Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Bill D Date: 16 Jun 10 - 06:03 PM ..... I consider myself most fortunate that Amos has come to the Getaway the last few years, and that I am able to hear the wide variety of music he does- more than just 'competently'. ☺ Thanks Amos...and thanks, Dan, for putting those up. |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Amos Date: 16 Jun 10 - 07:07 PM Well, McGrath, that's why it a Reserve Fund...just in case. A |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Bobert Date: 16 Jun 10 - 07:34 PM Well, couple things... First of all I'm a little concerned that my vasectomy need maintenance??? I mean, I thought it was good fir life??? But now it looks as if I gotta re-up... That is bothersome... I mean, they said it was a piece of cake the last time but... ...the day I went to get it there was a bomb threat at the clinic and then, rather than have one nurse oversee the doctor doin' the chop on poor ol' mee it seems like every danged nurse within a hundred miles was in there and... ...well, when yer about to get "chopped" ain't like Mr. Happy is too happy... No, might of afct, he's purdy unhappy and you know what that means??? Yeah, friggin' shrinkage!!! Now here I was with what looked like a couple hundred womenz watchin' an' all I could think was, "This is purdy dfanged embarassin'... I mean, come on Mr. Happy... Just do a little poke yer head up but, no!!! He just pouted and there were probably a couple hundred women who went home that day thinkin', "Glad to be going home to Ralph or Charlie or..." Then they said that in a day 'er two the pain a swelling would go away... Bull!!! It was two friggin' weeks!!! I don't want to talk about this no more so if I gotta go fir a maintance procedure then count me out... If it's so wonderful then whoever thinks its a great idea can just go in fir me... B~ |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: olddude Date: 16 Jun 10 - 10:58 PM Well Bobster, reminds me of the story of my buddie Gary's brother. He got his pants caught in a PTO shaft of a tractor and it ripped Mr. Happy right off. Well in the hospital the docs sewed him back on .. Well while he was a healin Mr. Happy swelled up to the size of a horses Mr. Happy ... well I tell ya there was a line of nurses coming in every 5 minutes to check the surgery ... I could hear them laughin in the hall about the mammoth size Mr. Happy on the guy in room 202. Well anyway he claims it healed up and works fine but his wife was disappointed it didn't stay that size |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Amos Date: 17 Jun 10 - 12:44 AM Dang, man...this thread really went off on a phallic tangent, so to speak. Bobert is clearly implying something... |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Severn Date: 17 Jun 10 - 03:17 PM Then Amos back in the right direction..... |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: PoppaGator Date: 17 Jun 10 - 05:38 PM ...I read "vasectomy reserve" nas "vasectomy reversal"... |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Janie Date: 17 Jun 10 - 05:54 PM Well, I was gonna make a complimentary remark, something to the effect that I slip Amos into the hard drive regularly, it is about time some one got Amos up on the internet, more exposure, etc.... but now I am affeared of bein' mistooken..... |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Little Hawk Date: 17 Jun 10 - 07:01 PM I just listened to a couple of your tunes, Amos. They sound great. You have a very mellow and tender-sounding voice, full of heartfelt emotion. Good stuff. |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Amos Date: 17 Jun 10 - 07:32 PM Wal, shucks and golly is about all I can say. I am grateful to Dan for going that extra mile! I am having a bunch of this CD printed tonight so those who have asked shall receive soon. A |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Bobert Date: 17 Jun 10 - 08:09 PM Whew, glad to be off Mr. Happy and back onto Mr. Amos... Sorry, I musta started this drift... (No, Boberdz, you didn't...) Okay,,, Yeah, Amos is one fine folkie musican... I can attest to that myself having heard him live and close-up... He obviously been around this stuff (music) fir awile... B~ |

|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: frogprince Date: 17 Jun 10 - 09:55 PM Amos...damn, that stuff is good! I didn't know until now that The Rose was supposed to be a cowboy song. I was trying to think who, of the "known" voices I was hearing; not to take away from the fact that you have your own voice, and do it your way, but I think I heard something of John Stewart. I think maybe the world needs to hear a bit of Amos and Dan harmonizing. |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: bseed(charleskratz) Date: 18 Jun 10 - 07:06 PM Amos, I always knew you had it in you, the way you cranked 'em out in the song competitions--now I know you have the vocal and guitar chops to do your words the service they deserve. I'd love to have one of your CDs. I'll send you my address via PMS (the personal message system, not God's punishment for the apple thing). Charles |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: kendall Date: 18 Jun 10 - 07:25 PM Amos, can I pick with you at the Getaway? |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: olddude Date: 19 Jun 10 - 09:20 AM "And the songs I'm use to hearing, ain't the one's the jukebox plays so I'm heading back home - to my Sweet Wyoming Home" Now a lesson to other Catters, No more of the closet pickin fer you folks. Too darn many great great musicians like Amos who are hiding under the radar ... I will find you !! Oh yes I will find you ... :-) no more hiding ... POST your music |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Amos Date: 19 Jun 10 - 10:13 AM Kendall, it is always my honor to play with you. I got the product and am shipping this weekend. Tell Bobert! :>) A |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Art Thieme Date: 19 Jun 10 - 10:22 AM Amos, From all I've seen of and from you up on this Mudcat site over the years, all that Dan says is not a surprise. Way to go! Art |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Amos Date: 19 Jun 10 - 11:09 AM Dang, Art, that means a lot. Thank you so much. All this applause is making me shy!! A |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: olddude Date: 19 Jun 10 - 12:03 PM Nothing to be shy about bro, You earned it ... see when anyone is given a gift of music, folks can come out of the closet and more importantly , can do some good things with it. A few weeks ago I sold over 2000 dollars in CD's. The songs I wrote so I would not step on anyone's license. Every single penny went to the food pantry that was running pretty low because of the state of our economy and the mass of people in need. It wasn't at all about me, it was about them ... When folks are given a gift of music ... you can do some really good things with it ... right ... so come out of the closet folks and get playing ... but get playing for someone else ... ok .. you can do a lot of good things for others with your music. And this place is full of great music writer, performers and everything else in between ... Dan |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: olddude Date: 19 Jun 10 - 10:28 PM I would love to Bob, my biggest problem is there is only so much time I can be away from work and I been trying to do the grand baby thing and see the kids whenever I can ... that always leaves me short of time and travel money ... I will see what I can do ... I would love it Dan |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Little Hawk Date: 20 Jun 10 - 12:39 PM What good would it do to have his butt there? He can't play the guitar without his fingers. |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Bobert Date: 20 Jun 10 - 03:15 PM The butt bone connected to the finger bone... The butt bone connected to the finger bone... No butt, no fingers, LH... Sheesh...

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Little Hawk Date: 20 Jun 10 - 03:33 PM I'm just tired of people telling someone to get their "butt" over somewhere when they actually mean they want the whole person over there. I don't understand this fixation on butts that has taken over the American vernacular. It's stupid. Same goes for the popular expression "kick ass", which is even stupider. |
|
Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Bobert Date: 20 Jun 10 - 08:25 PM Which reminds me, LH... Get yer butt down to a Getaway, yerownbutts self... And take a couple Geritol for yer tiredness... 'Er a plate of freashly boiled spinich... And... ...no butts about it... b~ |

Subject: RE: Amos, Amos, Amos From: Stilly River Sage Date: 20 Jun 10 - 09:12 PM "Metonymy" is the word you're looking for, Little Hawk. It's a figure of speech, the use of the name of one thing for that of another of which it is an attribute or with which it is associated. Butt for body, crown for the king, sails for ship, etc. Dan, you're not the only one getting travel advice and planning via Mudcat members this year. After all, a few of them have managed to arrange to ship Max over to England for a visit. Amos, the songs sound great! SRS |
