Back to your post about wanting to turn the knobs!
Thanks for the info, but I was only posting that as a joke to the 'Singer who is getting discouraged' post. If you haven't read through that one yet you are in for a great laugh.
I work with a couple bands and that is about all the time I have anyway.
I modified my original post to indicate I was making a joke. I realized that if you hadn't been following AJA's discussion that I sound like a total retard!
At one point, practically every musician I knew at the time could recite most or all of the dialogue to that movie pretty much verbatim. Everything from the airspeed velocity of an African swallow, to The Knights Who Say Nee, to the rrrrrrrabbit with grrreat fangs! What is it about British comedy that's so silly and smart at the same time?---->JMS
I have never, nor will I probably ever see a scene as funny as the one in "Life of Brian" with Pontius Pilate. "Do you feel a little giggle when I say the name, Biggus Dickus"? Oh yea, welease Wodewick.
- Behold the cave of Kyre Banorg!
- Right! Keep me covered.
- What with?
- Just keep me covered.
- Too late!
- What?
- There he is!
- Where?
- There!
- What?, behind the rabbit?
- It is the rabbit!
- You silly sod! You got us all worked up!
- Well, that's no ordinary rabbit. That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on.
- You tit! I soiled my armor I was so scared!
- Look, that rabbit's got a vicious streak a mile wide, it's a killer!
- Get stuffed!
- It'll do you a trick, mate!
- Oh, yeah?
- I'm warning you!
- What's he do, nibble your bum?
- He's got huge, sharp... he can leap about... look at the bones!
Luckily, I have access to a large DVD collection at work. Guess what's going into the my player tonight?
- Run away! Run Away!
- And we'd better not risk another frontal assault, that rabbit's dynamite.
"Look at the bones!" Oh, Lordy... I forgot that line. Why does it make me laugh? Don't have a clue... it just does. To this day, when a waiter asks if I'd like anything else, I have to fight the urge to say,"F**k off, I couldn't eat another bite!" (from the restaurant scene in "The Meaning of Life"...what was the fat guy's name again, Mr. ...) "Just one thin mint?"--->JMS
