Yeah. Some days here are half-education and half-memory lane. Nice mix and no one trying to outdo anyone else.

I agree, I think we've managed to foster a decent atmosphere of people who just want to share Tracks with each other and appreciate whatever music comes their way.

Great choice! They were my first concert in 1997 in Rome, 70,000 people!! Delirium. Fantastic. I love them.

Awesome! Sounds like a wicked concert, where in Rome did they play? Any cool stadium's or interesting venue?

yeah, these guys are getting old though. I just heard bono has eye problems, thats why he is always squinting or wearing sunglasses.

There may be some aches and pains due to age. He should be 60 years old, but he will still be Bono! Maybe he can do concerts until he is 80; he'll be a highlander like Mick Jagger.😂

At that time they played at an old military airport in Rome, called Roma Urbe, and it was the first date in Italy of the Popmart Tour. Now concerts in Rome are held in the city's stadium, the Stadio Olimpico.

Double the fun! This screams 70s/80s punk to me. Sort of like the clash, I think I can hear that kinda influence in there somewhere.

Closer to Somewhere - The Retrograde

Another single released this week for the Retrograde's first album! It should be coming out the end of June.

21 sats \ 3 replies \ @Public_N_M_E OP 24 May

I getting hype for this album now, these last two tracks have been great!

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @astro_penguin 24 May

I'm pretty sure it's going to be good if the singles are anything close to the rest of the album! I'll try to remember to create a post when it comes out.

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @Public_N_M_E OP 24 May

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, I hope the singles aren't just all the best tracks and the rest of the album is just filler, so many albums fall into that trap. But I remain optimistic!

Yeah, too many groups do that unfortunately. We'll find out I guess!

Listening to Ice Cube this morning and saw this in the comments.

So when, exactly, did Ice Cube have his Good Day? Lets find out:

CLUE 1: “went to short dogs house, they was watching Yo MTV RAPS.”

Yo MTV RAPS first aired: Aug 6th 1988

CLUE 2: Ice Cubes single “today was a good day” released on: Feb 23 1993

CLUE 3: ”The Lakers beat the Super Sonics” Dates between Yo MTV Raps air date (AUGUST 6, 1988) and the release of the single (FEBRUARY 23 1993) where the Lakers beat the Super Sonics: Nov 11, 1988: 114-103 Nov 30, 1988: 110-106 Apr 4, 1989: 115-97 Apr 23, 1989: 121-117 Jan 17, 1990: 100-90 Feb 28, 1990: 112-107 Mar 25, 1990: 116-94 Apr 17, 1990: 102-101 Jan 18, 1991: 105-96 Mar 24, 1991: 113-96 Apr 21, 1991: 103-100 Jan 20, 1992: 116-110

CLUE 4: Dates of those Laker wins over SuperSonics where it was a clear day with no Smog: Nov 30, 1988 Apr 4, 1989 Jan 18, 1991 Jan 20, 1992

CLUE 5: “Got a beep from Kim, and she can ** all night.” Beepers weren’t adopted by mobile phone companies until the 1990s. Dates left where mobile beepers were availible to public: Jan 18, 1991 Jan 20, 1992

CLUE 6: Ice Cube starred in the film “Boyz in the hood” that released late Summer of 1991, but was being filmed from mid-late 1990 to early 1991. Ice Cube was busy on set filming the movie Jan 18, 1991. Too busy to be lounging around the streets with no plans.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The ONLY day where: Yo MTV Raps was on air, It was a clear and smogless day, Beepers were commercially sold, The Lakers beat the SuperSonics, and Ice Cube had no events to attend was…

JANUARY 20, 1992 'National Good Day Day' 😂😂😂

Oooooo that's awesome! Amazing talent!

As far as beatboxing goes, DLow or Codfish might be my favourites, such great musicality. Their Vs in 2018 was awesome!

Good day Stackers!!

Every once in a while the great Bowie needs to be remembered. He always puts me in a good mood. I didn't know which masterpiece to choose, in the end I opted for The Man Who Sold The World.
