Saw him at the Hollywood Bowl last summer. Class.A Flock Of Seagulls! A mighty fine guilty pleasure. I saw them at the first "Us" festival put on by Steve Jobs. They were really a studio band --- pretty bland on stage.Since the day I went to was "New Wave Day" (whatever THAT meant), a lot of the robot bands got blown off the stage by The Stray Cats. Man did they ROCK! No perfect time, but perfect energy.But the BIG surprise for me was The Clash. They came out pissing and spitting, "Hello L.A., and F--- You!" The crowd was really hostile until they started playing. One of the best rock bands I've ever heard live.Ern

An amazing artist in every way.And Rock, Perry Como does rock da house. One of my favorites of his is 'And I Love You So', written by Don McLean I think. Makes me blub every time.

My name is Nomi Yah and I am a Luther Vandross aholic. Lately, I've been hooked on "Dance with my Father". I really had it bad about 7 years ago, listened to "Little Miracles" first thing every morning for over a year.

It'll probably turn up. It was scratched anyway. Oops!

Nomi, I'd be so annoyed!Wanna get even? Hehheh... Record a CD in your studio with the following dialog:"You have just activated the 'GenSat GTS Tracking and Reporting Software'. The program is functioning at ninety-six percent and is transmitting at 9.6 Ghz. <pause> A fixed position entry has been recorded and the system log was successfully created."Label it "I. D. Beats" or something and leave it in your car...

I am a sap... I LOVE the Monkees' track "Shades of Grey"... AND it often brings a tear to my eye when I listen. Casey
