See, that's what I mean, someone should have responded to this thread already. This place is so boring sometimes. Especially when the main board is down.

Anyway I love the way that guy moves his head around like he's playing the most badass rock and roll, and yet he's just making these dinky noises!

What are the words to this song? It doesn't seem to make much sense, though it's great, obv.

well, the slogan line is "Shaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one"
which even as a child seemed to say "we're crap, but after a couple you'll be drunk and won't notice" which gets points for a sort of truth in advertising.

"Shaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one"

That's kindof a brain twister or something. I couldn't understand what words they were singing, either.

Anyway I'm the sort of person that if I'm in a pub I never order the same drink twice.

Yeah, that's pretty great. And it's, what, like, 80-90 minutes shorter than "Tales of Topographic Oceans."

If you drink the beer, it may work out well. If you pour some beer on an old vintage Moog, well... I wouldn't recommend it for sure...

Btw. The Moog Modular costed a fortune, was almost impossible to understand, and compared to later synths it sounded rubbish, with lots of noize, oscillators going out of tune etc.

Well I'm sorry to take a grammar detour here, but this brings up something that has bothered me since childhood: my mother always corrected me when I said something "costed such and such". She said there was no such word as "costed". It irritated me because I felt she must be wrong. So I just did a bunch of looking around on the internet and apparently there is a word "costed" but it is not used in that way. It's only in the sense of a builder or an accountant having made an estimate i.e. "they costed out the job" etc. So my mother was right, the correct way to say it is the Moog Modular cost a fortune, even though it's in the past tense.

ODB: "I bought a new outfit that costed me a lot of money."
