Captain Beefheart (aka DonVan Vliet) and The Magic Band produced what is commonly regarded by critics and fans as one of rock's few truly original bodies of work. Combining elements of free jazz, blues and rock, they produced something distinctly different from anything which had ever been heard before, and heavily influenced a wide range of later musicians such as Tom Waits, PJ Harvey and John Lydon.
In the words of Frank Zappa, "Listen, be quiet and pay attention to this man's music, because if you don't, you might miss something important and we wouldn't want that to happen to you. You need all the friends you can get."
Quite simply the most original and greatest musician of the last 100 years.
A drinking game of Italian origin. Basically you sit in a circle around a table...everyone has a beer. You basically have to say "I am Captain Beef", tap each hand on the top of the table then on the bottom, tap your glass, stand up, and drink a sip. Then do the same thing with each motion repeated twice ("I am Captain Beef Beef", etc.). Finally do the same thing again, repeated 3 times. If you screw up, finish your beer and get a new one. If you finish the cycle, the next person has to do it. It's really a pretty shitty drinking game, but what can you really expect from those damn Europeans?
We played Captain Beef for 5 hours and after about 4 hours Johnny screwed up once and had to drink. It was hilarious. Or maybe it would have been, but I was too sober. Just shoot me.
1. Select a player (real or fantasy) during a sports draft to spite or anger one or more of your opponents because they had intended to select him/her.
2. Select a player (real or fantasy) during a sport draft to put one or more of your opponents at a strategic disadvantage.
1. Billy hate drafted Chad OchoCinco because he knew Sam had wanted him since he is from Cincinnati. Billy already had plenty of players to fill that position but wanted to make sure Sam didn't get him.
2. Billy hate drafted Peyton Manning because he was the only good quarterback left and he knew Sam had been planning on drafting him.
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaningLyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
