Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 26, 2016 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

The next morning at breakfast he asks another prisoner why everyone laughed when someone yelled "58". The other prisoner said that the same jokes get handed around and end up being assigned numbers. After a few months he had learned a good bit of these jokes and one night yells out "36!", which he knows is a particularly funny joke but is met by dead silence. The next morning he asks one of his fellow prisoners why no one laughed, since it is a particularly funny joke. The prisoner replied, "Some people just don't know how to tell a joke."

is a nickelodeon the same as a jukebox?

Nope, no matter what Teresa Brewer thinks, it's not!

A rhetorical question, annie? Or one concerning the ontology of musical devices?

It's too bad David Lee Roth said "record machine" instead of "juke box" in the song Jump, otherwise I'm sure we'd be hearing it today.

cool, i had no idea.. only popular for about 15 years..so the song: "put another nickel in, in the nickelodeon" is misleading

Yea of all the bands I like, Van Halen may have the weakest lyrics in their songs.

So, we'll expect a jukebox instead of a band for hoof and mouth...?

@annie: I was wrong. You are correct. The lyric is misleading. I had confused Nickelodeon with a Kinescope.

Were it possible, UM, I would send you over a nice hot cup of coffee and a piece of home made pie. Great job on the jukebox tribute (my daughter, as a tot, used to call it "the juice box"), and greater job still on your last minute sit in for Our Leader. Great weekend and great week to you.

I used to work at this shitkicker restaurant and lounge and every Saturday and Sunday morning used to have to muck out the empty lounge before all the drunks came shuffling back in. The juke box was my salvation. The guy that stocked it and collected the coins not only showed me how to make it play for free but also gave me the codes for the dozen or so records that weren't listed on the menu - mostly rock music.
