daddio 2704 Report post Posted July 18, 2011 You know you're old when the first "pop" record you bought was a 78 by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers. And the first "45" you bought was Roy Orbison - "Blue Angel" and there was a division in your high school class as between Elvis and Buddy Holly. btw - Rory Gallagher was an Irish blues guitarist. Ireland produces great musicians, singers, writers, playwrights, poets and beer. I wonder if the beer has something to do with it???? Almost forgot - football (soccer) players.

He replys that you should lie about your age and you think about cutting your age in half, then think your still too old. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted July 19, 2011 ahhhhhh.... here is some trivia for ya.... the "original" Saturday Night Live came out on ABC, just a few weeks before NBC launched "Saturday Night". ABC's SNL lasted 18 episodes.... and when it was cancelled, NBC changed the name of their show from "Saturday Night" to "Saturday Night Live" ABC SNL had Howard Cosell as its permanent host and featured the "the prime time players" including Bill Murray and Christopher Guest. NBC countered with the "not ready for prime time players." First musical act on the ABC SNL??? Who other than the Bay City Rollers performing...

Scotland's most embarrassing export, I would say. Another band we listened that we at least admitted to listening to then, but not now. But for some reason we do go to the tribute shows and say it's because our auntie wanted to go. Edited July 20, 2011 by Mature Angela Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
