I do ! Claims Donovan has stolen a lot of his songs...... He was credited for Little Tin Soldier which I've got on my repertoire ( when I'm in the singing with the ol' acoustic g't*r mode ) for ages. If only I could get an acoustic band together ........

The Ted Nugent line of course should have read: You've got the uncontrolable urge to by a lot of guns

From the descriptions, I come closest to being a Rush fan. Hey, I like my flashlight!

I've never owned anything by Rush and about 2/3 of the other bands and rarely listen to the ones I do.

YMMV.

I noticed Uwe hasn't commented on Deep Purple.  :vader:

That is because I found it non-applying to me, I always liked women who were at least as old as I was if not older. Let me tell you that can be a predicament at highschool when most (all?) girls think that you are less than air to them if you are not a couple of years older. Correspondingly, my highschool love life was very much a non-event.  :-\

Edith was about half a year older than me (come to think of it actually still is). Took me 30 years to convince her that I might be worth a try nontheless.  8) I'm now having my revenge on her and never fail to mention that I "don't have issues with women older than me".

That said, DP were always a guys' rock band. I don't believe that a lot of virginities were lost with the twenty minute Space Trucking version on side 4 of Made in Japan blaring in the background.

Sigh!

Uwe, the DP entry "Some part of a law named after a young girl applies to you" refers to certain state laws here named after young girls who were victimized. See Megan's Law, for example.

Not what you're talking about.

I can only imagine what a King Crimson listing would look like.

Although, if we improvise with another band:

Marilyn Manson - You don't want to reveal to your friends that you're old enough to remember Alice Cooper, and admit he did it better.
