ggrtrhhrtgg Posted April 23, 2005 Report Posted April 23, 2005 (edited) Just want to say, I really like Greg. Topshelf material... My brother Esau killed the hunter, back in 1969, Before the killing was done his inheritance was mine. When at first my brother walked away, Before a weary band, Esau gave his sleeplessness for a piece of moral land. Our father favored Esau, he was eager to obey, All the wild commandments, the old man shot his way. But all this ended when, my brother failed at war, He staggered home and found me in the door. Esau he's on roller-skates today, And he make a statement to someone in L.A. Sometimes at night I dream, he's still that hairy man, Shadow boxing the apocalypse, wandering the land. Esau holds the blessing, brother Esau holds the curse, I was thinking that the blame was mine, But suspected something worse. The more my brother looks like me, the more I understand, The silent war it bloodied both our hands. None of us can win. Outside that dream, still that hairy man. Well sometimes at night I think I understand. Shadowboxing the apocalypse, wandering the land. Edited April 23, 2005 by Guest
ggrtrhhrtgg Posted April 23, 2005 Author Report Posted April 23, 2005 (edited) Have to share this as well, I am listening to the song... I heard for the first time (on the radio) I have heard it live, and it blew my mind, and today was the first time I heard this song where I didn't play it---spontaneous sort of thing... Well, a friend of mine just jumped on line while I was presenting the previous post, and they had the song name, and as I listen to my favourite Pink Floyd Song, arguably one of my favourite songs of ever-time... Risko, I share this one with you.... Now if I can only find a lucky in my fridge! hahahahahahahahahaha---mission accomplished--one lucky behind the milk! Edited April 23, 2005 by Guest
ggrtrhhrtgg Posted April 23, 2005 Author Report Posted April 23, 2005 Remember when you were young, you shone like the sunShine on you crazy diamondNow there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the skyShine on you crazy diamondYou were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardomblown on the steel breezeCome on you target for faraway laughter, come on you strangeryou legend, you martyr, and shine! You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moonShine on you crazy diamondThreatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the lightShine on you crazy diamondWell you wore out your welcome with random precisionrode on the steel breezeCome on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painteryou piper, you prisoner, and shine! part two Nobody knows where you are, how near or how farShine on you crazy diamondPile on many more layers and I'll be joining you thereShine on you crazy diamondAnd we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,and sail on the steel breezeCome on you boy child, you winner and looserCome on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
StoneMtn Posted April 23, 2005 Report Posted April 23, 2005 Esau is currently bringing some old shows of mine back to life, as they are on cassettte and had long ago been buried and put to rest. He's digitizing them for me, and actually thanked me for the opprtunity to do it. For that I am ever thankful Good guy. Good taper. Good friend.

Esau Posted April 23, 2005 Report Posted April 23, 2005 thanks folks,although completley unnecessary.Seems it would make more sense to thank the muscians...but thats just me.Now, can we let this thread sink like stone so I don't have to look at it? Never understood the point of these threads to tell the truth....Anyway...I got a date with a 40 of wiser's and a girl drunker then me.

I'm glad you enjoy it - cause we do too.
Jared Posted April 23, 2005 Report Posted April 23, 2005 yeah, even thought i really pissed him off and was a complet jerk to him. i;d have to say he satnd up for what he belaeves in, and really supports his friendsi've tried making up with him, but he still doesn't like me, but i think he is a pretty good guy either way. and i don't really balme him for not likeing me, althought it would be good to put this all behind usso here's to greg, and if he gives me the chance i'd love to buy him a beer

Thanks for ALWAYS being so sweet, kind and considerate to me!
U.FProductions Posted April 24, 2005 Report Posted April 24, 2005 (edited) Goodbye Norma Jean Though I never knew you at all You had the grace to hold yourself While those around you crawled They crawled out of the woodwork And they whispered into your brain They set you on the treadmill And they made you change your name And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Never knowing who to cling to When the rain set in And I would have liked to have known you But I was just a kid Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did Loneliness was tough The toughest role you ever played Hollywood created a superstar And pain was the price you paid Even when you died Oh the press still hounded you All the papers had to say Was that Marilyn was found in the nude Goodbye Norma Jean From the young man in the 22nd row Who sees you as something as more than sexual More than just our Marilyn MonroeEsau your gay. if i was gay i'd fuck ya Edited April 24, 2005 by Guest
questcequecest? Posted April 24, 2005 Report Posted April 24, 2005 gregs a great guy, i agree. cheers. i particularly like this picture of him wearing blaine's favourite hat. hat courtesy of Schwa.
Jaimoe Posted April 24, 2005 Report Posted April 24, 2005 I find this topic inconsequential.Greg is a fine broth of a lad, even though he's from Ti-Cat country.
dancingbear Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 esau rocks...has helped me out numeous, numerous times, for this i am thankful...echoing the glue sentiment. spencer
