Mon, 31 December 2007 We're wrapping up 2007 with a long white bow...and this incredible story of Bill Dean's proposal to his girlfriend, Carol, which took place in Boston this past November. This story definitely falls under the "amazing" category. Congratulations and best wishes to you both! Show a little faith, there's magic in the night- favorite lyrics of ours, and that pretty much sums up this story. Enjoy. |
Wed, 5 December 2007 I love the back of the pit. Plenty of room to groove, to dance, and as a bonus, you meet the coolest people there. One of many personal highlights from the shows I attended this past fall was meeting Ralph and his buddy Skip cutting the rug in the back of the pit in Detroit. Great good luck landed me next to them just as the house lights went down. We had a blast- danced our asses off- ending the night with an Irish jig during American Land. In this podcast episode, Ralph shares a great story from the 1980 Portland "On Top of Old Smoky" show. Rock On, brother, and I look forward to dancing with you again!Comments[0] |
Fri, 16 November 2007 Bossfan950. A familiar name to many of you, and a dear friend of ours here at the Tramps Like Us podcast. He's got a voice made for radio. We recorded this interview in LA on October 30th, and we kept saying to each other "how will Bruce and the band top what they did last night?" Well, we soon found out- we were elbows on the stage in front of Clarence, and I'll never forget the look on Steve's face when the opening notes of "Kitty's Back" were played. Thank you, Steve and we'll be seeing you further on up the road- the 5, to be exact.Comments[0] |
Wed, 7 November 2007 A powerful voice, a powerful presence, a powerful piece. I had the great good fortune of meeting Bruce Farley at the Cleveland arena on Sunday, November 4th. As Greetings blared from speakers set up outside a bar across the street, he shared this story with me. Thank you, Pastor Bruce!Comments[0] |
Sat, 3 November 2007 Whew! We've barely had time to catch our breath from the Oakland and LA shows, and it's time now to head to Cleveland (not that we're complaining!) Before we head out, we had to get some of these voices, which were recorded at the LA Sports Arena, up on the podcast. Off to bed now, got an early flight to catch. There's lots more good stuff coming up, so stay tuned. And thank you to all the wonderful folks who have shared their stories.Comments[0] |
Thu, 25 October 2007 Between that Cheshire smile and Bruce's fingers in her hair- I knew when I first saw Bev's signature picture on Backstreets.com that there was going to be a great story here. I wasn't disappointed. You won't be either. 'Nuff said. Bev- thank you for sharing. Comments[3] |
