I'm pretty sure all of us Veegers are well beyond school age, except for a few that might be taking a class or two here and there, but our kids and young relatives are sweating bullets right now with the school year coming up fast. What does this have to do with us, you might think? NOTHING! We're done with that noise! BWAHAHA! Actually, life's one long learning experience, but I'm not gonna get into that. This session has to do with songs about learning, teaching, school subjects, the word 'school', and songs/bands that begin with the letters 'A' through 'G'. It ain't that hard for a first assignment, is it. Any and all Rock-N-Roll facts and trivia would be greatly appreciated during this thread so we all can learn a little more. It's our usual Open Thread so feel free to go outside the box and share some tunes we haven't heard yet. Please mind our Rules or this box awaits you. LOL

While some of our friends here at the Triple V are spending the weekend at the beach, the rest of us are stuck at home. We can still use music to do some imaginary traveling, so post songs about beaches, deserts, tundras, prairies, forests and mountains. Also songs about modes of transportation, such as cars, trains or riverboats... And songs about cities, states and countries. Maybe you just want to get out of the house for awhile, see a movie, go to a concert or go to a Go-Go... Don't want to go anywhere? In the mood to stay home and relax? That's cool. Just play some good tunes. Please Recommend! Holiday time and that means I am heading to the cottage on the ocean. It's actually a lake but it's as close as I am getting to an ocean this year. I need some good tunes to put on my beachy summer playlist. Throw down your faves, kids. Let's chill out, lighten up and soak up the sun.Dancin' in the moonlight -on the beach of course.... keepin' things loose and light.Hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale...........and it's about to set sail..........it's almost the last hurrah for summer but my favorite time of year, the Fall, is coming up so that makes it not so sad when I wave goodbye to summer. I hope you all are enjoying the season and staying safe and well. Let's kick off this weekend with some summery, beachy tunes or let's just post our favorite classic rock. We're always open thread here on VVV and if you obey the House Rules we won't have to get ugly on ya' Peace, Love & Rock n Roll!Good evening all! Tonight thread is all about the idea of a "Supergroup". The idea is for you to build your own personal band. How this works is that you get to fill the four major spots on the mountain. Pick yer favorite artist at each of those positions and post any tune they play on. I'll show you how it works. I'll start with the Bass....to me...Cliff Burton of Metallica... On the Skins...that's gotta be Neil Peart... Manning the Axe? This was a tough one. It was a coin flip between a Jimmy and a Jimi (Clapton was right there too)...I based my selection solely on longevity... And finally, the singer. The quarterback of the team. Not only is he the voice, he's also the frontman. The Face, if you will. Not only is his voice important, his sheer presence represents the band. For me that's Chris Cornell...no one had more range! So you now know my playlist...what I want to know is what is yours? Who do you consider the best? Who's faces sits atop of your Mt Rushmore? And if you don't want to play my game...that's OK too! Post up whatever you got playing! We want to hear it. Just remember to to follow the house rules and recommend us to yer pals...the more the merrier! Rolling Stones drummer, Charlie Watts, died Tuesday, August 24. Another Rock & Roll hero has departed from us. He joined the Stones in 1963 and was on every album and every Stones tour. Unfortunately he lost his battle to throat cancer. RIP Charlie Let's celebrate Charlie's life posting any Rolling Stones tune or any of his other recordings. Lets also post songs by any other deceased Rock drummer, hell post any Rock song that features the drums, as well. If you'd rather not post Rock tunes based on the drums or drummers, I can dig that! Do not fret, VVV is always an open thread. Meaning, post whatever Rock tunes you wish to share. Post funny memes, pics, or gifs. Tell us about your favorite Rock concert you have seen. One last thing before we get started. Please have fun and follow VVV's Golden Rules. PLEASE RECOMMEND Happy Monday, everyone! We all know how deep our pockets are around here when it comes to obscure bands and deep cuts from albums, so now we'll focus on Rock songs that were hits on the radio (AM or FM), television music programs, and songs with the word radio in the title or lyrics. As long as it was a legit broadcast hit from any decade, run it! This is a wide open field with lotsa possibilities, but it's also an Open Thread for tasty offerings from outside of the box. Please respect our Rules and one another so we can continue to be an oasis in this crazy world. Whodathunkit? Two For The Show... Three To Get Ready... Go Cats Go! It's the weekend music thread. Play your favorite songs! Recommend! It feels good to scream sometimes. Some singers are known for their screams and or their raspy, gutteral voices. Some of my favorites are Steven Tyler, Janis Joplin and Ian Gillan. And I cannot forget my Spirit Animal, Linda Perry!Post your favorite tunes of singers with unique voices, wide vocal ranges and ones that just let it rip and give it their all..... That's what music is all about. We can all use a little scream therapy right now, yes? if'n ya' don't like the theme, that's ok, it's always open thread so just post your favorite gifs, pics and videos, we would love to see and hear them. FEEL FREE TO SCREAM ALONG AND DANCE, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.Good evening my friends! Sir Knight gave you the "threes"...so I'm gonna give you the 2's! Let's pull out all the tunes we know with just two words in the title...
That should get ya'll started. As always, if yer of a mind to go off thread, then feel free. Just know that if you do venture off thread and the the tune isn't awesome, well...we have ways of dealing with you! LOL! Just kidding folks! Triple V is a safe haven to share music, funny gifs and good times. We keep the porch unlocked and the fridge full. All we ask is you respect our house rules and each other. One more thing...whoever ate my Spicy Doritos (you know who you are)...we need to have a talk! Hahaha! Ok Batman, crank up the Bat Computer and generate us some rockin' random words. Once we receive word from the Bat Cave we will take those randomly generated words and use them to post loads of Rock tunes. Our randomly generated words for today are: Back , Born , Car , Down , Fire , Have , Home , Know , Love , More , Mountain , My , Night , Only , Out , Right , Road , See , Still , You. Post songs that have a randomly chosen word in the title, band/artist name, or album name. If finding songs by way of random words aint you bag, I can dig that! Do not fret, VVV is always an open thread. Meaning, post whatever Rock tunes you wish to share. Post funny memes, pics, or gifs. Tell us about your favorite Rock concert you have seen. One last thing before we get started. Please have fun and follow VVV's Golden Rules. |
