This song reminds me of Eric for some reason... can't quite put my finger on it...
Not to be a comments thread killer, but, I'm guessing it's the part where he says:
"...mercy..."
Dat's gotta be it.
Posted by: Erica at December 8, 2007 8:52 PM.. maybe so, maybe so.... but I look a LOT better when I have my sunglasses on than ole Roy does....
Posted by: Eric at December 9, 2007 9:12 AM... great speaking to you today, bro..... you know I love you......
Posted by: Eric at December 9, 2007 6:41 PMI'm thinking it has something to do with both of you being 'lonely'??? *L* Love the clip!
Posted by: Michele at December 10, 2007 3:46 PMIt is a perplexing question if I do say so myself. I ain't had a time like this since they told me to do a book report on the Illyad book by some dude named ... duh, "Homer" Simpson I think was his last name.
At first, I, like Erica, believed it to be the trademark "mercy" bellowed out. That had my vote at the start.
Then, I saw all those wimmin's in the front row, and you know, Eric do draw the fairer sex his to him like a gay hair dresser does. He's got style now. And he says he can cook.
Then, I got to lookin' at what's goin' on... a bunch of fella's in a smoke filled room, tryin' to out guitfiddle each other singin' a song everybody can sing along with and I just knew that was it.
Then it dawned on me. I was wrong. In your eye's Vman, when you think of Eric... son you see "Pretty Wowman", and you want a piece.
Bring Kevlar brother, bring kevlar. And a shovel proof helment.
Erica, comment thread killin' is my yob man. I takes pride in it. Don't go gettin' pissy either... If I didn't tell you "Mimbo" would have.
Damnit... I spelled that Illyad thing wrong.. well it's "Iliad"... and yes, y'all, I did flunk "hooked on phonics" class, but I passed all the other hooked series classes.
Posted by: Redneck at December 10, 2007 7:14 PMOh, and Eric, yes, you do look better with your sunglasses on, assuming you can find where you left 'em when you ran, and lookit, you got ol' Roy's hind end kicked when it comes to sportin' the green and white umbrella in Austin. He don't stand a chance in that category.
Posted by: RedNeck at December 10, 2007 7:18 PM... and hey, Tom Waits is playing the paino........ that's pretty cool....
Posted by: Eric at December 10, 2007 8:14 PMOh, damn -- that had to have been one of the hottest lineups in concert history -- had the whole thing on tape at one time -- wore it out. Thanks for reminding me, V-dude -- gotta find another copy!
Posted by: Marianne at December 11, 2007 4:42 AMNow wait just a second, both of youse. Eric may look "better" with his shades on, because he was blessed with boyish good looks, but Roy [rest his soul] revolutionized that look.
Vu iz di Mimbo??
Posted by: Erica at December 11, 2007 2:39 PMErica, Mimbo = Jimbo, goofy, you called him that. Eric may look better with his shades on, but just ask him, he's faster with 'em off...
Yes, I KNOW that. It was just a commentary, sort of, on your comment, "Don't go gettin' pissy either... If I didn't tell you 'Mimbo' would have."
WHERE'S YOUR MIMBO NOW??
He's probably plannin' revenge upon your hind end since you maimed his name, Urrrica. So much for the "Don't go gettin' pissy either..." part eh?
Pissy Pissy Pissy, Erica is a sissy... ;~
Posted by: RedNeck at December 13, 2007 9:39 PMI laughed, I cried, I saw GgggOOOOODDDDDd. I smiled for the first time today! I will never be able to look at Eric, or read his blog, without this running in the back of my mind!
Posted by: Michelle at December 14, 2007 10:34 AMGood song.
Like Roy.
But not as much as Hank Jr.
Dear 'Neck,
Re: “He’s probably plannin' revenge upon your hind end since you maimed his name, Urrrica.”
*ahem*
“In a comment somewhere on Eric’s site a while back, I mistyped my name as ‘Mimbo’. Funny name, that, at least for an American human being.”
What I find funny is that, unless someone actually sends Hairboy/Mimbo the link to this comments thread, my money says he’s completely oblivious to anyone even sayin’ shit about him.
For the record, just in case I do need to clear my name: ’Neck started it!
Posted by: Urrrica at December 16, 2007 6:29 PM..... calm down, you two.... you know that we love you both..... and hey, that goes for you to Velociman...... but give us a bell, man...... I'll stick the grill on and get the steaks ready....
.... one cannot be an artist in the mountains without the occasion trip or two....
Posted by: Eric at December 16, 2007 9:25 PMMimbo don't miss much.
Posted by: Mimbo at December 21, 2007 11:55 PMbusted!
