Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: catspaw49 Date: 01 Dec 00 - 07:13 AM Well that ol' wanker Bill has beaten me to it as I was going to start one this AM. So Rick, on this day which caused your mother great pain and has caused many others great pain ever since, I have but one word for you: wallpaper .......and thanks for the friendship, smiles, and warmth, you bring to me and the other folks in this weird place. And my additional thanks for giving PT a life. Spaw |

Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: Little Neophyte Date: 01 Dec 00 - 07:48 AM Sung to Rick Fieldings tune of 'This One's The Dreamer off the birthday boy's latest CD. This one's the 54th birthday This one's wondering does age really matter This ones got years to travel Long way from sixty Who listens to Quentin Crisp Sometimes to the baseball score In the backyard, there is Duckboots In her garden This one's got a gorgeous voice Kind of like the way Gorden Lightfoot sings Strumming on Woody with a banjo chorus Long time true friend Who won't join the Morris Dancers To celebrate his birthday with cake & laughter Love 'The Man', sing to praise Can you feel it? Chorus The wider your waistline We'll still love you The longer you take to walk We'll walk in stride The further off your hearing We'll be there to holler to you Now one thing is true Dear Richard, The Mudcatters love you Little Neo

Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: GUEST,chance Date: 01 Dec 00 - 10:02 AM Rick, here is an excerpt from Ferlinghetti that seems to me to sum up performers birthdays. Constantly risking absurdity and death whenever he performs above the heads of his audience the poet (folksinger) like an acrobat climbs on rime to a high wire of his own making and balancing on eyebeams above a sea of faces paces his way to the other side of the day performing entrachats and sleight-of-foot tricks and other high theatrics and all without mistaking any thing for what it may not be For he's the super realist who must perforce perceive taut truth (happy birthday, anyway, chance)

Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: sophocleese Date: 01 Dec 00 - 10:46 AM Happy Birthday Rick. Just to let you know that in Orillia it is a holiday. My kids are out of school today, but plans for the parade fell through when most local musicians refused to play their instruments outside in the cold. I'll raise a beer to you tonight. |
Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: Amergin Date: 01 Dec 00 - 11:00 AM Well, don't fret, Rick, there are plenty of people who are older than you, Methuselah for example.

Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 01 Dec 00 - 03:31 PM Many happy returns. (Round about that number of birthdays I lost count. These days I just give the year I was born when people ask me, and let them do the sums.)
Looks like a good song from Neo - only thing for Rick is, he probably won't feel he can sing it himself. Which is frustrating for a good singer with a good song. |
Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: GUEST,Big Mick Date: 01 Dec 00 - 05:02 PM Hell no Harp...............we are thoroughly modern men of the New Millenium.......Fielding, Patterson, Swan, and Lane, Layabouts at large welcomes as associates those whom, regardless of gender or race or creed or color, exhibit the very finest aspects of the Layabout lifestyle. I would guess that your legendary runs through the woods (or was it swamps) of Florida........ the mental imagery of which caused many of us to lose sleep, or at the least to immediately wake up our significant other and cause them to lose sleep LOL.........would most likely gain you immediate admission to the firm. And so's youse don't give me a fine load of shite for thread creep...........let me say Happy BDay again to Rick. Big Mick |

Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rick Fielding From: bbc Date: 02 Dec 00 - 10:12 PM Well, folks, I *did* get to wish Rick a Happy Birthday in person. I took him some Ring Dings (snack cakes) & a candle & made him a card on my computer--classy or what?! Although I didn't kiss & hug him for absolutely every Mudcatter worldwide, I made a good attempt. spaw, I remember one of the big smootchers was for you! :) Also, at the end of the concert, Caroline couldn't resist leading a few alternative birthday songs. I think we've embarrassed him enough for this year. The concert was great & it was such a pleasure to see & hear Sandy, Caroline, & Rick! bbc |
