10:30 P.M. we were at the entrance to the pier and Arthur walked by. It was cold and he was wearing a black coat (like a Pea Coat with a hood.) He flashed on me and then I flashed on him. (That is a total look of recognition.) He also was carrying a guitar case and had a dog (it could have been a pit bull. He carried it on a rope Leash of some sort. My daughter and husband were with me or I would have followed him. (could not do my husband bites and my daughter has hysterics)
If it wasn't Arthur, he must have a double. How many people look like Arthur?
P.S.: Arthur is 60 or 61 yrs old. He has had a substance abuse problem for a long time. He needs to rest. He has a lot of bagage.
I think that he needs to cut back on his schedule. Guys his age don't tour as much as he has since 2002. In the mean time it doesn,t sound as if you really need him. You have Johnny and that is so cool. Keeping a low profile and chillin in Arizona and New York. He is the second Love member that epitomized the flavor of the band and the era that it was created. |
