July 19, 200520 yr I have Home for Emily purchased, but will need a few more tunes for tonight's storm. Kap mentioned natural disaster tunes. Suggestions?
July 19, 200520 yr Blow Away, George Harrison Like a Hurricane, Neil Young Riding the Storm Out, REO Speedwagon
July 19, 200520 yr QUOTE(TheDybber @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) It's Raining Men by The Weather Girls Which we all know is permanently in Tex's CD player..
July 19, 200520 yr The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It's about bad weather and may last as long as the hurricane does. What about that song about that boxer by Bob Dylan?
July 19, 200520 yr QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 10:55 AM) I think the obvious choice here is Joan Baez's Blowin in the Wind. No knock on Joan, but it's DYLAN'S Blowin in the Wind, please.
July 19, 200520 yr Author 12:02 pm the first bit of rain has started. Eye of the Tiger Dust in the Wind Flood , Jars of Clay Texas Flood ~ Stevie Ray Vaughan ~ Well there's floodin' down in Texas, all of the telephone lines are down Well there's floodin' down in Texas, all of the telephone lines are down And I've been tryin' to call my baby, Lord and I can't get a single sound Well dark clouds are rollin' in, man I'm standin' out in the rain Well dark clouds are rollin' in, man I'm standin' out in the rain Yeah flood water keep a rollin', man it's about to drive poor me insane Well I'm leavin' you baby, Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay Well I'm leavin' you baby, Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay Well back home I know floods and tornados, baby the sun shines every day
July 19, 200520 yr And now for the Beatles portion of the soundtrack Rain Fixing a Hole Helter Skelter Yellow Submarine
July 19, 200520 yr Tex, did I ever tell you I own a Fender Telecaster that I got autographed by Stevie Ray in '87?? I know it should be a Strat, but I only owned the Tele at the time.

July 19, 200520 yr Author I just realized I need some Muddy Waters I wish it would be hitting earlier in the night or on the weekend, makes for a better party.
July 19, 200520 yr QUOTE(winodj @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Beatiful song.
July 19, 200520 yr QUOTE(Texsox @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 12:31 PM) How did you meet him? He played a concert at UofI Follenger (sp?) Auditorium. I literally had just finished taking a mid-term exam in that very auditorium like an hour before the concert. Some friends (well, former friends, seeing as the lead singer shagged my girlfriend shortly after this time) of mine were the opening band, so I had an in to meet Stevie after the show. It was right after he had done the rehab thing, and he was absolutely the nicest guy you could ever meet.

Kind of like taking a glove to a baseball game? You never know when you will catch a cord?

July 19, 200520 yr No mention of "Riders On The Storm"-The Doors "Shook me all night long" AC/DC...oh wait, wrong kind of shaking.
July 19, 200520 yr QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 02:07 PM) "Shook me all night long" AC/DC...oh wait, wrong kind of shaking. Maybe not--there was a big baby boom in FLA 9 months after all their hurricanes. I mean, the power's probably already out. . .

Yeah, I figured I'd show Stevie ray a thing or two... My dorm was literally right across the street from the Auditorium. When the house lights came up at the end of the show i ran back to my room to grab my guitar.
