Personally I think Bad Manners might have reconsidered some of the markets they are visiting with more of an emphasis on the mid-west and all of California. There is nothing worse than driving all day in a van and playing to an empty room.Marco On The Basshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05874620674573034354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7744444020349998004.post-15951561972186902192011-05-10T15:42:37.630-04:002011-05-10T15:42:37.630-04:00Been to Buffalo...definitely an unpredictable town...Been to Buffalo...definitely an unpredictable town.<br /><br />Over the course of his last two albums, King Hammond has addressed issues like poverty and violence ("Cool Down Your Temper") self-serving politicians ("Mr. Easy Talk"), infidelity ("Blood Run Cold"), obesity ("Chicken and Chips"), gossip ("The Loop"), aging ("You Can't Get Those Sweet Things Anymore") with wit and humor--and he has certainly professed his deep love of reggae music (just about every other song he's written).<br /><br />Not every song is going to be a "Too Much Too Young" or "Ghost Town" (i.e.: have a socially aware message). Nor should it be. Sometimes its just great to have a catchy tune to move your body and sing along to...(Madness: f$ck art, let's dance!)Steve from Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14074565580429334218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7744444020349998004.post-77631259064561806712011-05-10T14:38:09.116-04:002011-05-10T14:38:09.116-04:00Buffalo has got to be one of the most fickle marke...Buffalo has got to be one of the most fickle markets out there.<br /><br />As for the King Hammond song - nice music - but, really?
