MICHAEL BIEHN Shares Memories With the Late Great BILL PAXTON #insideofyou #billpaxton
I think of Bill often. He was my mother’s brother - my uncle. He was wonderful and my hero. We miss you, Bill. ❤️
I'm very very sorry for your loss, your uncle will always be Super Cool in my memories and I always look forward to 'that' part in Aliens every time.
It is and always will be my top 3 moments in movies ever.
And gave me the idea for my Ute number plates :)
Sorry for your loss. What I liked about your uncle was he always came across as genuinely a good guy. He was an actor I really enjoyed watching. Gone way to soon.
Bill truly rocked and still does to fans ❤
I often think of Bill, a brilliant actor, and much missed by his fans.
A list supporting actor. One of my faves, if he's in it it's worth watching
Bill playing the car salesman in True Lies always kills me. So funny
Because it’s you…
"Fear is not an option."
Don't forget as the waiter in the end scene!😂😂😂
@Mike Hughes his "Oh god..." as he pees himself and runs away from Helen, has me and my mom cracking up!! 😂
It's laugh out loud funny
in 2007 and 2008 I worked background on Big Love. My first day on the show, I was standing on set waiting to be told where to stand, when Bill walked up to me, introduced himself and asked if I'd been assigned a spot. I hadn't. He asked for my name and I told him. He called one of the AD's and had me placed on set. A week later i was cast on the show again and I ran into him and he greeted me by my name, which surprised me. Somehow, I ended up working on that show more than ten times and everytime, Bill saw me on set, he remembered my name. I later found out that he took care to know the names on everyone on his sets, including extras. Not only did he always greet me and others as equals, but he always took the time to chat with background actors. A hell of an actor, and a throughly kind and decent human being. I was devastated when I heard of his passing. A class act all the way
Michael Biehn talking about Bill Paxton. Two of the most underrated character actors of our time. Love those guys!
Biehn was spectacular as Johnny Ringo
Check out far cry 3 blood dragon, Michael is main character
If you count how many people love them you will see that they are not absolutly underrated.
Something about Michael saying: "He and I used to get into some trouble together" with a smile on his face puts a smile on my face too.
I could listen to Michael’s stories all week. Bill Paxton is sorely missed.
Both icons and huge part of my childhood
As an 80's kid, I grew up with Micheal and Bill's movies. ALIENS🥚was a favorite between my Dad and I. I remember saying, Bill Paxton was the only actor to be killed by the Terminator, an Alien & a Predator. He was a one of a kind. 💯
@One Issue Voter I don’t think Lance was in a Terminator movie, was he?
@@robpolaris7272 Yeah, he was. His character was with Paul Winfield most of the time at the police station.
@@robpolaris7272Not only was he in The Terminator, he was originally slated to BE the terminator until Orion demanded a bigger name. He plays Lt Vukovic in The Terminator (Traxler’s right hand man).
@@KRS2000 OH! I remember now. He was one of the two cops talking to Sarah Conner.
@@robpolaris7272 Yep. That's the guy.
He was the one who tried telling a couple of stories but was quickly cut off both times by Lt. Traxler.
Years ago Conan O'Brien was at some movie premiere and Bill Paxton was there too. Conan asked, "Hey Bill, one of our interns is a big fan of yours can you go over and say 'hi?' Mr. Paxton went over to the intern and Conan saw the intern begin to smile, which got bigger and bigger as Mr. Paxton spoke with him. Turns out the intern's favorite movie was 'Tombstone' and Mr. Paxton recited *all* of his lines to him.
Another time I saw him on some other talk show and he showed off a picture of his son who was still a kid at that time. Mr. Paxton was so proud of him!
Flash forward to a couple years after his death...I was watching some fan made 'ALIENS' short here on RUclips and in the cast was Mr. Paxton's son all grown up. I actually felt a lump in my throat seeing him and his name in the credits as his dad didn't get to.
Beautiful story, just shows what awesome guys he was. His kid continuing the legacy, that's life.
Btw, 80's kids what a privilege.
Bill Paxton in Twister will never be forgotten. Simply fun and brilliant.
We all miss Bill Paxton. He was a phenomenal actor and a great all-around human being.
I was a kid 6 yeats old in 86. I wanted to be Jennette Goldstein ( Vasquez) and Hudson ( Bill Paxton) my heros as a 6 year old. I joined the miliary because those characters. Hudson goes out like a Boss level 32. When i heard he had passed. I cried and cried and broke stuff. That was my hero. Heck writing this im teary eyed. My favorite actor. I wish i could say. The role you played in a movie. Influenced my life.
I was lucky enough to know Bill Paxton, he was as amazing a person off camera as he was an actor and director. Ironically, I was always a fan of Michael Biehn and I asked Bill once what Michael was like. The respect and love was mutual for sure.
We all miss him too bro, Hicks and Hudson, brothers for life.
Of all the celebrity deaths Bill Paxton's affected me the most. He was such a talented actor and beautiful person.
Loved him as an actor and human.
Sorry but how can somebody gives such a silly statement at all? I mean... For example... Sharon Tate's death? Didn't affect you more? I mean they killed an eight months pregnant woman and cut the baby out of her. Every death is equally bad for who happens with. So in an objective view nobody gives a s&@#t how you estimate others tragedy in you little subjectivity...
You can hear how Bill Paxton's passing has affected Michael.
Plus, throughout his career, both of them really, you would have never known they had health issues...
Both Michael and Bill, plus you, Michael Rosenbaum, are the Epitome of "Working Actors".
Thank you for this.
I put my hamster in a sock and slammed it against the furniture.
@@TippyHippy mmmm dinner is ready….
@TippyHippy that is what losers do 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bill Paxton was from Fort Worth Texas and we are proud of him. Bless his memory
One of the best duos in film ever, the Hicks and Hudson dynamic was so real they made you feel their pains and their challenges, you genuinely felt for both characters. That bond in film stayed with them in real life always. Aliens was clearly the immortal memory of the best times and so happy that Michael is alive and well to remember it and Bill. RIP Bill, it will never be game over!
Yeah...Bishop should go...good idea
I loved the dynamic of the entire marine squad. Hudsons theatrics are iconic.
@@christianc.2664believe me, I'd rather not. I may be synthetic, but I'm not stupid.
Bill Paxton was so good in everything he did! One of my all time favorites, but so is Michael! Both awesome!
It's interesting that I didn't know Bill Paxton except for in the movies. He was the first actor where I was actually bummed to hear he had passed away. No matter what movie he was in, no matter how small the role, he always stole some scenes and was memorable. Whether it was Chet in Weird Science or Hudson in Aliens or the used car salesman in True Lies, he always made you laugh. I can't imagine how Michael took the loss having been personal friends with him.
Literally the last line here "I miss him". It gets to you..
It still saddens me he is gone. RIP.
Hearing Michael laugh so hard is great. You can see how much life flows into Michael when he brings up Bill.
Bill Paxton was the first person I ever interviewed in person. When he found out I was nervous, he had me do a shot with him and we talked about baseball and Pittsburgh. I realize later he did this to calm my nerves and let me know I was doing a good job. The warmest, most down-to-earth guy. Man, he was great.
As a fan of Paxton, it's always nice to hear behind-the-scenes stories about him. The movie "Frailty" was quite good. His acting in Aliens was so different from anything I had seen with him (I watched Aliens as an adult who understood a lot more about acting and movies than as a child). Michael's candor is most welcome; a bit like Robert Patrick. This show is the best place for stories about acting and movies. The honesty is refreshing.
Frailty is a brilliant movie.
I met Michael in 2017, and it was after Bill Paxton and Powers Boothe passed. I told Michael that I was sorry about his two friends passing. We talked about Bill, and the fact that they did 5 movies together, and he named all 5 of them. I told him that I had seen 4 of them and I told him that the only one I didn't see, was Lords of Discipline. We both agreed that Bill was extremely talented and he said how wonderful of a guy that Bill truly was. It was a great conversation, talking about that and other things.
I miss Bill Paxton and he’s one of my favorite actors of all time. True Lies, Trespass, Aliens, Weird Science, Predator 2, and Frailty are my favorite bill Paxton performances!
Great list!
Terminator and Twister
He was fantastic in Near Dark.
@@Inlinetodie those two as well!
@@oracle013 I agree
Michael Biehn is such an amazing actor and i loved his Kyle Reese performance in The Terminator and his dream cameo in Terminator 2 Judgment Day. He was a badass as Corporal Hicks in Aliens and his crazy performance as Lt Coffey in The Abyss . He was cool as Johnny Ringo in Tombstone . He did an amazing guest star performance in The Mandalorian and i was really surprised 😯.
I miss Bill Paxton 😢. RIP Bill Paxton .
The Abyss! That was a great Biehn performance. I'm sure you've seen the Abyss Extended edition (but if you havent...).
@@Menleah Yes i have watched the Extended Cut and it was awesome.
Lords of Discipline was a great movie! Michael B played a great heavy, and David Keith was so good in the lead. Super underrated and should be more remembered today.
Yes, I have a copy of The Lords of Discipline on dvd, don't think it's available on blu ray, but should be. I made a massive mistake with it once. It showed late on Ch4 one night and I missed the beginning so didn't bother videotaping it and when it finished, I knew I'd screwed up. Then it showed again one day and I recorded it. Such a great movie and based on a book which I am tempted even now to read. Agree too that The Lords of Discipline is another massively underrated movie. It was also the first time I had seen Michael Biehn play a villian and I hated him! I wanted to hit him! Haha. David Keith was also excellent.
I was a cadet when they were filming in Charleston. Not allowed to film on Citadel campus, but invited to watch my hell night and tour the campus and take some of my freshman (knob) to dinner and ask em questions. It was all fascinating to me. *when film came out my junior year, my parents in DC freaked out watching it in theater 😄
William Hope, Lieutenant Gorman from Aliens was in it too.
Eyes front maggot. Eyes front.
Ok who didn’t love Bill Paxton in aliens 😊😂
""Somebody said "alien" she thought they said "illegal alien.""🤣
Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
No, have you?
Game over man. Game over!
@@roughrider6129 🤣🤣🤣
he was cool in Navy Seals too
Bill was the real star of Aliens, he carried the movie. His was the character everyone remembers the most, his were the lines everyone still quotes. He was an exceptional actor and it was always clear to me that he was a good man.
I love that Michael was able to share his story about Bill Paxton. I was sad when he passed. I had just seen him at the LAX a few months before he passed. I wanted to go up and tell him what a fan I was, but I didn't want to bother him. I missed an opportunity for sure. He is in at least five of my all-time favorite movies and Big Love TV show. God Bless you, Bill, and your family.
"Game over man.... Game Over" what a line
If you've never watched Bill Paxton's performance in Near Dark, you should because it's absolutely fantastic.
Loooved that film! That bar scene was crazy!
What a nice story to hear about their friendship together. Bill Paxton is the most famous actor I have met and there have been a couple of others, but Bill was such a nice guy, down to earth and funny, he just made you feel like you were one of his friends! 😅. RIP Bill...
My childhood hero, saw Aliens when i was...5 years old, asked my parents to get me a alien, the xenomorph, they said they don't exist, i was pretty let down, and right after said well when I grow up I want to be a colonial marine because of Mr. Paxton's character, William Hudson
michael and bill were such a big part of my life, my childhood … never met them, dont worship celebs … but these two are solid men, thank you for the joy i have got from watching your films 💙🇺🇸
Bill & Michael also worked together (sort of) in the original Terminator. I say sort of because they didn't appear together. Bill had a very small but important role early in the film - he was one of those three punks at the Griffith Observatory when the still naked Arnold approached them and wanting their clothes.
I'm sure Terminator's part of the 5 films he mentioned.
@@jaylucien669 That was for those who perhaps weren't aware of Paxton's role in the film.
@Jon The scene set the initial tone as to how relentless and indestructible the Terminator would be thruout the movie. And he was the most vocal of those three. Quit overthinking this.
@Jon It is an important scene. Club Mogambo's right
@Jon Nope. Just saying you're wrong and we're right.
“ You don’t steal the American dream, you earn it “. A great line from Bill in the movie “ A Simple Plan. “
Another truly outstanding movie. Very good writing and perfectly developed characters.
I couldn't believe when i heard he died. He was so handsome and charismatic, I loved every movie he was in. I was obsessed with Twister when it came out and had a poster on my wall. 💔
I used to even watch that Training Day TV show just to see The Glorious '80s Bill Paxton Character back on the screen again. Gone way too soon. What a talent.
Me too
Bill's death hit me pretty hard! His movies were tied to my childhood so I will watch anything he is in, because he's in it.
I met Bill Paxton at London comic con and he was really nice. One of the nicest actors I have met.
Paxton and Biehn were two guys I loved seeing in movies.
Bill and Michael are two if my favorite actors. I cried bug time hearing of his passing.
Some actors die and you think how sad you felt when that person died. Then you move on and think about other things. Then an actor you really liked dies and it stays with you some bit. Brandon Lee, Robin Williams, Alan Rickman and Bill Paxton are those kind of actors. I felt like I kinda grew up with those guys as a kid. Like a death in the family sort of feeling. Hard to describe. You miss them.
Bill Paxton as Chet in WeirdScience '85 was my first intro to him... great actor!! (RIP)
Aye, i remember watching it at the Cinema when it came out, the classic "Greasy Sausage served up in a dirty ashtray" quote made us all gag and still does to this day!
I loved Bill Paxton so many times have I used the line it’s game over man in unfortunate situations and I think about him now every time I say it
Ditto.x
This guy's one of my favorite actors he crushed every one of his roles! Terminator, tombstone, aliens,the abyss,Navy seals?! Pretty much a very underrated hero or in tombstone the anti-hero from all my favorite movies. And I love how he's speaking highly of mr. Paxton!
Such a shame that Biehn didn't get a re-up in the 2000's like so many of his peers - you can argue that roles like Terminator/Aliens aren't exactly high art, but he totally inhabited those characters, and is arguably a better actor than many of those that did go on to a second round of stardom. His unhinged intensity and intelligence comes burning through as Ringo in Tombstone, the perfect foil to the quiet madness of Kilmer's Doc Holliday.
He had a serious problem with alcohol during that time and it almost killed him. Cameron also said Michael was a very talented actor from a fairly small town in Alabama, and never adapted to the Hollywood scene at all.
Mike is having trouble getting the words out. I wasn't unaware that he'd had a stroke. Explains alot. Nothing but love for ya Mike !
Michael Biehn is one of my fav actors. Loved all his movie roles. A rugged, handsome actor, he was the perfect cast both in Terminator and Aliens.
- From India with Love ❤️
Paxton and Biehn in Aliens, one of my favs of all time....
He speaks about Bill in the present tense. Love this. I miss Bill dearly.
This is my favorite IoY interview yet. Thank you Rosenbaum for letting the stories have breathing room. Michael Biehn is one of my favorite actors of all time and it means a lot to me to hear and see that he is doing so well (and looking great)!
I love Michael Biehn's work and also Bill Paxton's. Breaks my heart to hear it must be true that they f'd up Bill's heart surgery. What a loss!! 💔 Also love how Michael is such a straight-forward, no b.s. kind of guy. Absolutely loved him in Terminator and Aliens. ❤
I worked with Bill Paxton, and although I never interacted with him directly, word from the crew is that he was ''insane''. I've also worked with Michael Biehn, even had a little chat with him one time, he was very kind and very humble.
I never met Bill Paxton but his passing hit me like a Mack truck. My friends and I have been quoting his movies since seeing Weird Science on VHS. My friend named his first born son Hudson after Bill's character. True! Biehn and Paxton and Weaver were all brilliant in Aliens.
Me too, Neil.
It saddens me that Bill Paxton is no longer with us. He had so many more years and fine performances in him.
You need to bring Biehn back for the 10 minute story, it's a must! I loved the both of them so much every time they were in a film together.
Bill really is missed man. He was something else. When you watch a Bill Paxton movie, you are not the same afterwards. Seriously. So miss him. Mike did a great job with describing him. Aliens 4 ever man!!! In a Bill Paxton voice of course❤🫶
Amazing, one of my very favorite actors talking so wonderfully about another of my favorite actors. It's nice to see. I really miss Bill Paxton.
I was in the theatre in the 1980s when Aliens came out. When Bill Paxton's character was grabbed and taken away, the audience booed...and violently. Never seen that before or since. Huge statement to an actor with a minor part conveying such emotion. "Game over man, game over".
l'm a big fan of both Michael Biehn and Bill Paxton. l was watching a podcast when it was it was announced that Bill had passed away. l was so taken aback l cried on the spot. As Michael says - sadly missed ! 😢
Just watched the Terminator on the big screen last night. Well done Michael Biehn.
Paxton was great in Frailty (with Matthew McConaughey) in case anyone's looking for recommendations. Good movie too.
When I heard Bill Paxton had died, I said to myself "This can't be happening man! This ISN'T happening!"
"Game over, man!"
The thing I get the most about people remembering Bill is how Bill would go way out of his way to be good to others. He had this sharp sense of humor but underneath that there was a truly legit good guy.
From the bit part in Terminator to Aliens, the often-forgotten role as Chett in Weird Science, Near Dark, Predator 2, the cameo in True Romance, and all the other parts, Paxton was always entertaining in whatever he did.
What character to Bill play in True Romance?
@@garyhall2770 He's probably thinking of Bill's TOMBSTONE co-star Val Kilmer, who played Elvis. A great small Paxton role I haven't seen anybody mention yet is the wisecracking bartender in Walter Hill's wildly entertaining STREETS OF FIRE. For bigger ones, you don't get much better than the 1992 two-piece knockout of ONE FALSE MOVE and TRESPASS (the latter another Hill.)
He rocked Near Dark,
When you are missed and loved you’re not gone…..
RIP Bill……
❤❤❤
I got his pic and autograph at an autograph signing event in Dallas at the Hyatt inside the dfw airport about 10-12 years ago. He seemed more humble back then . He was very nice.
I remember that Michael Biehn said that Bill Paxton was unsure as to how Pvt. Hudson was going to looked at because he felt that Hudson was annoying or that his performance would be ill received because people would think he was annoying.
This made Bill Paxton sad, and basically both James Cameron and Michael told him that Hudson was the audience, he was the hysterical emotion of the audience that expressed the fears and thoughts onscreen. That was what basically calmed Bill and he continued his great performance on ALIENS. This was the to me a parallel on how Veronica Cartwright felt of Lambert in ALIEN as well, because Lambert was similar to Hudson on basically channeling the audience's feelings and thoughts.
All of the characters in ALIENS, as like in ALIEN, they are eternally iconic. Bill Paxton to me will always be Pvt. Hudson and Jerry "The lone Ranger" in PREDATOR 2, and Michael Biehn will always be Corporal Dwayne Hicks.
We must enjoy life and try not to hurt people because life is as Michael said, and there will be a time all will unexpectedly end, and it will be like in Pvt. Hudson's iconic phrase "Game over man, Game over"
Holy crap, i didn't know that at all.
Everytime I have defended Pvt Hudson to people, when they thought he was annoying and such, I literally have said to people that he is the audience. his character is the audience that goes through the emotions. From badass marines another walk in the park bug hunt mission to scared, unsure and almost paranoid when they get their asses kicked and then Hudson gets it back when he is given small tasks and he starts to reign it in when they have their objective to get the spare drop ship from the sulaco and then of course, he becomes heroic in the gunfight in the control centre "he's over there, get em!" until...he's taken.
That story about paxton being sad about that, that's crazy, cool, but co-incidental to how I explain to people that HIS character is US, the audience.
@@thejanusproject32 Exactly, but I mean, look at it on the realistic perspective, Marines that are used to kill people in wars and the such, all of the sudden seeing and fighting alien creatures that to them the marines weapons mean nothing. That killing one is nothing and the creatures ARE their own weapons, and being caught by then is certainly worse than death. No matter how tough a marine is, that would affect anyone psychologically and emotionally, because it would bring them down from the Militaristic conditioning that "They can beat anything or anyone" because of their training and weapons.
The fear of ALIEN that is shown a bit in ALIENS is that from the dark void of space, there are things that see human's technology and warlike ways and aren't phased by it, humans are just food or incubators for them, and as such, sure, determination is a strong force to survive for humans, but luck is a gigantic factor.
Hudson evoked his limits and anyone whom would be in the same situation. I mean how do people feel when fighting a lion, a bear or a Shark in the night in the ocean? That is Hudson, that is the audience and that is what made Bill Paxton's and Veronica Cartright's roles so good in both ALIEN and ALIENS.
My cousin works in the film industry and was fortunate enough to work on the set of the TV series Training Day with Bill Paxton. He said, because Bill started as a Set Dresser, he'd always compliment how great the set looked. Bill was very personable and would talk to the crew and learn their names. My cousin isn't a star struck person but he was quite impressed by how down to earth Bill was. RIP
I don't think I will ever get over my favourite actors, like all people, I guess, getting old and going away at some point, as it were. And then I look at myself in the mirror and I'm like, well, I'm getting wrinkled and grizzled and maybe a bit saggy myself. And that's just age. Except, in my head I am still somewhere 10 to 15 years younger than what I am seeing in that mirror. I remember seeing Biehn in a movie with Wesley Snipes in 2000. I just love that movie "The Art of War", I love it to pieces. I know it's not a "good" movie by any standards, but I love it and it has my favourite movie ending, probably of all time.
He was one of my favorite actors. He was in so many great movies.
I remember him as the dad in frailty. Frailty had my all time favorite surprise ending.
great acting in that one!!!
@@lilpoohbear653 He directed it as well.
A truly versatile Actor & I miss him dearly. Besides the well known over the top funny characters let's not forget he was great with drama in such movies as "One false move", "Frailty", "A simple plan", "Tombstone" and "Apollo 13" to name a few.
Michael made this podcast stay in my top 3 man he's so cool he doesn't even think he's cool
Paxton always struck me as a dude everyone liked
Interesting source to hear this from... not just because they were friends from way back and worked together often... they have something in common. Everyone I've heard to work with either of them, Biehn or Paxton, really likes working with them. Actors like that should get more work. Not only are they good at the craft, but everyone has a better time just because they are on set. Good work, no ego trips, and good times. That sounds like a great acting resume to me.
Miss Bill Paxton. Rest in power.
Love micheal biehn and do miss Bill they starred in so many great films together
Such an awesome description of a human that loved another… just well said and eloquently put. Love this man
Back in high school, a friend was going to drive home after drinking. We tried to talk him out of it. We threatened to take his keys away, but didn't follow through. He wasn't wearing a seatbelt and rolled his Jeep. The rollbar decapitated him. Not one person who was at that party didn't blame themselves. We all felt like we could have done more. I know it took me some time to get over it.
I loved Bill Paxton. "Why don't you just put her in charge, man"😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 his unravelling cracked me up so bad. Never seen anything like it had me hooked ever since.
Bill Paxton had that little Cameo in Comando as young naval radar guy. Great actor and i love watching him in Aliens.
I have never heard Michael Biehn in an interview before. Right when he started talking my brain started firing Aliens and Terminator memories. Such a recognizable voice.
So sad he's gone, he would have been such a funny and interesting guest to have on any podcast with his experiences
Rip BILL. Both him and Michael are my childhood heros
Both Biehn and Paxton are two of may favorite actors. I started digging these two watching Aliens, which I’ve seen 20 times or more.. R.I.P. Paxton.
I really miss him. Great man!
What an incredible actor... Sorely missed 👑💯.. Rest in Power Bill Paxton 👑💯
Fantastic actor and from wot I have heard he was a amazing person his caliber of acting will be missed rip bill ❤
Both my favorite actors 💎💎
I first remember Bill as Chet from "Weird Science." The guy had enormous range and on screen charisma.
He was great as Chet in Weird Science ! He will always be remembered for the line " Game over man, game over ! "
Thank you for bringing the real human stories to light in these interviews. everyone forgets in the celebrity arena, these are people, basic, human and real - jut the same. Thank you so much. Your channel and its content s so awesome
Through odd circumstance, I am not an actor in that sense, community theatre and in school, I met Paxton in an acting class, got to work with him twice on scenes. He was so generous and understood the work.
Paxton adhered to a 'protocol' I learned at that school, one most important. Listen. Be in the conversation and not off with your own lines. Listen and react. The text will come but intention is from reaction.
It has been a valued discipline in my entire life...
"YOU'RE STEWED BUTTWAD" BIll Paxton in Weird Science absolutely killed me as Older Brother Chet, I'm pretty sure that was the 1st time I had seen Bill In a Movie but then to see him In Aliens "Game over man Game Over" I just had a feeling he was going to be pretty big one day , It was tough to hear that he passed after a surgery, that was fairly routine . The good thing is that we have his performances on DVD etc and watching those makes it feel like he's still here that's one of the great things about Movies !
Absolutely loved Paxton's character in Aliens to know that he was similar to that in real life is awesome.
Born in the 70's, came of age in the 80's...
Bill & Michael will forever and foremost be Pvt. Hudson and Corporal Hicks to me.
