Music

A long time ago, I used to listen to a band called Morphine. If I recall correctly, the vocalist died on stage.

This new material by Robert Plant brought back memories of the Morphine vibe.

Yep, "The Sandman" died onstage in Italy somewhere. Really sad, them boys was M-O-O-N g-u-d!

I believe that is the second new Bobert Plantlanta I have heard... Seems like he is always singing about some deal made at the "Crossroads" a many yarns ago anymore.

It is allright!

Hey, Cam do you remember "The ~~Dixie~~ Chicks?"

Not exactly an earworm, but it did give me cause for thought, especially about the name change. Was it a falling out of some sort? Nautical Shore...

nJoy!

I heard he was a total rat bastard and probably deserved it. I don't know anything more than that, but--it does seem plausible.

That being said, dying on stage is easy. Comedy is hard.

Mark "the" Sandman may or may not have been a rat-bastard, who give a hoot besides owls?

Their music was awesome:

I do remember those Chicks. Upon first exposure years ago I recall thinking "Hey, Bananarama regrouped."

I believe you're right, pate. Not quite an earworm, but is catchey/hip-notic.

As far as dropping Dixie, I wonder if they went far enough?

I can't advise the left or right (I refer to politics, not the helix'd paths twining up Mercury's key.)

BUT, if shooting for a revolution or statement, shouldn't the lesson of Cassius Clay be their b(e)acon?

A whole new name/experience.

It is a toughie, but I am partial to renaming the collective to The Kitchen Alligator Bitches; but that might echo too Cajun.

Speaking of chicks, I always had a weakness for this Lita Chick in this necessarily dated video.

As a slide effect, when I see that nymphonimbus hair, I am instantly transported to any given episode of Wings featuring Crystal Bernard.
