Good song though.....

We Have a Weiner!!!!

Well one Mr. Daniel McNally
(son not brother) knows the
difference between Bob Gibson and Chuck Berry
and is this week's TT Winner!!
Maybe that Rock and Roll Hall of Fame visit last year paid off!

Chuck threw out the first pitch of a Cardinals game last year.
.....and at age 85, he still plays at a club just outside of St. Louis once a month.

Go to Amazon now and buy this if you don't have it.....
The Great 28....is must have.

Maybe my favorite Chuck song.....
that you never heard of.
"DEAR DAD"
Google the lyrics and you'll understand what a great lyricist Chuck is.




You youngsters out there NEED to watch.....
 "HAIL!! HAIL!! Rock and Roll."
Great CB documentary that is now 25 years old and mesmerizing....
Not only because of the music but because of the great behind the scenes footage and interviews.
Worth it just to see a young "Jersey Shore" Bruce Springsteen
a duet with Chuck and Julian Lennon
and a bitch fight between Chuck and Keith Richards.

You can watch it all on YouTube for free.....
Part ONE is below....


My second favorite Chuck song.....that you never heard of.
"I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU"

Marty's Tip of the Day......

....don't text and walk.

Marty

Warren, IN

No more ice cubes in my beer.......

Japanese beer brewer Kirin came up with this idea

to keep your ice-cold brew colder.... longer..

Beer with frozen foam.

The foam is very cold at -5 degrees Celsius,

which, according to Kirin, can help keep the beer below it ice-cold for roughly thirty minutes.
