Couldn't decide, so you get both! ?

I like your restraint. I know I couldn't have resisted making the topic title "Score!!!" ?

? Interviewer: Can you explain Jazz? Yogi: I can't, but I will. 90% of all Jazz is half improvisation. The other half is the part people play while others are playing something they never played with anyone who played that part. So if you play the wrong part, its right. If you play the right part, it might be right if you play it wrong enough. But if you play it too right, it's wrong. Interviewer: I don't understand. Yogi: Anyone who understands Jazz knows that you can't understand it. It's too complicated. That's what's so simple about it. Interviewer: Do you understand it? Yogi: No. That's why I can explain it. If I understood it, I wouldn't know anything about it. Interviewer: Are there any great Jazz players alive today? Yogi: No. All the great Jazz players alive today are dead. Except for the ones that are still alive. But so many of them are dead, that the ones that are still alive are dying to be like the ones that are dead. Interviewer: What is syncopation? Yogi: That's when the note that you should hear now happens either before or after you hear it. In Jazz, you don't hear notes when they happen because that would be some other type of music. Other types of music can be Jazz, but only if they're the same as something different from those other kinds. Interviewer: Now I really don't understand. Yogi: I haven't taught you enough for you to not understand Jazz that well.

Nice! Just add some cowbell and you've got yourself a hit! ?

Hold on, you're getting close to the edge! I suggest you awaken, leave it and release, release while embracing perpetual change. That's my mood for a day, hey, it can happen! Your move! ?

A common ailment among sheep people today. ?

I had a girlfriend like that. Once, when I saw a particularly nice guitar, I got it for her. Best trade I'd made in years! ?

Well, I can still afford it, even while being out of work! That counts. ?

I find Italian sign language the easiest. *Hmm... Maybe he meant signposts?* ? If so, here's two of my favorites that were in the now-missing thread! ?

Yep! During the Del Mar Fair in San Diego. Held at the Del Mar horse racing track which, I believe, is on Jimmy Durante Blvd (he used to live in Del Mar, where the "Turf meets the surf!"). I was so far up in the stands that I could only see his nose though... ?

Well, I'm beginning to believe that some of you don't know Jack (or Jaco!). I prefer the real Deal. ?

I seem to be missing several posts from today. I'm taking that as a sign... ?

This thread now goes to a Levin! ?

So would Bapu! (See what I did there? ? )

American Idiot > Well, you know... ?

I believe the English would say that was a bloody sh!te thing to do! ?

Good thing he wasn't trying to play this then!

But it has Lemmy-hemi-demi-semi-quavers in it!!! ?

Ow! That's gonna Sting!

Well, which version do you prefer? Personally, I like the second one best.

Saw him when I was young I did! ?

I'm still using Notepad. 30 years and I'm still adding 1's and 0's for my first song...

*Wonders if fleas are being ignored...* ?

Does farting Jingle Bells really count though? ?
