10 drinking songs! Yay!

very clever idea, Ginger -- some Elderberry Wine to start.  I hope we hear Lou Reed's "Power of Positive Drinking"...

I bet we hear Don Henley's "You're Not Drinking Enough" and of course some Tom Waits.

indeed, "The Piano has been Drinking" would make my day. Dunno who this is drinkin' Tanqueray, tho'.

than a frontal lobotomy."

Hrm... guess "Tequila Sunrise" may have trumped solo Henley.

You & me & the bottle makes three... I know this but can't remember who it is. Brian Setzer? Big Bad Voodoo Daddy?

Surely Mr Thorogood is lurking in the wings.

Clever theme for a set, but I'm sure there will be more songs we'd like to hear than those we will.

Personal choices: Alcoholiday, Teenage Fanclub; Wine, Whiskey and Booze, Minus 5; Titties & Beer, Frank Zappa

Glad we probably won't be hearing: Snortin' Whiskey & Drinking Cocaine-Pat Travers (dumbest name for a drinking song ever)

Let's get right to it.

Agreed, but has any of our 10@10 friends ever played "Boom Boom, Out Go the Lights"?  Especially the live version, thats a fun song.

If Ginger wanted super bonus extra credit she'd have played Neil Diamond's original version of RRW.

I give up.

BTW, the location for that scene from Sideways, is the Sanford Winery, which I had been to at least a half dozen times before that movie was made, and which I recognized instantly when I saw the film.  I also recognized Chris, the wine guy, was playing himself opposite Paul Giamatti.

Edward Norton's character, toasting his friends (before leaving for a prison stint) in Spike Lee's great 25th Hour.  I'd never heard it before then, but I've seen it quoted multiple places since.

I have not seen that, but it's one for my Netflix queue.

And the answer to Ginger's question:

I am NOT drinking any Merlot!!!
