    Well, here we go again ... I haven't posted many coins on this cool thread for a while, so apparently I can let 'er buck tonight!!

    Well, you really need to be young and super-high to get it!! (luckily, I can still remember that feeling)

    ;)

    hey => but I still have two new coins/tunes ... I'd better think wisely

    Really? .. you didn't like Halo of Flies (that was one of my go-to 1970-80 get stoned songs)

    Hmmm, I'd better rethink this

    Well, I think I've only got one more new-coin/tune in me ... hmmm, what'll it be, eh?

    Unfortunately, I have such a bad memory that I may end-up playin' a tune that I've already played during these 33-fricken pages of tunes (wow, who knew that this thread would survive that long, eh?) ... cha-ching

    Well, I could play the song from Gilligan's Island, but that'd be too easy ...

    Oh, I like everything Alice does, and Halo comes from one of my fave albums. It was just all the flies in the video that creeped me out.

    You MAY have and I may have said Palmolive was a better drummer on this one.

    Man, I love Zeppelin and I love Gilligan's Island => thanks for that, my ol' coin-friend (Funny how you never saw Gilligan and Jimmy Page together, eh? ... are they the same guy?)
