GC384QT ROCK BAND #40 - BEE GEES (Traditional Cache) in Virginia, United States created by Jtmlam59

This cache has been archived.

Jtmlam59: Rock band series is done. Tired of negative logs from fellow catchers. We have not been as active over the past 18 months due to family medical issues requiring a lot of travel out of state (father dying of cancer), moving parents into assisted living, helping dad who is on hospice care, and getting their home cleaned out and ready to sell. We have had no time to maintain caches, so I am just going to archive all of them. 😡

To other catchers who know what we have been going through and those who have enjoyed this series, we appreciate your visits and wish you the best. Cache on! 😎

Geocache Description:

I know, the Bee Gees a Rock band? I was watching a special on TV about them and Paul Stanley said "the Bee Gees are that band that nobody wants to admit they like".. We know many of you probably don't want to admit you like this band. As you are heading out to this cache, why don't get out that Ipod and "strut" over to this cache like Tony Manero to some "Staying alive" or "Nights on Broadway" because you'll be "jive talking" when you find this and it would be a "tragedy" if you don't!

Go ahead admit it, you like this band.........

Really, go ahead and admit it, you know you want to. we won't tell.....:-)

The Bee Gees are a musical group that originally comprised three brothers: Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio was successful for most of their 40-plus years of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a pop act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as a foremost act of the disco music era in the late 1970s. The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly recognisable; Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the late 1970s and 1980s. The brothers co-wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists.

Born in the Isle of Man to English parents, the Gibb brothers lived their first few years in Chorlton, Manchester, England, then moved in the late 1950s to Redcliffe, Queensland, Australia, where they began their musical careers. After achieving their first chart success in Australia with "Spicks and Specks" (their 12th single), they returned to the United Kingdom in January 1967 where producer Robert Stigwood began promoting them to a worldwide audience. It has been estimated that the Bee Gees' career record sales total more than 220 million, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997; the presenter of the award to "Britain's first family of harmony" was Brian Wilson, historical leader of the Beach Boys, a "family act" also featuring three harmonising brothers. The Bee Gees' Hall of Fame citation says "Only Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Paul McCartney have outsold the Bee Gees".

Following Maurice's sudden death in January 2003, Barry and Robin Gibb ended the group after 45 years of activity. In 2009, however, Robin announced that he and Barry had agreed that the Bee Gees would re-form and perform again.
