Tundras live: Dumb Dad Jokes, Incorrect Opinions, Relationship Advice, and Parking Etiquette

Metallica's turning point was the black album, everything after was not good

 

Knowing how the weather went, I probably would have made it to Little Rock and back OK.
I'd be between Mt Pleasant and Dallas right now and it's starting to slow down.
Probably best I stayed home.



I think you guys north of Dallas got more sleet and snow during the day today than I did..

 

That's when I started liking them..
Kinda like Rush, I didn't like them until Moving Pictures..

 

Maybe that's why she whines in the car? Open a window for her.

 

I like that table and chairs..

 

Heh, and I liked Rush right up until after Moving Pictures.

One of my favorites.

 

Screw going to work I want belly rubs

 

Ditto

and the picture on the permanent waves album is the street I grew up on

I walked my Irish setter to the beach right at that intersection.

 

I'm really liking that table too!

 

My teenage years we spent so much time listening to that album and partying on Crystal Beach which I think it was just a few miles east of Galveston on hwy 87 .

 

Kuul!

 

I lived in Pearland until I was 13, and kept a friend from elementary school after I graduated from High School. He invited me down the summer after we graduated and we spent a day crabbing, and partied on Crystal Beach that night. Once dinner was done, we built a fire and the bongs and bottles broke out. About 10:00 the beach patrol pulled up on us from both sides. Naked girls, illicit substances, and underage drinking was all going on and I knew I was spending the night in jail. One of the patrol trucks' PA came on, and the officer announced that our cars were blocking resident's driveways, and could we please move them. And they left. That was the night before the oil slick hit in the mid 80s.

 

Given the recent talk of music and metal, I figured this would fit.



Shamelessly stolen from TW.

 

Now that I think about I guess Permanent Waves is what got me into Rush.
At least side 1.



I was a fan of Signals.
That's when the purists bailed on them..
I'd listen to this entire LP over and over in 1982.







You anti Van Halen guys are weird...
Van Halen and New Wave are what thankfully ended my KISS freak days in 1978..

Oh hell yes. Eddie at his best!!

 

I used to have this old NAD receiver and little Mission speakers in middle school/HS. I was a huge Rush fan. Man those speakers were tight and they would do Neil Peart justice. We went to several of their concerts but honestly I’m not sure which ones. I didn’t realize Peart died in 2020.

 

My Texas friends were posting snow pictures... i went outside, in Florida, and it was 31 degrees. So I started a fire....

 

You know you live in a redneck town when your local brewery has to post this.

 

31 in FL, no likes for that. BRRRR

 

yeah but we had higher humidity and we are not used to those temps!

 

California be like

 

funny, my friend group said similar when I sent them photos lol... so I made a tok about it.
