I’m kind of tired tonight and have a headache tonight, so I thought for tonight’s sixpack of photos, I’d just take photos of signs on posts and walls on my way home and then marry them up to videos while drinking an actual six pack at home, so awaaay we go!
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
When you looked at me I should've run,
But I thought it was just for fun.
They're doin' the rat,
Keep your trap shut.
Do the rat,
Be a cool cat.
She holds her head so high,
Like a statue in the sky,
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long.
(And in case you didn’t know it, this song is a total ripoff of The Kinks, “All Day And All Of The Night.”)
And says, "How does it feel,
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible,"
As he hands you a bone.

Dion singing "A M and J" was great, and I always knew how great a guitar player he really is. Check out the albums, "Suite for late summer" or "Sit down old friend". Interesting observation about The Doors song and the Kinks song,,,,have to check it out a little more. German McRib looks like it may lead you to heartburn city.
No one can resist the Belly Blitzkrieg of the McPanzer.
I'm saving most of the video's for wine. that is one hell of a sandwich! love the kinks. love the 99% sign!
Just... looking... at that Deutsche McRib...uuuuhhhn.... made my aorta (ghasp)... sieze up on me....dialing....9...1...1....(ghasp)...graaaagh.....
@Al: I'll check out those Dion albums, thanks for the recommendation! "Helllo I Love You" is the biggest Kinks ripoff ever. Dave Davies has been very vocal about it.
@csp: I see nothing!
@Green Monkey: Enjoy the video's with your wine time! The Kinks rule!
@Jaws: I feel your pain!
@MAD: D'Oh!
Great photos, Marty. But ANY version of the McRib is McNasty!
@csp: Nice one! HOOOOGAN!
@Meleah: Thanks and I McGree with you on the McRib McNastiness!
Only Homer Simpson might like that McRib version...and ooohhh donuts--a donut McRib--now that's an awful thought. Feel better Marty. The photo of the river with the lights is amazing.
not to start a donnybrook but:
resemblance=total rip-off ahh NOT
imho dave was just pissed off 'cause sume were sayin' his "work" was jimmy page...
All the signs were right. And when I mean all the sings were right, the only signs that we care about when we start a project of making a record is, do we have the songs - it's that simple.

@Melanie: Too funny about Homer Simpson, I think you're right! And I love that photo too, but I can't take credit for it, found it on the internet.
@rr: I have to disagree with you on the Kinks ripoff by the Doors, but to each their own. And I've also never believed that Jimmy Page played those solos. He's always denied and check out this link: http://www.igtc.com/archives/thewho/1994/Aug/msg00034.html
Love the Graham Nash quote! The Doors had the songs for "Waiting For The Sun," the only problem was one of them was written by Ray Davies! Just kidding!
MAD...cut me sume slack..bye the time i comment four of the SIXPACK is gone,,,we could get into sumthin' more interesting' whenever we touch base...see motherfucker...
rr
@rr: I'll cut you all the slack you need, my friend, just joshing around with you! I look forward to tipping a few when you get here! Sip, Ahoy!
watch it now...don't turn i loose...

Not that I'm changing my mind on the McRib or anything, but it's hard to wrong with fried cheesesticks.
GO wrong...I meant go wrong. Now, "Fat and Tasty," isn't that Nicolas Cage's porn name?
@Biff: "Fat and Tasty," isn't that Nicolas Cage's porn name?" Ha ha ha! You still gots it, Bifferoonie!
