MGK VC shirt looks great, Steve. Mike's contest is giving us the opportunity to pull no punches when it comes to saying who we're not a fan of. I've got my artists lined up! Every home needs some Little Richard. 😎🎶

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Ed! Nothing like taking down some of the giants. LR - the true king of R&R. Cheers!

[@vinylshawn4757]

Oh gut punch on R.E.M.! Nice design on those shirts. Good luck Steve 🙂

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Shawn! May have been to the gut, but it wasn't a sucker punch. Thanks and cheers!

[@TheVinylLoungeMtl]

What? You’re back? Did not even know, happy to see you man… Great smiling & joyful entry as usual… 🎶😎

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Olivier ! came back the first, I've been subbed to you for a while, but you probably didn't recognize the channel name. Cheers!

[@TheVinylLoungeMtl]

@ 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@briankessler3501]

One cat with a helluva attitude, lol. Great shirt design, imo.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Thanks Brian!

[@TheAuditoryVinyl]

Very nice! And I really like the Bolin connections!

[@Americanasam1994]

We know you love the Master's. Hilarious that that's the one Costello you own!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Sam! I know! How ridiculous is that?

[@northernvinylguy]

Hey Steve.. Another VC'er named Darryl... I'll definitely have to check that out! All we'd need is a VC'er named Larry and we could do a livestream together... hehe... And 1956 is a great year.. the year my mom was born. Great video as always. Cheers, Darryl.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Darryl! Nice Newhart reference! So I am old enough to be your father, huh? I think I'll go back to bed now.....

[@GlenKellawayfromthebasement]

I didn’t even know your channel was up and running..I just subbed..good luck in the contest..I am routing for you to finish second..I hope I get an invite to the big party..Police and REM,,damn..I love both…Elvis !! Those first three albums are classic..Clemente..what a player…great entry..great to have you back❤❤glen

[@Americanasam1994]

Everyone is invited!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Glen! I've had the kettle on, just waiting for you to drop by. Thanks!

[@JackTheMusicGuy]

that is a funny live show memory lol!!!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Thanks Jack!

[@RandyforRoyals]

Wow. You just ragged on two of my favorites in R.E.M and Elvis Costello. Oh Well. Stockholm is a great pick as I really enjoyed my stay there. I would like to go back to Switzerland as I have only been to Interlaken. Roberto Clemente is a great pick. Way to work in Tommy Bolin a couple of times. I just played his album Private Eyes yesterday.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Randy! As the saying goes, "don't blame the messenger"......Good old # 21 was a class act too. Tommy gets mention in my next video too. Cheers!

[@EightVinylLow]

Hey Steve. Nice shirt. Switzerland would be so cool. So basically, I’m going to have to sing some Billy Joel for you is what you’re saying. Ten Years After - yes!!! Love the roadie story. Great entry!!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Emma! I don't know if you're a trained singer, but I can't imagine you being any worse than the Piano Man. TYA a big yes! Thanks!

[@EightVinylLow]

@ If by trained singer, you mean sounds like a dying walrus, then yes.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

@@EightVinylLow See you later!

[@djenerateFL]

I'm a Bolin fan for sure. What a body of work for such a short career.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

So true! I was lucky enough to see him on the Private Eyes tour.

[@rallstonianmusicreport1975]

Nice entry my friend! It's a shame that MGK has stooped to age shaming. I never thought in a million years! I liked your answers for favorite athlete and share a concert memory. Good luck in the contest!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Thanks Steve! I'll keep an eye open for yours. Cheers!

[@MGKBOSTON]

That’s two votes for Billy Joel so far Steve. Mfidelity also selected him. I’m not a fan either. I’m not an REM but The Police..noooooo! Getting close as you can to a jazz album. Leave it to you to find a Tommy Bolin connection. I’m not a Costello fan either. Baseball! Love it. I am feeling the positive Ten Years After vibrations. What a night that sounds like. The roadies 😂 Another Tommy Bolin connection with Moxy. Little Richard. Loved the video Steve. ✌️

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Mike! Proof there is such a thing as a bad BJ......I vaguely remember liking some Police when they first came out, but I've never owned any of their stuff. Cheers!

[@cristianosorio2517]

Hi Steve!!! That's a very cool t-shirt and great entry to Mike's contest too..... you really don't like some very "nice" and "popular" solo artist Billy Joel, Elvis Costello and even Sting's voice plus R.E.M and the Police all in one video. Hope you can travel to Switzerland soon, nice place to visit (but expensive though.....) cheers and be well

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Cristian! Never one to hold back my opinion. Thanks and cheers!

[@TheSpiritofVinyl]

Cool stuff, love the shirt, never would have guessed '56 thanks for sharing I'm working on mine right now

[@RichStrickler]

Some interesting hot takes...busting Billy Joel's balls, dissing The Police, Elvis Costello and R.E.M. etc. But you balanced that out with a great call on Roberto Clemente. A truly one of a kind player!!! Great entry Steve.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Rich! I just realized that all 4 of those artists had their most successful stretch from 1977-1987. I know music took a turn for the worse (for me) after 1976. Most all of my fav classic rock bands had peaked by then. Cheers!

[@musicisajourney]

I used to have all the Ten Years After albums either on CD or vinyl or cassette from the debut to About Time. Hey, Moxy! I just showed that in a video for some reason.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Peter! Used to? Please don't tell me you got rid of your TYA collection. You probably showed Moxy in one of the many Canadian threads.....

[@musicisajourney]

@ I only have four TYA albums on CD now. Sssh, Watt, Cricklewood Green, and A Space in Time. I’ve shown Moxy three or four times.

[@duringthemeanwhilst]

oooh another contest to have a go at. I'm really close to 1 trillion subs myself. Only, let me see... 1 trillion to go give or take 🙂

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Nick! I never realized until Mike's contest how attainable a number like one trillion is. Cheers!

[@mistery-ed7900]

Here's a concert memory.. Jazz group from the Netherlands, Willem Breuker Kollektief playing in San Francisco. He leads the band off stage and goes down the aisle. Reaches over, scritches my girlfriend on top of her head and then the band members all do the same. That was a once in a lifetime kinda thing. I have at least a thousand jazz albums but only a handful of C&W. Rose Maddox anyone?

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Mr. Ed! Jazz from the Netherlands. Whom were they opening up for?

[@mistery-ed7900]

@@AisForAliceBisForBob I think they were the only act. I believe the tour was backed by the government of the Netherlands. The show was at The Great American Music Hall.

[@n0s0luti0n]

Your intro music was a good wakeup this morning! Subbed Darryl... thanks for always giving attention to new channels. Cheers Steve!

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Scott! Thanks, I'm sure Darryl will appreciate it. Cheers!

[@thomaswery3087]

Nice contest.I'm with you Steve don't really like the Police or Elvis Costello.Also really like Ten Years After very underrated band

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Thanks Thomas, you have impeccable taste!

[@vikingbrace]

I have that Ten Years After album but I can’t say I ever listen to it. I think it’s actually more popular to crap on Billy Joel in the vc than it is for people to like him. So that was a cop out pick. I give you credit though for picking the Police, even though they’re actually one of my favorite bands. For a country connection you could have picked Muswell Hillbillies by the Kinks. Or even maybe The Band. The Stones do some great country songs. “Country and Western “? What are you, 90 years old? No one says that. I envy the vacation spots you have been to. Those are some of my dream destinations. Why do I feel like you have a “special “ hidden room in your house with a Tommy Bolin poster on the ceiling over a single bed? The shirt design is very cool. I’m probably forgetting something but I originally watched this video hours ago. Good luck in Mikey’s contest.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

Hey Gary! I am glad to be part of the majority, and it goes to prove, there are bad BJ's......I'm not 90, but apparently Mike is. If you take a look at the questions in the comments of Mike's video, for Question # 5 it clearly says "Country & Western." It's actually a King sized bed. Thanks, looking forward to your entry!

[@vikingbrace]

@ I just wanted to see that biting wit used on a more controversial figure 😊 BJ just seemed like a waste of your talent. I need to talk to Mike about this country and western term 😂

[@EmbryonicRobot]

Your dislike of The Police and R.E.M. are like a dagger to my heart.

[@AisForAliceBisForBob]

But I did pick The Cure as my album of the year. Surely that has to count for something?

[@EmbryonicRobot]

@@AisForAliceBisForBob Yes, the Cure does count for something, though I don't know what! 🙂
