Hey Joe, where you going with that mouse in your hand? Click your profile pic in the upper right corner. Menu should open. Click Shop and then Orders. You should see your subscription details here.

This page actually opens when I first logon to the club. Took me a minute to figure how to get there from here.

I love how a lot of us are challenged to pick a favorite, as Lisa said,”it’s like trying to pick a favorite child” (remember Mona’s reaction to that? Hilarious)

As I said, my list of favorites is a work in progress. Wish You Were Here takes the lead sometimes, but like Jung said, there is something about The Best Years Of Our Lives that once it starts, I have to stop, look and listen. OK, it is the same for Wish You Were Here…we’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl.. goosebumps

It looks like “the one that brought ght us here” is a popular favorite. But now there is a collection of new favorites on its way. Whoa is me LOL

Omg, when I typed LOL, auto correct wanted to change it to LOLA ????

TGIF!

The best advice I ever heard from tech support,”By any chance do you have kids, or do you know any teenagers? They can probably help you.”

Remember when an FM stereo or a Cassette deck was considered an upgrade. My first car, Grandma’s 1972 Chevelle only had an AM radio.

Ok, one more. My kids didn’t believe me when I told them the high beam switch used to be on the floor and you would press it with your foot.

Blue tooth is awesome. I find it safer than trying to switch CD’s on the highway. I also love putting my device on shuffle to hear my favorites in random order. This usually results in some nice surprises. Mind your driving when Dreams plays. ????????

David and Michael,

I can not believe I over looked the feline CD player. I was gonna add another cat joke, but my cats only play catsets.

I know what you mean, Bill. Four talented musicians were in the same groove for this brief moment in time, and we get to experience it over and over. The band was very tight that night. It was an explosion of groovy energy.

I think we all share the same dream of a live show and everyone here meeting there. It looks like we already have a plan to be sure Jacki is up front with an unobstructed view. That’s a given, eh?

“I’d never give a dream away Not even for a day”

Walking On The Air is made for skiing. I took my MLT library skiing yesterday. We got four inches of snow the night before, so conditions were perfect. Walking On The Air was on replay for a while. It’s driving rhythm is perfect for carving through the powder. Other highlights were Once Upon A Time and Nothing Is In Vain. Actually all of When We’re Together was great. Well, use extreme caution with Dreams. It’s hypnotic groove can affect your reaction time.

Very kool. I am always amazed when singers just burst into song in perfect harmony. I love it when Lisa and Mona do it in the WOTT videos. True talent.

‘This was kool. It can be quite interesting to watch a band just sitting around talking about this and that.

WOW! This is truly amazing. I love watching musicians like this. The guitar is part of him. I was imagining he was looking at a big monitor on the floor as it was scrolling the sheet music for this piece.

I am starting to believe that the great ones were born with partitioned brains, so they could concentrate on all the different parts of a piece like this. How does he remember everything? Practice, practice,practice. His roommate probably wears a t-shirt that says,”stop playing the same song over and over and over”

He seems very humble when he bows at the end. I like it when Mona and Lisa bow after performing. It’s an old tradition that still shows class.
‘Thanks for sharing these.

Hi Jung,

We were lucky enough to see Gilmour at Radio City on that tour. Crosby and Nash were there to sing backup. I love how they just stand still and watch Gilmour when he is playing his solos. I think this one might be from Royal Albert Hall?

Did you know that when Floyd originally recorded this song, the opening hum was done by rubbing wine glasses? Here is a peek of how they did it.

Now go put the original album on and listen close. Does it sound a little different now that you know it’s not a synthesizer?

Shine on
