living colour

Perhaps the first all-African-American rock/heavy metal band in history-- or rather, the first mainstream all-African-American rock/heavy metal band in history, Living Colour was, and still is, a revolutionary band, which combined raging guitar riffs with amazing drum beats and crazy, nimble basslines,and occasionally a synth or two (like in Hemp or Auslander). Although they put out wuite a few records, the two they're best known for are Tim's Up, which mainly consisted of vicious, off-beat guitar riffs, jazzy synthisizers, and hypnotic basslines, and Stain, which, except for the songs"Hemp" and "WTFF," is purely metal.

The mambers of the band are Vernon Reid (the guitarist, and one of the last real artists alive), Corey Glover (vocalist, Danny Glover's son, star of the movie "Platoon," and the founding member of Living Colour), William Calhoun (drummer, and music major (woot to the nootches!)), and Doug Wimbish (bassist, originally backed Grandmaster Flash and the Furious on Sugar Hill records). Each member is key in the execution of the music, and each instrument melds together with the others to create a smooth, but eerily off-beat sound which marked the black man's first real foray into white history. What's more, they managed to use the white man's music to fight racism, sexism, homophobia, AIDS, poverty in Africa, and conformity.

The members of the band split up in 1995, each going their separate ways, then reformed sometime in the past 5 or 6 years. They are still touring, and are coming to the Chicago House of Blues on December 5th, 2005. Tickets for general admission cost $20. Which means that the House of Blues is already $20 richer.

Colour wolf

A woman chaser.

Used by Chinese immigrants, it's a translation from the Chinese term.

I saw him with three different girls last week, he's colour wolf.

colder than a two peckered billy goat

Phrase used in the Midwest United States that means "It's really cold".
Often used in rural areas by senior citizens or those over 50.

The temperature dropped to -5 degrees during the daylight hours. My grandmother exclaimed, "It's colder than a two peckered billy goat out here." I agreed and retorted, "It's colder than a well digger's ass"

colourway

A term, used by trainer fashionistas, to describe a particular colour combination used in the design of an item of footwear. Also used by said cognoscenti to identify those in the know (obsessive seakers of elusive, very limited colourways) from mere mortals (those foolish enough to buy any old mass-produced colourway).

This word can, I reckon, be applied to any article, or item that is available in a variety of colour combinations.

"If you didn't already know about the super-limited Futura colourways on the new Bathing Ape ***** you don't deserve to own them."

brother from another colour

What a black man calls a white man who he be tight with. Resembles a J.D - Brown Bear relationship. This white man probably did some fucked up stuff to be accepted by the black man.

YOU BE MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER COLOUR HOMIE!
