All considered,....I rank Donny way ahead of today's kiddy heart throbs (example - Beiber).

Actually, that's Merrill playing bass in the Crazy Horses video. Donny is playing keyboards.

+1. I couldn't post it though, I was too ashamed to admit I knew the difference :D

You have no idea how much better you made me feel by spotting that detail Timothy. I am afraid that I would not have known the difference otherwise. :lol:

I like this one a little better, I think everyone in the world wore those Elvis Suits back then. I've even seen pics of Sonny Bono in one

They say a picture is worth a THOUSAND WORDS.

Well, lets hear what THIS one has to say!!!!
Maybe Donny's trying to PROVE that he's a little bit rock and roll......
EXCELLENT TOM!
I can attest that Donny is "a LITTLE bit Rock and Roll". I was at a Clapton Show (the tour when Phil Collins played drums). About halfway through opening act Robert Crays set, I heard a hubbub behind me and looked to see Stevie Ray Vaughn coming down the aisle. He sat right in front of me. A voice behind me asked, "Who is that"? I turned around to answer, and it was DONNY! "Who is that INDEED"! My evil twin was tempted to tell him and offer to switch seats so they could put together a deal to record and tour together (also I could sit next to the GORGEOUS Mrs. Osmond!).

All this time I thought it was Chris Squire that made Tony aspire to be a Rickenbacker bassist. :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's EASY B, Donny has a very pretty sister! :wink:


I have to be careful here, otherwise it will come up all *****'s LOL! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Oh well, Donny never responded to my post on his Facebook page. I know his sister keeps a very busy schedule and I believe they are
doing a Christmas show in Detroit while not doing their nightly Vegas show.

Friends with Donny on Facebook, eh? He hasn't responded because he knows you're just using him to get to Marie, but don't worry, he's coming to your house for Christmas dinner! :lol: :lol:

I'll bet Danny Bonaduce blows him away. Watch Danny sometime-the notes ascend as his hand moves down the neck. Still trying to figure out how he does that.
