The Winter Solstice... the shortest day and the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. A day for lighting fires and calling for the sun's return; to say goodbye to the old and to welcome in the new. !
To celebrate the Solstice, let's play songs about night and day, the sun and the moon, the light and the dark. Also songs about winter, the snow, the ice and the cold, cold winds. And songs about fire too. In the mood for something a little warmer? Perhaps you live in the Southern Hemisphere and today is your Summer Solstice? That's cool. Play what you will. It's always an open thread at The Triple V. Please Recommend!

With Christmas right down the road and comin' fast, most everybody's wrackin' brains, beatin' feet, all asses and elbows, and of course we'll be draggin' ass by the time it's over. Well here's your chance to stock up on replacement parts if you need any. Why wait? There'll be plenty to go around with all of the body parts mentioned in the songs we're gonna post! Don't forget bands with body parts' names in them, and Honorable Mentions will be given to doctors and nurses who'll do the leg work and installations! Let's fire up our brain pans and get the blood pumpin'! If you don't care for the theme, it's Open Thread here just like always, so you can share whatever Rock songs you have handy - Christmas songs are especially welcome this time of year too. If you don't know them already, please cast your peepers upon our rules, follow them, everything'll be cool, and we'll all have a great time! Don't forget to tap the heart and Recommend us. Christina, if you please... You've probably never had a bad breakup, right? Me either.......LMLyingAO!!! Today I thought we would post some tunes that speak about those people we kicked to the curb or dumped because they were no good for us. You know the ones. It’s their loss. Mick knows heartache Janis could belt out a song and make you feel her pain and loneliness What songs remind you of your last breakup or a particularly bad one? Did you cry in your beer or did you get mad like me and like Maryanne Faithful and rip them a new one? Time to get the party started.. As always if you don't like the theme.........What the heck is wrong with you? LOL. In that case, post your favorite music videos and 'stuff' cause we would love to see and hear them-- we're always open thread on Vintage Vinyl Video. Feel free to sing along and dance... YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO. ;-)
Good evening, my friends! Sorry I missed ya'll Wednesday night...but Mother Nature decided to throw a Nor'easter my way and we were in the dark 'round these parts. Since it's Friday, and none of us really want to think too hard, I thought I'd head out to the garage (hehehe) and shake up the Magic 8 Ball and see what comes out...while we wait...just something to pass the time... Cough, cough...whoa...stood up to fast! Hang on. OK...after consulting the Magic 8 Ball, the following words came up...Yes, No, Never, Free, Always, Again, Later, Leave, What, Where and When. Not rocket science, folks...
See now! Easy peasy! And of course, any holiday tunes are welcome. Tis the season... At the end of the day, we all retreat to The V for the same reason. To find some semblance of peace in a most un-peaceful world. If you want to drift off thread, then that's OK too, just follow the house rules. Rules? Hahahaha...what do a bunch of ol' rockers know about rules? Tell you what, I'll make it easy. Post up good tunes, funny gifs or pics and be cool to each other. I think we can all handle that. Hey there, all you beautiful people. How are the holidays? Eh.....never mind. Let’s play a game! For those who are newer, this is something we do every few months or so. The objective is simple....post your songs in alphabetical order. Also, it’s an individuals game. First songs should start with an A, second should start with B, third should start with C, and so on. Try to make it through all 26 letters of the alphabet. If you make it through, try going through bands/artists in alphabetical order next, or vice versa. Doesn’t matter. It’s all in good fun. If you're not interested in doing that, that’s OK. Post as you usually would, as these are always open threads. It may get you shanked, though. ;-P Enjoy!
Boy, this week has already been one big mess. Hell, the whole year has been out of sorts. I am just trying to have one peaceful week, void of any mishaps, breakdowns, or bad news. The only place I can seem to find any peace, is here on VVV. Hehehehe well, mostly peaceful. Anyhow, what I am proposing as a theme today is posting songs about SNAFU's. Songs about things going wrong, breakdowns, accidents, or mayhem. Also post any songs, albums names, or artist/band names that start with an S , N , A , F , or U. If utter mayhem isnt music to your ears, 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 concert experiences. Those always Rock! One last thing before get started. Please have fun and follow VVV's Golden Rules. It all started with Gospel and Mountain Music. Along the way, Jazz was born... Which led to The Blues... And Country Music. Sometime around 1956, it all came together and gave birth to Rock 'N' Roll. I thought it would be fun to spend some time playing our favorite Rock 'N' Roll songs while also paying tribute to the roots of the Rock and the Roll. No need to keep it in America either. Sure, the music originated in this country but it belongs to the world. Please Recommend! No, that ain't me puttin' this thread together. I have to keep it together at least until it's done, besides, nobody uses typewriters anymore LOL. From tobacco, to coffee or tea, to alcohol, right up to controlled substances, people have been looking to 'enhance their consciousness' ever since we discovered fermented fruits and went from there. It's not the best thing to do all the time, long term, and some stuff you shouldn't touch at all. We here at VVV DO NOT promote, endorse, or recommend the use of anything illegal or harmful - please check your local, state, and national laws and use common sense before you do anything of that nature. We have to admit that many of our musical heroes have indulged in this, that, or the other thing, and they wrote plenty of songs about them. We also have to admit that a good part of the population has too, as well as many of us here. There's nothing wrong with partyin' it up as long as you at least try to be somewhat responsible when you do. Let's get this musical party rolling with songs about partying, the stuff we use to do it, and just feeling good in general! Christmas is right around the corner! It wouldn't be a party if it wasn't an Open Thread for everybody to share other great Rock songs to keep us all going! Please mind our House Rules so we don't have to clean up after anybody, and don't forget to tap the heart to Recommend us so we get even more people here, go over our limit and become a fire hazard! Heh. Hey everyone! As the year is coming to a close soon, one of things people tend to do is reflect on what was. Reflection is a common theme in music as well, so I figured we would find songs that talk about the past. That includes any song that happen to be describing any subject matter in past tense. Easy enough, right? If you’re someone who prefers to look towards the future, that’s cool too. We always carry an open thread and there’s a rock song for everything. Enjoy. :-)
Well! It's the weekend and i am just finishing a 12 hour shift where i got about 2 hours work done LOL. I don't give a damn -the work will be here when I get back Monday. People had the nerve to ask me to do things today- sure those things were part of my job but don't they realize i have no more damns to give? I'd rather be spending today on the beach soaking up some sun, watching the waves washing over the sand and my perfectly polished toenails, but i look out the window and i see SNOW!!! GRRRRR! 😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈 Tell you what let's do... let's post songs that tell people we don't give a damn about the bad breakup, the work that didn't get done, the burnt toast, the flat tire, the broken fingernail, the pregnant cat...the toilet paper shortage, you get the idea... fugget about it!!!! Let's post our classic rock, our blues, our funk, our punk or whatever the hell we want! So! tell them you don't care any more Dance like no one is watching..Cause you don't care!!!. Dance like Elaine Bennis if you want to! Twist yourself further from the middle of the floor Throw a little kiss to the woman next door Step on the gas put your hand in the air Make a V-sign and you throw back your hair Think about nothin' now you're nice and high You're advocating love but you don't know why Now you're getting vibrations all down to your feet That's the brow beating, heavy, leather, resurrection beat Mick didn't give a damn-tell em to get off of your cloud!! Oh we're so pretty Oh so pretty We're vacant--And we don't care! So join me in not giving a damn! If'n you don't like the theme, I don't give a damn and neither should you!!!!! Just post your fave songs, pics and gifs, we would love to see and hear them. Let's chill out with a glass of beer, whiskey or wine or all three , some good music and chit chat with some of the coolest people on disqus and IMO, the world--that's you - the Vintage Vinyl Video Community...I thank you for making this place the best music site around.
