DevonDeathTrip 2,366 Posted May 18, 2018 As @Joey Russ mentioned in the pop thread, these two giants of the music scene probably deserve a thread of their own. Simon is about to stop touring and Garfunkel is a genuine eccentric, always coming up with stuff to keep us amused. I wouldn't like to guess which one will go first, but feel it is right that we have a thread in place as they progress into their autumn years. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,684 Posted May 18, 2018 To be fair to the eccentric and sometimes inexcusably pretentious Art he has a sense of humour. At Simon's 70th birthday party he started a speech by asking which of the pair would get to sing at the other's funeral. He's also has a "library" section of his website listing every book he's read for decades. It's updated to the end of last year and ends with "How to Grow Old." So maybe he's managing his own end game with the intention of seeing Simon out. As a female friend remarked when I showed her the library section of the website at work "I'd love to meet him but I bet he was a crap shag even when he was really famous." That library section: http://www.artgarfunkel.com/library.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here we go again, this guy is just white trash, he makes a thread for every single white ice hockey play that has FLU, but then when real music legends are getting old, he gets upset when they get their own thread. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
