    Gonzo the Best Man

    I just got done re-taking all the MC trivia quizzes and they're just as much fun as they were when I first joined seven years ago! Anyway, one of the questions in the Muppets Take Manhatten quiz was who was Kermit's best man at the wedding and the answer was Gonzo. Now, admittedly MTM is...

    "I Get There" appreciation thread

    I've recently falen in love with this song. I love the James Taylor-y feel of the music and how hapy Shelley's friends are to see him in the end. Who else loves this great song? http://youtu.be/-DvK-oE8mR0

    Nancy McGeorge

    I just saw the Muppets Valentine Special for the first time and noticed a very mysterious performing credit at the end: Nancy McGeorge. I've never heard of this person before and beyond being mentioned by name only on the Muppets Valentine Special page, Muppet Wiki isn't much help. Does...

    RIP Phoebe Snow

    http://www.soundspike.com/news/article/2024-phoebe_snow_news/ Snow was one of my mom's favorite singers and played her songs all through my childhood. Her voice was definitely an acquired taste, but it was well worth getting used to. Her singing career was cut short so that she could care...

    The White Stripes broke up today

    It's official: rock group The White Stripes broke up today. Their music was a little too weird for me, but they were a famous group all the same and it's always sad to see music groups break up. If I had to pick a favorite White Stripes song, it would probably be "Doorbell", although my favorite...
