First term Jindal was solid. Second term Jindal with presidential aspirations was terrible.

Wholeheartedly agree.

It’s 2 hours and they didn’t even get to 1970. They didn’t cover any of the absolutely wild shite that they did in the 70s. None of the touring wildness. Nothing on Bonham’s demons and the crazy drinking that led to his death.

Um, the movie is titled "Becoming Led Zeppelin"... :rolleyes:

Only game of theirs I ever attended was their 1st ever home opener, which I found out this evening was 10 years ago today.

The stadium is right across from the Beau Rivage, and on the edge of Biloxi's shell of a 'downtown'. On- street parking was free and safe just a block or two in that direction, by Nativity BVM Church on Howard Avenue.

I think there's a brewpub close by the stadium on the north side.

If casinos are your thing, again, Beau Rivage is across Hwy. 90 and Hard Rock is a couple of blocks down.

If you make a day of it, I recommend the Walter Anderson Museum in Ocean Springs and the George Ohr Museum in Biloxi. Beauvoir is kind of neat, too.

Have fun!

World's Fair-- 1984 -- best summer of my life. I was 19, didn't have a care in the world, in college and had my whole future in front of me. The world was my oyster.

Worked there from opening day to closing day (worked on weekends only in the fall), lots of my friends did, too. My spot was in a gift shop right by the Space Shuttle. Could go to the Fair anytime for free; saw lot of bands and shows there at the Amphitheatre and at clubs along Fulton Street (Sheilas!). Made a lot of new friends from work and met loads of girls, dated a few. Made good money that enabled me to go out and have lots of fun when not working, and buy things like cool clothes, albums, gas in the car, etc.. My friends started off their band that summer, my mom finally got rid of my a-hole ex-stepfather, and at the end of the summer, fell in love with and started a serious relationship with my now-wife.

Such good times, such memories.

Okay, since nobody got this one, I'll give you another one from the same movie, a little easier.
Hint: the movie came out before a lot of you were born.

Pretty sure that was the 2nd flick of a double feature my family saw at the old Westgate Drive-in on Vets back in 1973.

The first movie was Badlands by Terrence Malick, with Martin Sheen, Sissy Spacek and Warren Oates as her dad.

I guess it was Warren Oates night at the Westgate that night.

We left shortly after Two Lane Blacktop started; my sister and I were kids and it was getting late.

Opposite situtation with mine. I went to my 40th a couple of years ago. In attendance were doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, successful business owners, and a former marine fighter pilot and current 3 star general. We were all happy to see each other, talk about our kids and lives, and discuss old times.
