    "Drive" and "Emotion in motion" are absolutely superb, sigh, thank you for your music, Ric!

    We went to a Bryan Adams concert last night, and in the middle he performed Drive in honor of Ocasek. The Cars is one of the bands I regret never having had the opportunity to see live.

    How was the Bryan Adams concert overall?

    It was good, he had more hits that I remembered, mostly because I haven't heard them in a while due to the fact I don't really listen to the radio anymore, too many commercials. His voice was still strong and he was very engaging with the crowd, had a huge screen behind him showing the crowd dancing during one song he called a "dance tune". When he played It's Only Love, he had the lights off and a spotlight shine into the side of the stage with a drum roll going, like Tina Turner was going to come out, then stopped it all abruptly and said, "Not really, she isn't here." It was pretty funny.

    I went because my fiancé really wanted to go, not thinking I would enjoy it, but I was wrong, it was fun.

    I didn't realize the actor was that old when he played the character.

    That bums me out, Nog's arc was the best thing in DS9. For being a supporting character, he was the heart of the show. Time to watch In the Cards and listen to I'll Be Seeing You

    DS9 was overall a fantastic trek, It not only went against the usual grain and riled up some traditionalist trek fans but the stationary nature of a station let them have a lot of long running arcs which gave them lots of B-Story material to use along side main plots. Which for a show that runs for 7 years lots of B-Story characters is a massive enhancement.

    I just started DS9 when the anniversary came up. I'm still in the first season. Never was a fan as a kid, because everything was constable broken, but i am liking it so far.

    Quark is really good.

    It gets better as it goes and they get further into the big plot elements and lose the bad stuff (like the Jake plots). Yes, Quark is awesome. Just wait for the "Quark marries a Klingon" episode.

    Uncle John's Band and Ripple are the two Dead songs I like the best, but I assumed Jerry Garcia wrote the lyrics.

    I find that the really memorable evil characters are truly good actors.

    It's easy to be a flatline on camera, it's hard to sell a role, especially a villainous one.

    I can't tell if, in this case, it's people speaking kindly about him after his passing or if he just pulled Jack Gleeson and retired from acting.
