Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

People will come.......
It's true. I visited the Field of Dreams in the early 90's.
Afaik, there's no Cubs. There is a
C incinnati Reds player and a
C leveland Indians player.

Ah, must be a Reds logo. It's partially hidden behind another player. Thanks.

That is one of the most beautiful “speeches” in the history of movies. And I’m not even a big baseball fan.

I'm sure many, likely including him, are surprised he made it this long. He had some great songs, like "Sunday Morning Coming Down"
Well, I woke up Sunday morning
and of course, written by Kristofferson but owned by Janis, "Bobby McGee"

I was playing several Kristofferson vids with my favourites of some of his many songs. It's interesting how many different people sang with him in so many performances. Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash (of course) many of the big time country women. But I was surprised to see who I think is Glen Frey playing guitar for him on "Loving her was easier" See it below, about .40, 1.25 and other spots.

Here's Sheryl Crow with him, doing "Bobby McGee"
Compare the difference in how Kris originally sang it, sorta draggy, and how they do it after Janis did her version. This one is much closer to Janis' version, and is very good.

I never got to be a huge fan of his music, but appreciated some of his
movie roles :
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore 1974 :thumbup:
Trouble in Mind (film) 1985. The music performed by Marianne Faithfull is killer.
