Nothing like some health issues to make you look back at your life with better focus and clarity. It's 1984, I'm in love and about to get married. Life was about to change and life was certainly good. Lionel Ritchie's music was a big part of those "happy looking forward to the future times" Singing along to "Stuck on You" I was!!
Great memories of that period. Just saying; and I know I; 'm not unique. I'm sure you have many of the same if you look back.
These guys have given the song renewed popularity and Lionel;s song is back on the Top 10 Pop List.
Herels their version in duet from The View, television show. Apparently one of the judges, Mr. Snoop Doggy himself brought the two together for the performance.
Enjoy! Who are you stuck on?

Long Weekend In Canada, USA and most of the world. Not Mexico friends. Fewest paid vacations. It is the hardest-working country on the planet. In terms of work hours. Not judging, not afraid of work, maybe the Mennonite work ethic thing in me, but we all know we're always at our best working after a mental or physical break. Check the data here: https://www.mentalfloss.com/posts/hardest-working-countries #
For those of you on the last long weekend and last holiday of the summer months maybe you want to find something to BELIEVE in today? 😀 We'll do it down in Mexico too, later of course. Gotta stay hydrated.👍

Crocodilios and Rock Can Mix...Such A Great Rockin Audience Participation Video Below.
It's probably reason 11 of a Top 10 list of why you should be at Coco Ixtapa Beach Klub on Sunday afternoon, Rock 'n Blues Explosions, The Festival 2025, Goes To The Beach...The Pacific Ocean. At Playa Linda near Ixtapa. Tequila Rock 'n Blues Explosion Events & Fests But I just discovered this great video so it's time to tie it all together.
First you need to go and visit the popular Crocodile and Wild Bird Sanctuary at Playa Linda...yes real Crocodiles in their protected and secure natural habitat...you can wear a Croc, but don't mess with these guys anywhere else.
Then come on down a few 100 yards away and let's get our Crocodile Rock on. We'll get it performed and you can all sing and dance along like the big crowd at Madison Squar Garden is in the video below. A Must See for what Performers should strive for in terms of audience participation if possible., imho.
Reiner Piehl originally from Edmonton, Alberta Canada, now of Victoria, British Columbia, will be with again in 2025. We're very glad to have him back with piano and saxophone backups for all musicians. Maybe we can get him to lead the way and he can be our Elton John for the day, with a rousing rendition of the song just like in the video. We need a singer.
Maybe Trebor Villa our Mister Do Everything at Fest 2025 (Bob Dylan tribute, Carlos Santana music, Classic Blues and Rock covers and originals) Juan Roberto Villaseñor can be our guy. "He's the guy", as Adrian Monk would say. Just finished the series on Netflix in case you wondered where that last phrase came from.

‘Crocodile Rock’, the initial release from ‘Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player’, was the first Elton single ever to reach #1 in the US, leading the way...

Anybody offended by these? Will the cancel culture get us? Too old school? All part of the more fun at our Fest, more fun in Mexico we hope to have. Something we can offer all the restaurant and bar partners we will have for 2025 at Tequila Rock 'n Blues Explosion Events & Fests and others we will feature in our coming soon Restaurant and Bar Directory

We've got about another 10 of these ready to go, Such as: "Why Tequila is Better Than A Relationship"

If we don't laugh, we'll all go insane, to paraphrase, Jimmy Buffett, Changes in Attitudes, Changes iN Latitude (I think that meant Mexico and other South of the border destinations.) 😀
