Meme Me, Meming You
I think 3T is taking advantage of my weakness for attractive brunettes because she tagged me with a MEME. I'll play along, but that's only because in my world, she convinced me to do so by doing a strip tease to a Journey song.
Here goes...
Total volume of music on my hard drive: 181 MB (Mostly versions of Louie Louie)
Last CD I Bought: Bud Buckley's "Feel My Love" & "Tom Jones & Jools Holland" (bought at roughly the same time)
Song playing right now: Not that this is music to my ears or anything, but the Cubs/White Sox game is on in the background. There's also some very loud rap/crap bouncing through the walls from a neighboring apartment.
Five songs I listen to a lot: In no particular order...
- "Louie Louie"
- Anything from the Cash: Unearthed Box Set
- The Tom Jones recording of "Mama Told Me Not to Come"
- Anything by Stevie Ray Vaughn
- Anything by Joe Walsh
(bonus songs, not asked for in the MEME, but who cares?)
- "Photograph", "Don't Pass Me By" & "Love Me Do", by Ringo Starr (VH1 Storytellers recording)
- "Cleveland Rocks", by the Presidents of the United States of America (I think that's who did the cool remake)
- Anything off the Stax/Volt Singles box set (the first one)
- "AM Radio" by Everclear (and many more from them)
- Soundtracks, Compilations, & MORE Soundtracks!
- EVERYTHING by Me First & The Gimme Gimmes
Pick five people you want to annoy with this MEME LOL!: As is tradition, I'll try to pick people that rarely, if ever read my blog, and therefore KILLING the MEME. Once again, in no particular order...
- Heather at picturepicture.net. She didn't read my blog when she was linked here. She hasn't read it since I took her off the links list. She won't read this now. I've always wanted to say, "I tagged Heather" and now when I say it, it isn't a complete lie.
- Joe Schulenberg. He hasn't blogged in so long I am sure he'll never answer this.
- Ron Jeremy. This blog is likely a fake, but isn't it cool to think that Joe Schulenberg & Ron Jeremy are mentioned in the same place?
- Eric at The Louie Louie Blog. I KNOW he has better things to do with his time than answer this silly MEME!
- Casper D. Dog. Hey LOOK! A blog run by a dog! No WAY! This is about as pointless as life gets. Let's hope the dog can only write and not actually read.

Yup, 3T got me too. But hey, it's all fun and games. :)

Yeah, I'm fine with playing along with the meme things. I just have to bust people's stones a bit when they tag me. It is just more fun that way.
Plus I like the idea of trying to tag people that will never respond and having at least one branch of the MEM family tree that comes to an end.

So Andy, ya wanna come to Hawaii and have a great big party with us,huh?
I guess we all need to work hard and see what's available for you and the Vegas Brothers.
I'll see if my husband can talk to Tom Moffett, who is a promoter here in Hawaii. Maybe we can get something going. My husband is a retarded....(did I just say that :P) retired musician and has a few connections. Can't promise anything, but we can try. :)

You shoot me a snail mail address at and@andymartello.com and I'll get out a few press kits right away. ;)
I've worked in almost all 50 of the states and Hawaii is on the list of places I haven't been yet. Plus I seem to have a blog following there so MAYBE somebody would actually come and see my show there. LOL!

Hey Andy... you're a better person than me with the Meme thing. I've just taken to doing a Readers Digest version in the comments on the persons blog who Memed me. I just can't take the PRESSURE! (So PLEASE never meme me!)
Just got to sing DON'T PASS ME BY in a Beatle's White tribute here in NY. It's such a fun song, but I listened to it so many times in one week I need a break from it... for about 2 years!

Don't worry. With very few exceptions I don't MEME anyone that actually reads my blog. I like putting an abrupt end to them, making my answeres the final words on the subjects. LOL
Of course, some people have a much better take on MEMES. Nicky Vegas seems to have found the best way to put a stop to the MEME craze. ;)
Yeah, I can imagine that you would need abreak from that song, if not all things Beatels for some time. I can relate. When I do Blues Brothers songs there are a few tuens I get a little sick of myself.
Of course, the VH1 Storytellers version of "Don't Pass Me By" is so damned good I can hear it a thousand times without a problem. Hell, that whole concert make every song sound great. That CDs version of "Love Me Do" and "Photograph" are so much better than their Beatle & Post Beatle recordings it is surprising.
I'm a bit funny like that though. There are many (too many) songs that hit my eardrums in such a way I never, and I mean NEVER tire of hearing them, even if you were to play them over and over.

LMAO!!!! :-)
Well as long as it's a Journey song....
Thanks for playing Andy!
You're a good sport! ;-)

Glad you enjoyed, 3T.
Ya know, Journey has something of a role in my "Hair of the Dog" article over at Malicious Bitch. Journey is my go-to band when I need to make a make-out reference. Ahh, the 80's. Is there anything they can't do?

I have no idea what a MEME is....
