Lol…delayed reaction David…lol…yes, that’s another fave song from Terry & Susan Jacks & Poppy Family I love …”Seasons In the Sun”

I did already suggest Dwight Yoakams version…perhaps I posted by mistake on one of the other song topic postings…lol…I know I did, I remembering posting, and my 5ablet decided to to do a software update around that time I posted so maybe I did post here but it never showed up due to tablet update,…Howard and I were on same Dwight Yoakam train of thought….lol….Ok 2:32 AM I need to sleep now…dumb insomnia spurts I now get since I’m over 50…lol…#WomenStuffPast50 ?

Agreed…they are equal in their own right, but will decide who does what according to song, and who’s more comfortable doing lead, etc…???

Member19/08/2020 at 07:14 in reply to: What’s Considered To Be Your Fave Go To ComfortFood/Drink!?Lol…I forgot to mention….the time Red Rose Tea offered up tiny figurines collections in the teaboxes, it was a collection set, I still have one or 2 of the tiny figurines… I’ve drank Tetley, if no Red Rose is available, ( love the cartoon guys from Tetley ads)…
Not keen on green tea, the taste turns me off and it bothers me, perhaps I’m allergic to it… Thus my hesitation on not trying Matcha at all.. I can no longer drink loose leaf teas , because of my food/nut allergies, the TEASTORE( name of teashop in Ottawa ), which I used to frequent before my nut allergies transpired, as some teas now have nut piece/flavor bits in them, and they can’t guarantee no cross contamination on premises of shop as they deal with loose leaf. Other Teashops I enjoyed some teas from before my allergies, were Teaopia/David’s Tea….
I also use a Keurig/Microwave to make tea, and rarely use my kettle, I have no patience much for it…lol

I ? Tea…Red Rose Orange Pekoe/Decaf…Tim Hortons English Breakfast/Orange Pekoe, McDs Orange Pekoe, if I eat in a restaurant, Orange Pekoe…. I also enjoy Irish & Scottish Breakfast Teas….☕

Another Canadian band gem, I recently discovered upon:
-
And my other fave from same band, The Poppy Family:
-
This is a Canadian band I grew up enjoying their songs on the radio in the 70s when I was a kid, I could see MLT possibly doing this song down the road, perhaps to tackle:
-
I’ve been inspired to tackle lyric songwriting…I once wrote a song when in my mid-life teens….without using/knowing/writing the music theory, music notes, etc…just wrote out song and then the tune for it came to me….I still have those lyrics, can recall only part of how it went tune wise… Never thought at time to record myself on tape cassette of when I came up with all, justvrelying on my memory… but now with modern tech convenience, zany pitential song lyrics and tune notions that conjure up in my head will be audio recorded….lol…I’ll still have no clue what key I’m singing in…justvgo by senses, in terms of high/low notewise, …the lyrical aspect I’m more better at…lol???

I guess I’m odd ball woman here, I think the opposite…Mona is the edgier one vocally…while Lusa does the more balladry, softer vocals but can indeed channel George through her guitar playing while Mona, a little bit of everything/everyone…They arevequally gifted in their own right, I’m leaving it at that…lol ??✌

Damn…lol…what a Q to put us all on the spot with…I want them to do All their Originals of course, then for covers, again I’d want all to be played…but… The ones that stand out, I Saw Her Standing There, Johnny B Goode, Wish You Were Here, For What It’s Worth…etc…. I’d be front and centre stage in front of stage because I want no tall people obstructing my view…for a change….lol I’m only 4 foot 6 ish inches tall approx, in others words under 5 feet tall….??

Member19/08/2020 at 01:35 in reply to: What’s Considered To Be Your Fave Go To ComfortFood/Drink!?Lisa…Lol…The others got to reply to you before I had a chance to, to which I’m now doing, Thankyou Lisa for your reply…Both the tea and cookies sounds yummy…. a good combo…. I’ve been making Blueberry Chocochip Smoothies, and Blueberry Freezer Jam, BlueberryChocoChip muffins with local blueberries available at the 2 outdoor farmers market I frequent in Summer to buy veggies and blueberries/cherries from…. also the smoothies were ideal during the heatwave here in Ottawa when it was here, I’m always more thirsty than hungry when humid hot, so the smoothies were ideal…
And as Jung said, Red Rose Tea is the first choice I believe for tea, at least with me it is both regular Orange pekoe and the Decaf Orange Pekoe….but when at Tim Hortons fulfilling my Tea Cravings from there, it’s the English Breakfast, or Orange Pekoe…
I recall sending you all some Red Rose Tea and Maple Leaf cookies along with other Canadian stuff, Tshirts a few yrs ago….
Here’s to Tea n Cookies ??????

I’d seen this on Facebook, sad to hear, but am Thankful MLT did have opportunity to play there, hoping it does not close, for to do so would be detrimental to the tourism of Liverpool to a degree, I would think, and that would a shame…I’m sorry that the original Cavern Club was demolished, but was happy the resurrected it with the current one, really hoping a change of heart, pressure from public, etc will divert a potential tourism disaster and place of importance in music history….?
