Taxman

Seymouro
Had to post this on Tax Day!

They just got me and the wife for 6 large two weeks ago. Could have been 9 if not for us tax sheltering $13K in two IRAs.

Brilliantly written song by George.

Wowie... a bad that could have been even worse!

Here's another take on the taxman theme... Cheap Trick with Daryl Hall from a Live From Daryl's House episode = AWESOME.

Whodathunk taxes would've caused cool music.

Beatles rocked but Cheap Trick STILL rocks!

I imagine losing 6 large could NOT have felt very good. Sorry to hear that dude.

Yes, Cheap Trick does still rock. I saw an interview once where they said that they were asked if they were going to do a comeback tour and their response was "we've never went anywhere."  Cheap Trick has continued to record and tour since their debut in 77! (band formed in 74).

Love that band.

Rick Nielsen is like Curly Howard onstage. Flicking "picks" into the crowd. Very accomplished player to boot!

That Cheap Trick Taxman is great but it's not a version of the original, right? Sounds like a whole new song and is quite fabulous. Those "Daryl's House" vid's are very cool. You've posted some of those in the past if I recall correctly.

It took me a few seconds to realize that myself, although there are references to the original in the song. At first I thought it was a different arrangement but it is a different beast. Great job by CT.

Yep, if you use the search function and type in "Daryl's" you'll see all of them. I never really went for Hall & Oats but Daryl's house is really cool.
