NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!

Sorry about that bad party experience Rossy. Me and the other half swore off these parties years ago. As for expectations for 2013...it will be what it will be! smile

recaredo, me and dipsey got issued twelve grapes as well in the pub we were in at the time, a friend gave us them... I managed to get three down in the given time, or I would have choked on the skins ( he didnt peel them) how do you get twelve down in the space of the "bongs" from big ben?

Hey Rossy, I’m glad you had the twelve grapes to greet the New Year.

It’s just a matter of practice. You have to chew the grapes quickly, and swallow them two by two. Meanwhile always one grape has to be prepared in your hand for the next bell.

And the most important thing: Avoid laughing, it can be really dangerous! smile

Two grapes in your mouth at once and one in your hand? when you have had a skinfull on new years eve? its a recipe for trouble.

Dipsey played safe and just had one grape in her mouth at a time.

cue pianojoy...

Oooooh nooooooo! Piano Joy continues to show extraordinary restraint. Besides....the thoughts that really popped into her head could only be repeated in a swanky bar , after several drinks!

Griffin, I saw this last week and I was hoping you got to see it! It was the Kennedy Center Honors, and one of the honorees was Buddy Guy. I know Tracy Chapman is a favorite of yours. I'm pretty sure a few others of you will like this too. Bonnie Raitt and Jeff Beck also took part in his tribute.

Of course, my main reason for watching the Kennedy Center Honors was to get glimpses of my favorite older man crush, Jimmy Page. Led Zeppelin was also honored.
I don't care if Jimmy's about to turn 69!

Lenny Kravitz, Ann and Nancy Wilson from Heart, Kid Rock and the Foo Fighters all paid tribute. It was a good set(except for the part with Kid Rock).


I am very tired of Stairway to Heaven, and initially groaned when I heard it start. It was actually a great performance, and Jason Bonham played the drums. It starts out small and turns into quite the production. Watching Yo-Yo Ma rock out to it was fun too.


I'm sure BillyO wouldn't mind me having an affair with Jimmy Page, if he could come play Jimmy's guitars hehehe

Aimee, thanks for providing some of the highlights of the Kennedy Center Honors. I didn't get to see it, and am sorry I missed it. I truly appreciate your postings of some of my favorite artists. I enjoyed them all.

Good morning everyone. I'm just dropping by briefly today, though I've listened to and enjoyed all of the postings. Right now I'm trying to catch up on some piano time before I have my lesson. I'm also working on the Sunday postings. I'll check in again later!

Has anyone else made a stupid new years resolution that they have no chance of sticking to?
Or maybe broken it allready?

I am on the brink because I was "meant" to give up ammeretto , which was a hasty and ill conceived resolution if ever there was one.. methinks allready.
