Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
since the concert Monday night, Hubby has been looking up Joe songs. He says Joe is his favorite.
Anyway, he found ILBT :) I had forgotten about that song. It is absolutely too funny.
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
I can't believe he actually performs that song anymore! :hand:
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
I'm often one of those people that ends up defending the Eagles. I usually do it by reminding people of what amazing lyrics they have. Then on more then one occasion I've found myself saying at the end of the conversation, "At least they don't sing about women's breasts!!" The last time I did that was the last time because I remembered this song of Joe's and well, it's not my favorite. I'm afraid he gets remembered more for those type of lyrics then he does for lyrics like Collage or Song for Emma, etc....
I too am shocked that Joe still performs ILBT.
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
Well - I remember going to solo shows where guys in the audience are yelling out for him to sing the song, so it is a crowd-pleaser for a lot of folks. He did play it at a couple of shows I was at in Atlantic City a few years ago, but IIRC he didn't play it the last time I saw him in Northern VA. :hmm: now I'm going to have to go back and check the setlists for those shows to see if I'm remembering correctly. :?
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
No doubt about it! It's a very popular song. It's a funny song. I just don't think it's his best work. I'm just wish that people would take him a little more serious based on his full body of work.
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
I don't think he performs it, we just found it. I thought it was quite funny. Joe has a totally fun sense of humor and as a woman, I don't get offended by it.

If you read Dreamer's post above, it states that he has indeed performed it in the last few years.
While I can listen to it, it always makes me think Sexy Girl isn't so bad after all.
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
Yep! Oregon 2012 he performed it. I also saw at least two other live clips of that song from 2012 on youtube.
Re: Make Your Own "Best of Joe Walsh"
He still performs it on occasion, unfortunately. Yes, I'm sure certain kinds of men find it terrific, and those men are usually the most vocal (and the most drunk).
I just sit there and cringe until it's over whenever I've been subjected to it live.
Yeah, yeah, I know. It's a joke.
It also happens to suck.
Sorry, Joe! Luckily songs that bad are the exception, not the rule!
