The KNICKS SUCK

FUCK YOU KNICKS !!!

YOU SUCK !!!

Yeah, "FUCK YOU KNICKS" I don't want to go into a whole lot of detail right now. All i can say is that New York Knicks manegement SUCKS, "Big Time." They had a Golden Opportunity to cash in on one of NBA History's Most Phenomanal Stories and players eve, and they blew it. They let the Houston rockets beat and Out-Bid a new york team. This is EXCEPTIONABLE. Jeremy Lin came out of no where last year and set the Sports and Basketball World on Fire with his lightning fast rise to fame and prominence.  no body has seen anything like this since Michael Jordan. No, I'm not comparing him with Michael Jordan or Jordan great skills as a basketball player. Jordan may very well be the Greatest basketball Player of All-Time. lin will never be any where near as great as Jordan. But the story and sudden success and the whole Linsanity is every bit the equal to Jordan's story, maybe even more phenomenal. 

The Knicks have NEVER EVER had any player with the Marquee Power and prominence of Lin.  yes the Knicks have had many wonderful players over the years; Bill Bradley, Earl Monroe, Walt "Clyde" Frazier, Patrick Ewing who in all those years with the Knicks could Never lead them to a NBA Title wihich the Knicks haven't won since 1973. Sad! The "KNICKS SUCK"

Maybe Jeremy Lin and his teammates could have brought the Knicks their "FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP in 40 YEARS" Maybe not. But at least they could have tried with the type of ball player who only comes around once or twice to a team in a lifetime. that player was Jeremy Lin. The Knicks let him get away, and for that, guess what, "The KNICKS SUCK." !!!!!

5 Top Reasons The KNICKS SUCK

  

1)  They Let Jeremy Lin Go

2)  They Let The Rockets Out Bid Them

3)  They didn't give Jeremy Lin the Money

4)  The deliberately made NY lose

5)  They past up a Golden Opportunity

The ACE HOTEL ..and NEW YORK'S BEST WRITERS LOUNGE

WORLD'S PRETTIEST BARISTA at The ACE

Stumptown Coffee

 Ace-ing it at the Ace, The Ace Hotel that is. One of the coolest hotels in town. New York Town. The Ace Hotel on Broadway at 29th Street is Ultra Cool and the place to stay for a plethora of creative types from around the country, The World. 
      Yes the Ace is very cool. It's quite a great addition to New York City and the neighbor this fine hotel is located in, The Flatiron District, named after the famed icon triangular building on the triangle piece of land where Fifth Avenue and Broadway intersect each other at 23rd Street with 22nd Street at the south end of The Flatiron Building, one of the World's First Skyscrapers. The Flatiron Building completed in 1902 is 22 stories high, and along with The Chrysler Building, and The Empire State Building gives New York a trio of The Three Most Beautiful Skyscrapers in the World. Three, it's not a lot, but in no other place in the World does there exist one other building with the beauty of one of these, not one and we have Three. Quite a feat. Yes the Eiffel Tower in Paris is beautiful and as icon as any building can be and is equal in beauty to any of our Great Trio, but technically it's not a skyscraper, but a tower, and yes we do love it.
      Anyway, got off on one of my tangents there. Sorry. Back to the Ace Hotel. Besides being a great place for tourist and business people from all around the country and world to come to and stay in New York., it's great for New Yorker's, many of whom dine at the Breslin or John Dory Restaurant. Many more, hundreds drop into Stumptown Coffe at the Ace for a solid fix of Espresso, Cappuccino, or American Coffee. Stumptown is known to make some of the finest coffee in town, and I'll attest to that, they're great.
       But, my favorite thing about the Ace Hotel in the Flatiron District is the wonderful lounge they have there. The Lounge at The Ace hotel is a magnet for writers, Dot.com Start-Up People, and all sorts of creative types, musicians, bloggers, poets, and what not, but mostly writer. And there is quite a lot of good energy and a great vibe as a result.
     And the people are quite accommodating, providing two large writing tables and one small one, and the largest one has tons of electrical outlets for your Laptop and other devices. Thank You Ace Hotel. Thanks for being so thoughtful, for creating such a great place, and..
      The Ace has actually help transform this stretch of Broadway filled with wholesalers selling; jewelry, handbags, watches, hats, baseball caps, T-Shirts, toys and all sorts of things. But now as a result of the Ace, two more cool boutique hotels have popped up in the neighborhood. You have the Flatiron Hotel about 3 blocks down Broadway, which is pretty cool, but quiet and has not garnered a lot of buzz or press as its neighbor the Nomad Hotel has across the Street.
      So there you have it, The Ace Hotel and inside The Breslin, World Class Coffee at Stumptown, a cool Submarine Sandwich place Sub 7, and the coolest writing lounge in town, The Lounge at the Ace Hotel. Thanks again Ace people, we Luv ya.

SET LIST Mohegan Sun June 17, 2012

Ringo Starr made several changes from the songs he sang from his most recent tour in Brazil for the first show on the 12th All-Starr Band at Fallsview Casino Resort Thursday. Six songs, which amounted to almost half of what he sang in Brazilia at his most recent show last November, were changed.

The show opened with the Carl Perkins song “Matchbox, instead of “It Don't Come Easy,” as it did in South America. That song was played second. Third was another new-to-the-tour song, Wings” from his latest album“Ringo 2012.”

Next came the first songs by members of the band. In order, it was Todd Rundgren's “Hello It's Me,” “Gregg Rolie with “Evil Ways,” Steve Lukather with “Rosanna” and Richard Page with “Kyrie.”

Ringo Starr came back next with “Don't Pass Me By,” then Rundgren sang “Bang the Drum All Day.” Then, it was Starr's turn next again with “Boys” and “Yellow Submarine.”

Rolie's stepped forward again with “Black Magic Woman,” then Ringo with “Anthem,” another song from “Ringo 2012,” then “I'm the Greatest.” Richard Page then played a brand-new song called  “You Are Mine.”

MICK JAGGER on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE ..SNL .. Is FRIGGIN FUNNY

A YOUNG MICK JAGGER

OLDER MICK JAGGER

SNL APPEARANCE May 19, 20012

Mick Jagger hosted SNL last night. He was funny as hell. Just great and in quite a number of skits. Jagger played a Nerd out with friend at a Karaoke Bar watching one performer after the other do Stones songs. The two girls and 1 guy Jagger's nerdy character was with were going ga-ga over each performer, praising how great they were, that the looked (un-true) just like Mick Jagger and sounded just like him, even better. All the while Jagger's Nerdy Character is saying he doesn't think so and that he disagrees and doesn't like the performers. Friggin Hilarious.

Mick also plays a flamboyant actor who's on a game show like password. his character is supposed to be actor who plays James Bond type characters but in real life he is nothing like his on screen suave macho Bond-Type but a slightly nerdy and feminine type with gay tendencies and a total opposite from the on screen persona.

Jagger is also Hilarious on an American Idol type show which sees Mick playing Steven Tyler. Again Mick was Friggin Hilarious. Maybe Mick should think about a second career as a Comedic Actor, "he's great."

Being a huge Rolling Stones and Mick Jagger fan I hate to say it but Mick's singing wasn't nearly as good or enjoyable (for me anyway) as his Funny As Hell comedic acting. I totally enjoyed Mick acting in the skits. i was almost rolling on the floor. Just brilliant as the English love to say. Jagger's singing performances on the show however I didn't really enjoy that much. I'm truly sorry to say. But I must. I wanted to, but didn't. Hey I love Mick and the Stones, but the singing performances last night just didn't cut it for me. Sorry Mick.  You gotta get yourself in some Funny-Ass movie with Mike Myers or somebody like that. You'd be great. Anyway, loved seeing Mick on Saturday Night Live, and ......

HOWARD STERN THE WORLD'S BIGGEST DOUCHEBAG PROVES ONCE AGAIN on LATE NIGHT With JIMMY FALLON WHAT A BIG DOUCHEBAG HE TRULY IS

FIRST CLASS DOUCHEBAG !!!

 

 

HOWRD STERN "THE WORLD'SBIGGEST DOCUHEBAG

THE WORLD'S BIGGEST DOUCHEBAG HOWARD STERN 

With JIMMY FALLON on LATE NIGHT With JIMMY FALLON

STERN PROVES ONCE AGAIN WHAT A BIG DOUCHEBAG ASSHOLE HE IS

 

 

 

Howard Stern "The World's Biggest Douchebag" proved once again on National Televison on late Night With Jimmy Fallon what a Big Asshole and total Douchebag he is. The Moronic Stern who is Famous for his Idiotic Behavior, thinking he is Funny by Mocking form Rolling Stones Guitarist the great Mick Taylor for leaving The Stones. Stern in a mocking manner that was in horrible taste (well we All Know Stern is Devoid of any Good taste) kept harping Taylor about why he left The rolling Stones and what a bad move it was and what was he thinking made a Complete and Total Asshole out of himself. Not unusual for The Asshole Stern. In doing so I'm sure Jimmy Fallon who invited Taylor on the show was Mortified to say the least. The Idiot Stern kept going on-and-on until Taylor shooed him off and told him "Why don't you get on with your interview Howard?"

It's unfortunate to have to see such nonsense from morons like Howard Stern who because of the fact that a good part of this country's populace how have such bad taste themselves have made the Douchebag Howard Stern obscenely and undeservedly Rich. As millions watch and listen to the Buffoon, while Taylor one of the World's Greatest Guitarist is not, but in America these days  I guess if you're an Asshole like Stern or if you make shitty Music like hundreds of Rap and 

Hip Hop artists the masses of Culture-Less Tasteless citizens like and buy the crap (Crap Rap), thus making Idiots like Howards Stern and Hi-Hop Artist Rich and Famous. Kind of disgusting when you think about it. Such is the World we live in, one of terribly made music (past 15 years) and Idiot Asshole Millionaires like Howard Stern.

ROLLING STONES "SOME GIRLS" Performed By NEW YORK SUPER GROUP THE BOWER BANGS

            New York Super Group THE BOWERY BANGS knocked it out at Tammany Hall on The Lower East Side of New York last night. The performed a Rockin F_ckin Awesome Show of the 1978 Rolling Stones album "SOME GIRLS." Yeah it was Rockin. Yeah it was Fuckin Awesome and some thing this great city of ours and country needs more of. What's that? More shows and great music like this. 

        I've said it before and I'll say it again, the music of this current generation is awful. Absolutely atrocious. Why is it? They just don't make good music any more. Why? It's an absolute mystery to me. When I was growing up in the later part of the 60's, 70's , and even 80's there was a plethora of great bands so vast that in comparison to today and the past 15 years or so of such horrible music, mostly Rap and Hip Hop (It's not really music, just awful noise) and other nasty genres of music, "I don't even know what they're called." yes a plethora of GREAT BANDS and Great Music like, The Beatles, the Mamas and The Papas, The Allman Brothers, T-Rex, Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan, Al Green, The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, The Stylistics, The Delphonics, Smokey Robinson, all of R&B, Motown, The Philadelphia Sound, Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Frank Sinatra, other solo artists, and on-and-on. Hundreds of Great artist, and now? These days, what have you got? Well maybe one or two good artists here and there, like Alicia Keyes, Cold Play, Cee Lo Green, and? Well I know there are a few others, but I can't thing of any right now. There are so FEW and far far far in-between good artists. You get my point. And oh, I saved the best for last, of yesterday when Music was great and we had a tremendous abundance of it, the best for last, back then in the 60's, 70's, 80's and even now, Thee Greatest Rock N' Roll Band of All-Time, ladies and gentlemen The Rolling Stones. Rock On!

      Hey let's get back to The Bowery Bang and what they did the last few days in New York where they performed two great shows of the Stones Great 1978 album SOME GIRLS. One of the Stones best with such wonderful Iconic songs as Shattered, Beast of Burden, When The Whip Comes Down. Some Girls (Title Song), Miss You, and others. Great Stuff to say the least. Thge Bowery Bang put on a nice little show of "Some Girls" at Riff (formerly the legendary CBGB'S) on Saturday afternoon and then again last night at Tammany Hall on The Lower East Side. The Band has a very good drummer, two fine guitarist (sometimes 3) and One Kick Ass Bass player who really Rocks It Out on tile song "Some Girls" sung by Briana Layon does a Kick Ass job as well in lead vocals on this number. The album is performed song by song, side A then side B, cover to cover, and The Band is friggin awesome. The songs are song by multiple singers, 

David Pattillo kicks the show off with a Awesome rendition of Miss You. He really Rocks It Out and the large crowd at both shows just went wild and were totally goovin (including this Guy) on the Davids sing and the bands artistry. Sexy Argentinian singer Flor Zabala Fuckin Rocked on 

"When The Whip Comes Down" and was so Dam Good, dare I say she performs this song better than Mick. Quite possibly, and I'm sure many at the show would agree. Well anyway Flor belted it out with Hot Energy ans Sexiness while the band screamed behind her, Guitars cranking it out with cool throbbing Bass Line, the drummer keeping a hard beat. It was Heaven for any Rock Fan ans especially those of Stones and there were many, groovin to the Show, The Band, The Rolling Stones, "Some Girls" and Flor singing, "When The Whip Comes Down" Sexy and Hot.
      Everyone was havin a great time, Daddy Long Legs was jammin on Harmonica and sang a song too, with a real nice job on Far Away Eyes. Sweet. Shane Rucker sang lead on Beast of Burden, everyone sang on a lively version of Shattered, and the Bowery Bangs finished up this great show with one more fine rendition of "Miss You," as David Pattillo called everyone up on the stage. He took the lead on Miss You with everyone else joining in. It was a hot Jam as The Bowery Bang had Tammany Hall Rockin to the max. Just great, and something this city and America needs a lot more of, great old Rock N' Roll, R&B, songs of the 60's 70's, The Rolling Stones, Rock & Roll, more of this, and a lot less of the Crap they make this days. Sorry, I only deal in facts.
