Some do retire well. My fav band is R.E.M. -- they knew when to hang it up and move on to interests and projects of their own individually.

A bit more headbanger than blues, but she might be in a club closer to you Keith.

Good morning. Let me pour you a glass of some Fresh Hot and Cold Running Bootsy Collins. Unlike other artists, his P-Funk DNA has stayed strong through four decades.



For comparison, here is a very similar video from 1990 featuring someone else with a very flexible spine.

Continuing on with female artists with a good power stance during their performance, I offer The Cranberries with Dolores O'Riordan in a live show on lead guitar and vocals playing Zombie, a song about the Troubles. If you're not familiar with their hit, it's one you should become aquainted with. Absolutely moving piece of music.

:lovestruck: Whenever I see "The Fall", I think of this movie

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fall_(2006_film)
The Fall (2006 film)

In 1915 Los Angeles, stuntman Roy Walker is hospitalized, bedridden and possibly paralyzed after taking a jump in his first film. He meets Alexandria, a young Romanian-born patient in the hospital who is recovering from a broken arm, and begins to tell her a story about her namesake, Alexander the Great. Alexandria is told she has to leave, but Roy promises to tell her an epic tale if she returns the next day.

The next morning, as Roy spins his tale of fantasy, Alexandria's imagination brings his characters to life. Roy's tale is about five heroes: a silent Indian warrior, a muscular ex-slave named Otta Benga, an Italian explosives expert called Luigi, Charles Darwin with a pet monkey called Wallace, and a masked swashbuckling bandit. An evil ruler named Governor Odious has committed an offense against each of the five, who all seek revenge. The heroes are later joined by a sixth hero, a mystic.

According to the director's remarks on the DVD release of the film, Tarsem Singh largely financed the film with his own funds, determined to make the film according to his own vision, and paid members of the cast and crew on an equal basis rather than in more typical Hollywood fashion.

Singh's commentary indicates the film was made over a period of four years and incorporates footage shot in more than 20 countries, including India, Indonesia (Bali), Italy, France, Spain, Namibia, China (PRC), and numerous others, a few of which are not listed in the credits. Singh stressed the importance of on-location filming and lack of special effects in interviews because he found that modern techniques would not age well in comparison. He reportedly only took advertising jobs in places that he wanted to do location scouting for, and would fly out cast members to shoot scenes for the film using the same crew as he did for commercials.[7] Singh's focus on striking visuals combined with his commitment against using special effects when shooting scenes of the blue city in Jodhpur, as he provided locals with blue paint to refresh the paint on their houses.[8] This alternative to post-production effects resulted in the vibrant blue of the city in the film. Another location, the contemporary South African mental hospital which represents an early 20th-century Los Angeles hospital (the principal setting throughout the film) remained operational (in a separate wing) during filming, according to the DVD commentaries.[9]

Fresh off the griddle Punk. Who knew Punk was still a thing? But here we are in 2022 with a brand new group and their 143 views. Clearly early days for them, but they nail that youthful exurberance necessary for the genre.



Their full demo if you need more. I like track 2 the best.

Oh dear. I just realized I never posted anything by Melissa Etheridge. So here you are -- you get Melissa and Bruce on stage together.
(I did get to see her in concert once and she's a tremendous performer and awesome human -- had backstage passes).

Enjoy your weekend.

I forgot to say Thank You! for this the other day. I love Afrobeat.

Thank you!
