Boko Haram or Procol Harum?

The General · February 12, 2015, 07:59:05 PM

Which kicks more ass?
Which would you join and why?
After all the drama we need a break.

Boko Haram:

Procol Harum:

Personally I would rather join Procol Harum.
They kick out the jams and I don't really care for jihad.
Also, Boko Haram's food is probably too spicy.

The General · February 12, 2015, 08:03:34 PM

Also, another consideration, I think I would stick out like a sore thumb in Boko Haram.

The General · February 12, 2015, 08:04:18 PM

PLUS Procol Harum's videos are way better.

Option 3... Boka Raton

Eddie Coyle · February 12, 2015, 08:13:37 PM

If I can be Gary Brooker or Robin Trower, then I join Procol Harum. I don't care for the climate where Boko Haram inhabits and some of them appear to approach being uppity.

Procol Harum is better dressed, which seals that deal for me. Seems like the far less confrontational option.

The General · February 12, 2015, 08:40:15 PM

Before you decide, keep in mind- both groups get tons of chicks.

Procol Harum: Founded 1967. 6 members, average age 69. Allies: Jethro Tull and Moody Blues. Preferred Weapons: Rock and Roll.

Boko Haram: Founded 2002. +/- 8,500 members, average age 22. Allies: Al Qaeda and ISIS. Preferred Weapons: Rocks and Guns. And Machetes. And Bombs.

The battle looks grim by the numbers but my bet is we'll still be seeing tour dates for Procol long after Boko breaks up...

I wonder if Robin knows about JBW's Caravan to Midnight.

Art's worried about bumper music, while that ogre Wells is lifting an album/song title. Would be funny if a cease and desist was sent his way.

==========================================
Yust an few senile reminences,ya shoore.
After "Let Us Proceed"effectiveley fell apart,Mr.Trower performed with an new band,and released several pretty seriously metallic l.p.'s
My remembrances were of "Bridge of Sighs"from "For Earth Below",which i theenk was based on two possible sources,the Zend-Avesta,maybe,Brahmanic accounts found also in other myths associated with indo-aryan sources,describeing"chindvit"bridge...
Maybe this is Manichaean/Farsian-Persi-an?
And,an single,from this lp,was an apocolyptic vision-dream-nightmare with lyrics that seem personal,
"Day of The Eagle"...
Any-one have the post-P_H Lp's by Mr.Trower,to-day?

I only listened to Wells occasionally, and certainly never heard the Sandy Hook shit I have read about here. The shows I heard weren't too bad - he has the best late night voice of any of the past or present C2C hosts, and also the best bumper music. A shame he has taken the Alex Jones path, I thought he had potential.

I would have been interested if Harum Scarum had been an option. Not Harem Scarem, though, they are just Canadian punks.

He started out ok, like you say-his voice fit the show and anybody playing things like Stanley Clarke/Jeff Beck's "Rock and Roll Jelly" gets bonus points here...but the Aurora shootings were the first glimpse of his "they're gonna grab our guns" mentality and that showed up in spades with Sandy Hook, then the Marathon bombing. False Flag folderol.

Welcome back, brother. You've been sorely missed.

Great to see you diving in on the obscure Canadian bands wagon. Eddie might have some competition!

Wells has good taste in music. I remember him playing Medicine Jar by Wings, Bad Co's Leaving You, lots of deep cuts. Was fortunate to miss his lunatic fringe stuff, I guess.
