Oooof! I was born in 1970, so 80s and 90s music is where my heart sits. I have a fondness for British new wave and pop, so the top of my list is PSB, Depeche Mode, New Order, and Tears for Fears. I enjoy other genres for sure. Deep Purple's Smoke on the Water is a current earworm, for example.

Thats one of the coolest things about music. Doesnt matter when it was made, its still "new" to you the 1st time you hear it lol

Oh yes. Love the Smiths. OMD and Erasure, too. I used to have a decent vinyl collection, but sadly too many moves did away with it. Still have a crapload of CDs. Man, I loved listening to the mixes back in my club days. Say what you want about gay bars, but back in the 90s they had the best music for dancing.

Me too on the records. The reason I still listen to EDM is probably because of the club days. I mostly listen to "techno" as we called it back in the day when I am working out, or driving Also, yes...the best raves and national/international DJs that came to Charlotte always came to the "gay club" downtown. There were lines wrapped around the block of people waiting to get in, and they didnt close til like sunrise. Great dance music and lots of beautiful ladies. Miami still has amazing raves to this day, and technology has made them crazy with lasers and 3D holograms etc. Will see if I can find a cool video real quick ...heres 1 of my favorite current EDM artists doing a set at Burning Man. No idea how many tens of thousands of people were there?

I could see Bru running a 40 faster than what the scouts think impressing some team that will take him well before the 6th round. If he stays healthy, then he will be a very physical possession receiver in the NFL for many years.

Great question. Good looking list too. I think we are probably gonna put more than 3 Dlines in the NFL this year. Hope not...but Josephs could jump and Bailey could too. I think Bailey isnt out of eligibility? He has had a good season especially the flarda and bama games. I think that Kitselman is gonna be a late round steal for somebody. He came in and took over TE1 immediately. Good blocker and good routes/hands. He will be a big part of our success in 12 personnel for the rest of this season IMO.

Hes got the pedigree for sure. He was a legit 5* kid out of HS...so ranked in the top 32 kids in the nation because 5* kids are supposed to be future 1st round draft picks (in theory). Bru has all the measurables and a knack for making big plays when we need them most, in addition to absolutely abusing DBs as a blocker. I think you're spot on. If he can put up good combine numbers he can move up a couple rounds. I can see him having a career like our Dog out there in San Francisco. Make a living as a posession WR on 3rd downs and pancake blocking DBs. So fun to watch.

Oh, the girls! There were always pretty straight girls at the club, and there were 3 primary groups:

1) Those who wanted to dance and have fun without being hit on.
2) Those who loved hanging out with gay guys (I don't like to use the term).
3) Those who wanted to make out with/turn gay guys (some overlap with group 2).

Man, those were good times. We laughed and had so much fun.

Fav PF Album?
Click to expand...
For some strange reason, the hardcore PF fans always say "Animals" in my experience...but I think objectively DSOTM is their Magnum Opus, right?

Time
Money
Us and them etc etc

The "pulse" box set is absolutely amazing, all their biggest commercial hits...but thats kinda cheating. So here we go:

1. DSOTM
2. Meddle. (Still love Echoes. Used to listen to it EVERY night going to sleep as a young teen)
3. Animals
4. The Wall
5. The Final Cut
6. Wish you were here

Some of the most beautiful, and unique ladies I have ever seen in my entire lifetime were at raves. Just amazingly unique creatures not seen in daylight, and amazing dancers. I am sure some of them were strippers...but raves also just brought out the freaks man. Chicks that were solid 10s with blue hair and body piercings everywhere.

The MDMA certainly didnt hurt either...lol.

Your last sentence beat me to it. I had to google what MDMA was.

Meddle is my 2nd as well.

Funny you posted that while I was typing my usual long post. Animals is a great album. Surprised both of yall like Meddle that much too. Yall are definitely not "casual" PF guys either. Wish I could actually play like you can , OB. Dont have musical talent though. Dink has good taste in music, and its clearly an important part of his life. I can always count on him to turn me on to stuff I havent heard before. Getting old sucks.
