I didn’t realize he was 70.

I know it shouldn't be weird but there is something about rockers getting old that is unnerving. I guess it's realizing the fact that we are all getting old. All the Phish guys are in their mid to late 50's now. When I started following them at 16 they were the age I am now.

Malo formed in 1971 in San Francisco and had only one US hit, Suavecito in 1972, but were very popular in Mexico, Central America and South America, where their hits include Nena, Café, Latin Bugaloo, Oye Mama, Todo Por Ti, Dilo Otra Vez and Moviendome Hacia Afuera.

Second.

Bullets was a much cooler name than Wizards.

Same with Oilers over Texans. And the powder blue oil rig on the helmets was awesome.

Third. We actually really like the show Mom. It's very real, and every character on the show is kind-of effed-up. Also Allison Janney and Anna Faris are great.

I second that one. Sweet had four top-ten US hits in the 1970s: Little Willy, Ballroom Blitz, Fox On The Run and Love Is Like Oxygen. With Priest's death, guitarist/keyboardist Andy Scott is now the only surviving original member. Lead singer Brian Connolly died of liver failure in 1997 and drummer Mick Tucker died of leukemia in 2002. The current incarnation of the band is called Andy Scott's Sweet, with Paul Manzi as lead singer.
