"He could do Boston, he could do Philly, he could do DC..."

Despite the enthusiasm of one man's experience at a Levon Helm concert, his may be about as hard to get through as that Billy Idol concert from Wolfgang's Vault. At least it's a lot shorter. While you're taking this challenge, is there anyone you would less like hearing discuss an artist you love than Don Imus?

I concur.
That was Great! As the clip went on, I thought “This is fantastic… no, it’s incredibly fantastic… no, it’s scrumtrulecent!” but then I realized that the Greatness of that clip can only be summarized by one word, and that word is GREAT!

I bet more than a few of you are now willing to go back and take that Billy Idol challenge, no?

I cried while watching that guy go on about the Levon Helm concert. How about you?

Unbelievable that I just sat through that. How about the guy on the left, who does nothing but shake his head, like he can't believe it? Unbelievable. I can't describe it.

Maybe we need a new Rocktown term: Great. With this clip to define it.

Mwall, I'm enjoying a hearty laugh thanks to your recommendation for a new RTH Glossary term. When I stop laughing we'll put that under consideration!

Two things:

1. Am I the only guy who looks at Don Imus and sees a 78 year-old bald guy in a wig and inexplicable cowboy paraphernalia? It's like he's going to a Haloween party, every day.

2. The total lack of content in this -- what, five minutes -- of teevee is unbelievable. Really, who listens to this guy, and why?!

Waddle-doodle-doddum-doodle-doddle-deedum-day,

The guy from Govt. Mule singing "I Shall Be Released". Unbelievable. If you were there, you were at an experience.

I don't like t put people down for their appearances, but Imus looks like a frail, liver-spotted Mr. Burns under that cowboy hat. He needed TV? And just painful to listen to. Thank goodness Jack Benny isn't around to hear the medium abused this way.
