Or the Furburglar!!! :P


Yeah what was his deal anyway? He is a thief, and prances around in a zebra outfit and a 4 foot wide Zorro lid. Um, dude, you ever heard of toning it down? Stupid assed dickhole.


Dude, why you blasting on Cheeseburglar? I loved that dude as a kid. Thought the fucker was real. Grimace always seemed like a fag to me. Who the fuck prances around in purple constantly? Oops...sorry Neal!!! :lol: :twisted: :P


HAMBURGLAR!!!

A burger without cheese is gross. Cheeseburglar sounds better anyway. You don't hear Jimmy Buffet singing "Hamburger in Paradise" do you? :lol: :twisted: :P :shock: 8)

Cheeseburglar makes it sound like the dude steals cheddar. A burger without cheese is gross, but burglars can't be choosers. You also don't hear Jimmy Buffet singing "Budlightville" either. :P :lol:

You got his name wrong, you lose. :twisted: :shock:

Kenny Rogers was my very first and closest to the stage concert at the tender age of 10.
I remember the Gambler and You Decorated My Life being my faves.
It's also the only concert I ever had the pleasure of partaking in with my Father.
Thanks for surfacing those memories for me Rip Rokken. :D

Moonie, the show was awesome especially when he was hooked up in a harness and went flying across the stage..
It was so long ago that I don't rmember the setlist...

So anyway, he pulled out a stack of old LP's, and popped on Kenny Rogers' Greatest Hits -- Kenny Freakin' ROGERS! :P

I was looking at the track list on the sleeve, and suddenly, repressed memories from my childhood awoke in my mind... I used to listen to this kinda stuff, before I'd even heard of KISS! This was even before I'd graduated on to the"Saturday Night Fever" and "Grease" soundtracks (and then to KISS, to my parents' eternal lament)! So here we are, jamming on Kenny, and all these lyrics re-emerged in my mind, for songs like "Lucille", "The Gambler", "Coward Of The County", and my favorite -- "Ruby (Don't Take Your Love To Town" -- a rather dark song about a disabled war vet whose wife cheats on him. I actually knew the songs word-for-word, and hadn't heard most of them since I was 8 or 9! This was FREAKY!

Listen, before Don Dokken, there was Kenny Rogers, and dude used to be a HELL of a storyteller. Hearing those songs again really gave me an appreciation for a type and quality of songwriting that nary exists anymore.


Kenny Rogers was at his best when he was with The First Edition - that was when he did "Ruby...". Have you ever heard "I Just Dropped In To See What Condition My Condition Was In"? Seriously, great song!!!!! And also, "Reuben James" is a fantastic song.

My mom and dad went to see Kenny Rogers in Fort Worth when I was around 20 or so. They said Sheena Easton came out and sang We've Got Tonight, and that was it for her. How the hell does that work? Did she just tour around the country to sing one song? :?

They said the concert was fantastic though.
