Phil Lesh of the Grateful Dead.  One of the most overrated acts ever.

I agree with ya. They rank among the most overrated bands of all time. Right up there with Pink Floyd, Kiss, U2, and Nickelback.

Kiss is the worst.  They took their gimmicky make up schtick from Alice Cooper and still couldn't put together some great songs.  Pathetic.

I think they are all pretty shitty. But, I will not argue that.

I saw a movie on Netflix about the Jew who founded Casablanca records. Kiss was one of the first acts they signed, so they had actors playing Gene and Paul. They said several times in the movie that every Kiss song had the same four chords. I thought, why isn't that money hungry Jew Gene not using their asses. It turns out he got a cut of the revenue from the movie. So even Gene does not deny Kiss had limited talent.

Simmons is a dipshit.  He gets himself a shiksa like Shannon Tweed and thinks he's all that.

He says he has about 4600 women like Tweed. My old lady says he is frickin ugly.

I think he's full of shit about all that alleged poon he got.  Hell, Wilt Chamberlain claimed to have plowed over 20K women which everyone didn't believe.

It is possible. I have had a fair number of gals myself and I did not wear make up and high heels. But, Gene is a bullshitter. I don't know.

Trust me, he didn't bag as many as he says.

No doubt.

Teri Garr, the offbeat comic actor of 'Young Frankenstein' and 'Tootsie,' has died


Teri Garr, the quirky comedy actor who rose from background dancer in Elvis Presley movies to co-star of such favorites as "Young Frankenstein" and "Tootsie," has died. She was 79.

Garr died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis "surrounded by family and friends," said publicist Heidi Schaeffer. Garr battled other health problems in recent years and underwent an operation in January 2007 to repair an aneurysm.

Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her "truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn't have loved her more" and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: "Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better."

Although best known for comedy, Garr showed in such films as "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," "The Black Stallion" and "The Escape Artist" that she could handle drama equally well.

She had a flair for spontaneous humor, often playing David Letterman's foil during guest appearances on NBC's "Late Night With David Letterman" early in its run.

Her appearances became so frequent, and the pair's good-natured bickering so convincing, that for a time rumors cropped up that they were romantically involved. Years later, Letterman credited those early appearances with helping make the show a hit.

She was great in Star Wars.

Quincy Jones, the musical polymath who shaped pop culture for more than six decades as a producer, arranger, songwriter, and entertainer, died on November 3, 2024, at his home in Bel Air. He was 91.
