Re: DBT and "Yo Gabba Gabba! Live!"
This show is kinda cool I guess. My kids watch it from time to time. I personally have not sat down and really watched it much but one of the times I did, I saw Jack Black dancing with the large, phallic shapped, one eyed monster. Something seems a little odd about that.. .. What is odd about that ...

Re: Origin of The Cooley Bird
Excellent post Mark Lynn. Thanks - thats exactly what I wanted to know about it...not exact meanings and such...just a little on how it came to be. I love the fact that the meaning of its presence is open for interpretation. Art/Beauty being in the eye of the beholder and all...

Re: Origin of The Cooley Bird

Hey y'all, I am pretty new to the 3DD site and was never very involved in 9B so I don't know if this subject has been covered ad nauseum or not but I am curious what anyone knows about the origins, myths, legends, evolutionary history, etc... for the famous Cooley Bird. Is it an idea born from the ...

Re: The Epitome of DBT
BTW - It just occured to me that we are on the #DD forum and not one person has even mentioned this as "the" song. Seems like if its the name of the Fan Club it should at least be tossed out there.

Re: SRO in 2011
Whatever the date... I am going to do my best to attend. A Shoals or B'Ham venue might be appropriate given the setting of the album.
