buzz kills.

I just thought maybe the "poorly aging" thing was more regarding the old "ain't like it used to be" tirade about the industry.

― Brandon Mitchell (A.H.), Thursday, 28 October 2004 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Hall has definitely filled out.

― shookout (shookout), Thursday, 28 October 2004 22:41 (twenty-one years ago)

i'd still do them both.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Thursday, 28 October 2004 22:42 (twenty-one years ago)

something about that particular still. okay, maybe not poorly aging, how about dopey?

― frankE (frankE), Thursday, 28 October 2004 22:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Ohhh my poor little Johnny looks like a reject from the West Palm Beach Junior College production of ANNIE! And I luv John, and I luv WPJC, and I even liked Carol Burnette in ANNIE, but SOME PEOPLE JUT NEED MUSTACHES! Even yall kids know it's true! The Beastie Boys in their "Sabotoge" video looked their best *ever*! That's why DVDs have take over from rock music, cos the latter's all barelip poster chidren now! Or else they've got those anal goatees, or the Weezer fella with that missing link beard and whatever happened to himm HEY

Why is it again, that Hall & Oates once upon a time were really popular, and then suddenly...they weren't? And whatever happened to their saxophonist/keyboardist guy with the slicked-back hair and sunglasses? That guy cracked me up.

I think they took too long a break or something. Up through Big Bam Boom in 1984 they were still fairly omnipresent, the following year was the live album with Ruffin and Kendricks while Paul Young had an American hit with "Every Time You Go Away" -- then in 1986 Hall did the solo album with the weird long name and the "Dreamtime" song, which got some MTV airplay and I think that was it. Oo Yeah! was the 'reunion' album of sorts in 1988 and I recall the lead single briefly getting some airplay and MTV screening but I think they were just a little and then by implication a lot out of sync at that point.

I mean think about it not just John: Tom Selleck, even Tony Orlando for a while: they neeed the stache and so do I (on them, and *then* on me! Hee!)

― Big Fat Drunk Chick With A BoomBox, Friday, 29 October 2004 04:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Not just John I mean think about it even Tom Selleck when he doesn't have one, Tony Orlando too: they neeed the stache, and so do I (on them, and *then* on me! Hee)

― Big Fat Drunk Chick With A, Friday, 29 October 2004 04:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh this thing! Sorry!

Entropy. Deal.

They don't look THAT bad. I'm only posting here because I happen to be listening to H2O right now, for the first time in a while.

Doesn't Oates guest-sing on the new Handsome Boy Modeling School record?
