I was listening to some of Tommy Cash's stuff tonight...

TommyCash!?

Ok, 'fess up...how many of y'all didn't know Johnny also had a brother in the music biz?

Or that Dolly's sister Stella had a couple of hits?

And not only Loretta's sister Crystal was in the biz, but also her nephew, another sister, and even her twins cut a few tracks that got some airplay.

So what other famous musical artists do you know that had a sibling or other close relative trying to make a living performing?

Off-topic, but I was wondering something, this morning, while I was in the shower: How come we don't see people with the surnames of Beethoven, Chopin, or Mozart, anymore?

"Marty Beethoven, plumber, at your service!"
"Roscoe Chopin, here to clean your pool, ma'am!"
"Emily Mozart, violinist for the London Philharmonic, gave her first solo performance today..."

A deed poll is a wonderful thing. My ex-boss would have had far less chance of attracting employees with his original surname of Hitler.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?

Hahaha... My wife had an English teacher in high school, who was of Iranian descent. His unfortunate surname was Fukker.

Poor fella...

I went to school with a fella' named Harry Balls, and my dad went to school with a guy named Donald Duck. A guy I work with said he want to school with a girl named Happy Knobs.

And people wonder why occasionally kids grow up to murder their parents. :no:

It was a confusion of ideas between him and one of the lions he was hunting in Kenya that had caused A. B. Spottsworth to make the obituary column. He thought the lion was dead, and the lion thought it wasn't.
