    @Runtimer you can come out of the penalty box.

    Anyone watch Last Man Standing? A youth hockey coach put PEZ in the penalty box. The whole team ended up in there. :smile:

    The first two parts of the clue almost fit bitxbit. Magic was a Laker though.

    Joint is slang. So is the name used by the band.

    AHa!
    thanks @BillyC96 , that hint was what I needed
    (although when you first offered slang, I was taking 'Joint' in a whole nuther direction:
    i.e., Dick Twins?)

    and thanks @Mustang_Susie , that made me laugh and sing :)

    Doobie Brothers / China Grove

    Um... sure... :D
    I kept thinking of jail or prison for "joint" and then "Stir Crazy" comes to mind...

    I think it's Genesis.

    BillyC96 Posts: 7,560 Member
    I agree. I think two of the songs are In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel and In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins. I'm still working on the third song.
