Ask RM a Question

Do my cat and my girlfriend count as items?

Women are always items, except in this scenario

[BurtReynolds]

My skulls, my books, and my hard drives.

[Jorge]

I would not set my house on fire from any side.

Our insurance policies covers the immediate things that come to mind, so I’d probably skip those and go for sentimental things:

1. There’s a ceremonial textile from our wedding that the Dalai Llama spilled tea on; I would grab that.

2. There’s a 7” record my dad put out in the 80s, and I’m on the cover. I would grab that too.

3. I have a basket with all sorts of important documents in them — SS card, passport, tax papers, stuff like that — that I’d probably grab just to make life easier.

Hang on, "a basket with several items in it" is CHEATING

[lennytheweedwhacker]

A woman stuffed into a basket is acceptable though

It’s a great power pop song b/w another great power pop song. I genuinely love the songs; my dad wrote them and sang on them, and played some of the instruments. He sounds great.

I’d gladly share them except A) they’re honestly not streaming anywhere, to my knowledge and B) I don’t want to doxx myself. But they’re somewhere between Boston and Jackson Browne, with (probably accidental) shades of Big Star.

[VinylGuy]

Guys; favorite perfume or cologne?

That’s awesome!

Papa Wease was big into trying to sell songs in the early to mid 80’s. He actually sold one and we got to go to the studio when it was cut. It made number 100 for one week in the Country Hot 100. He has the 45 framed in his home studio along with the only royalty check he ever got. To my knowledge, that’s the only known copy around.

Dude that’s awesome! Nashville production? Does he have the masters still?

My dad had another band in the 70s that was ultra proggy. All the recordings are rehearsal tapes so they’re not as easy to enjoy, but the music is fantastic. Like Yes before they sucked.

It wasn’t cut in Nashville. It was Brazil, Indiana. He didn’t get the masters. I imagine the producer or whoever bought the tune from him has them. I’ve never really talked to him much about details like that. Topics for next conversation for sure.

It’s like Suspect208 up in here.

Have you ever looked it up in ASCAP or BMI or whatever? Would be interested to see who controls the publishing now.
