so what is in that guys's mouth (the guy in your avatar, from the Exile cover)..?
They look like pool/billiards balls to me...
you know mac_d that's always been a mystery to me too..i've always thought of them as being rocks of roughly spherical shape but maybe they are wooden balls
i've also wondered many times what the hell he's doing with them in his mouth anyway
is it some form of punishment? a rite of passage? a propitiatory (sp?) act or simply a bizarre party trick or some kind of "schtick" - you know some kind of "freak show" exhibit or something |

Why does he look sad?
Further, does the thing in the right corner represent a can of campbell soup or a can of mecca-cola?
he's sad because he's blue (or his he blue because he's sad?)
campbell soup i think but ultimately i would say it can be anything you want it to be |

What is the best Daddy Cool album?
"sex and dope and rock and roll: teenage heaven"
What is the best Daddy Cool song?
hard to pick one but four choice cuts:
1. Eagle Rock
2. Baby let Me Bang Your Box
3.Daddy Who? Daddy Cool
4.Teenage Blues
Are those guys kidding or what?
hard to tell - certainly they were all about having fun/being outrageous but there is a definite love and respect of the music there -
what do you think?? - as always i'd be more than interested in your thoughts/opinions

i think the freak show thing is right...
I believe R Frank's idea was to juxtapose/blend the band members with the sideshow freaks found in the US... you know, playing off the whole "exile" concept... |

yeah mac_d - as you no doubt probably know the front cover of exile is in fact a photo of a tattoo parlour wall - which wall is covered in the pics. you see - they all have a vaudeville/ freakshow/ showbiz kind of feel to them |

here's one;
why does your post counter keep saying 1882, no matter how many questions you reply to? |

Well, SIA, I mainly ask because I have only heard Teenage Heaven album, not the Daddy Who Daddy Cool album. It always strikes me as weird when they go into their Mothers of Invention stuff, though. I mean, if they're tryin' to be the Australian Flamin' Groovies they do a pretty damn good job of it, sonically and graphically (nice jacket on Teenage Heaven even if it ain't no Teenage Head) and all of a sudden we're in the land of Flo and Eddie or something. I find this fascinating sometimes and othertimes I am like what is this damn stuff about "Teen Love So Fine" and that sub Doctor Teethian "Please America Give Me lots of money" business? And I stop listening. Weird, interesting record, though. Can't quite draw a bead on it.
Whatever else I have to say, though, "Teenage Blues" rips.
Although it does leave me to wonder whether Stonesian agenda and Mothers of Invention agenda are mutually exclusive, so I guess I will ask you if they are.
Are they?
The Boys or the Hollywood Brats?

as usual nasty your perceptions indeed your knowledge of the band's music is deeper and more comprehensive than my own for me i've just always liked that strain of the '50's that permeated their best tunes
to attempt to answer your question i would say they are generally exclusive of each other - tho there is a certain point where outrage for outrage's sake is common to both (cf. zappa having marines trash a doll as some kind of comment on vietnam with jaggers "goose stepping" at that mid '60's german show or the promo video they did in drag with bill in the wheelchair)
interesting you should spot that "mothers" vibe- before they were "daddy cool" the core of the band went under the name of "sons of the vegetel mother"

glencar, i note with interest that you are aware of the fact that an election is coming up - disproves the often cited lack of awareness by US citizens of anything that goes on outside the borders of the USA
the short answer to your question is "no-one"
the long answer is,well,...long and if i had the time i'd go into it 'tho a discourse on the nature of australian politics would most likely bore every-one stupid (even the australian posters here)or simply go un-read
having said that there is no doubt it will be one of the most interesting elections here for quite sometime |

I guess the counter at the bottom of each post doesn't show what level you were when you sent that post. It just shows the level you are at when the page is updated. |

Perhaps I can venture to shed light on the mystery of SS's number of posts as is displayed in the profile. The profile i s created by the message board host Novogate and is maintained by an automatic counter, so whenever the system updates itself all of SS's posts ever that are not in the archives will display his current post number, just like a person's avatar in every thread changes when the user changes his or her avatar.
Whatever the current total showing on any and all threads is the number that SIA currently has.
Nicky or Stu?
Darryl or Bill?
Mary Clayton or Clydie King?
Coming Down Again or All About You?
Loving Cup or Gimme Little Drink?
Need A Yellow Cab or Let's Go Steady?
Claudine Fast or Claudine Slow?
Going to Memphis or You Should Have Seen Her Ass?
High & Dry or It's Not Easy?
Carol or Little Queenie (Ya Ya's is your source)?
