Revelations, The other shoe and Good byes!

Good byes:
I hate them! This is one of my all time favorite songs. So, crank up the volume.......

*UPDATE:
TILL THE NEXT GOODBYE!
(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Honey, is there any place that you would like to eat?
I know a coffee shop down on Fifty-Second Street
And I don't need no fancy food and I don't need no fancy wine
And I sure don't need the tears you cry
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time we say goodbye
I'll be thinking of you
I'll be thinking of you

Yeah, a movie house on Forty-Second Street
Ain't a very likely place for you and I to meet
Watching the snow swirl around your hair and around your feet
And I'm thinking to myself she surely looks a treat
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time that we kiss goodnight
I'll be thinking of you
I'll be thinking of you

I can't go on like this, can ya? Can ya?
I can't go on like this, can ya?

You give me a cure all from New Orleans
Now that's a recipe I sure do need
Some cider vinegar and some elderberry wine
May cure all your ills, but it can't cure mine
Your Lou'siana recipes have let me down
Your Lou'siana recipes have surely let me down
Till the next time we say goodbye
Drink to it
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time that we kiss goodnight
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time we say goodbye
Till the next time that we kiss goodnight
I'll be thinking of you
I'll be thinking of you

Move over, Regis and Kelly!!!

For those of you coming here, to find out about Pete Townshend or the Regis and Kelly show, I've got something better for you.
Here is a snippet of In The Attic starring Rachel Fuller and Mikey Cuthbert.

This unique and innovative show, mixes music and talk. What is seems to be "off the cuff" really is cleverly crafted.
According to Pete Townshend, In The Attic is "being chased by all the big internet movie companies planning to start streaming late this year." Rachel Fuller, along with her bestfriend, and co-host Mikey Cuthbert, has "caught onto the new wave is of video streaming", and has predicted video streaming to be the next BIG THING.

The best part of these live webcasts, is that they are interactive. It has been noted, by Rachel herself, that folks are tuning into the program, for the entire 2 hours of broadcast. I have to admit, I have left my computer on, streaming the broadcast for the whole show. Even if I was "in and out", I would make every effort to get back to my "small" screen; I didn't want to miss out on all the fun.

Mikey Cuthbert's greatest contribution to the show, is that he is genuine. He is the "everyman" on the program, and gives ITA (as In The Attic is known) it's air of authenticity. While Rachel, can be self-deprecating, she is confident. She is also the partner and girlfriend of one of the most iconic Rock Stars in history. So, as down to earth and sweet as she is, some will still view her as formidable, and maybe intimidating. This is where Mikey, as the everyman is a great influence on the show's appeal. He represents Rachel's life, before her involvement with Pete Townshend. She has been friends with Mikey since her teens. She hasn't left him behind, or ignored his vast talents. Rachel, has instead, brought along her friend for the ride of his life. Through Mikey's experience, we see both Rachel and Pete, being, encouraging and nurturing toward his singing and sonwriting career. We also see them giving other new muscians, like The Vibrants, recognition too. Though Pete has instructed Mikey to drive harder, in his songwriting efforts, he did, recently give Mikey a positive review on his brilliant perfomance at the LA Attic Jam.

.incourage his fellow bloggers to "Give Me A Shout", or a GMAS, and give him a shout, we do!

For Hypocrites

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the head
You better get yourself together
Pretty soon, you're gonna be dead
What in the world you thinking of
Laughing in the face of love
What on earth you tryin' to do
It's up to you, yeah you

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna look you right in the face
You better get yourself together darlin'
Join the human race
How in the world you gonna see
Laughin' at fools like me
Who in the heck d'you think you are
A super star
Well, alright you are

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Ev'ryone you meet
Why in the world are we here?
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there
When you're ev'rywhere
Come and get your share

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Come on and on and on on
Yeah yeah alright ah ha

Wasn't John Lennon, the best at telling people off?
So many of his songs were like this.
I've a little John Lennon in me, I hate hypocrites too!
Miss you Johnny :(

for the love of Pete Townshend

I set this up in the event I have anything relevant for Pete Townshend to reply to. I have high hopes, but low expectations. I know that doesn't make sense. But this is MY blog and I can say what I want. Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere!!!
