Love this, trip! I can still remember how blown away I was by those opening "Superstition" licks, when I first bought the BB&A album way back when.

I also see you're having posting glitches, as are we all. I wasn't able to get the link you posted on your failed reply to my here on David's blog, to work typing it in. If you reply to this comment, give it another try. :-)

hope the halftime show is better than W.E.., or that new song, video. is nicki minaj trying to ruin her career?

12:53 AM on 02/05/2012

Did you see W.E.?

[garystartswithg]

09:27 AM on 02/05/2012

Yes, its better than Tree of Life if that counts for anything. Both of them suffer from the same thing, they are pretty and thats about it.

In my youth, during the 70's, a "Super Bowl" was a hookah filled with Columbian Gold!

Today it's a mixture of my favorite cereals. ;-)

Have some "Wings," and enjoy "The Clash."

And I hope you all have a great time watching, "The Game." - Buddy Holly.
