An occasional local visitor. He was friends with David Cope and George Winston:

OK... I NEED TO KNOW
How do you embed a YouTube vid? None of the instructions that I find seem to work. Thanks.

Re: Music recommendations
Here's how I do it
Start the Youtube clip in another window and "copy the video URL"
Paste that on the forum page - it looks something like this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diP-o_Jx ... detailpage
Delete everything up to and including the v=
Delete the & sign and anything that follows. Not all video URLs have '&feature' etc on them; some would just end at the 'sA' in the above example and need no further deletion.
You end up with something like this:
diP-o_JxysA
Highlight it (as you would for a Quote or Image or URL) and hit the 'youtube' option
You get this

You can also hoover your mouse pointer over the youtube link in the reply section and it provides instruction...
Sometimes it seems as though one has to cross the line just to figger out where it is

Re: Music recommendations
Back in the day (70's early 80's) I was a fan of The Good Rats. Local Long Island band. Took my housemates to a show they did when I was up in Buffalo. They fell for them also.
They might be on youtube but I can't get there to look.

One can always count on rubato to add a useless comment to subjects he has absolutely no clue about...rubato wrote:Pop is pop. It comes and goes. Leaves no residue.

Rubato fails to realise that very little of what has been posted here is "pop".

No residue whatsoever!
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

Re: Music recommendations
Some can tell that a thread entitled "Music recommendations" is for ...... errrmmm....... "music recommendations," not just showing what a facile unintelligent piece of shit with no taste rubato is.

Re: Music recommendations
You actually don't know what you look like, do you?
Well if you live in an echo chamber that is the danger isn't it?
Too funny.

You cowardly piece of dog shit.
