Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

"Knowing" what the notes were and playing them were two very different things. I[stunk]on piano.

Well, you figured out how to drive an automatic and a stick shift while double clutching and operating safely. Which proves that you can coordinate and play anything that you set your mind to.

Watching a player who came from UB to EB is interesting watching positions vs fingering. I'd be lost on an upright-or a fretless-having to break very old bad habits

Heh. Just the opposite deal for me. But I'm slowly coming to grips with speed bumps these days.
 
Maybe you can help me with a problem we have in the house. We hear strange sounds up in the attic from time to time. We think there's some weird sprit up there of some sort. :smug:
If you mean spirit...I'll gladly come and drink it for you if you like!.....

They call me The Exorcist....When I turn up...the spirits disappear!....:D
 
Been away at an art show (we spent too much money, but we always support artists :)).

All appendages accounted for (and all working to perfection). :woot:

Met someone yesterday, (the husband of one of the aforementioned artists); he was wearing a grey leather kilt at the show! The two of them do Celtic Cross embroidery wall hanging art. We've bought from them a number of times in the past, I guess this was the first time she let David out of his cage. :laugh: Hadn't seen her at the shows for a couple of years, so it was great to see Jane, and meet her husband, finally.

The Celtic Cross Home

Old artwork is always impressive. The embroidery is highly detailed. Graves were adorned.

Ancient lace is awe inspiring. To think that people could do that sort of flawless work by hand. Then there's fabrics.
 
He!
Is!
(Still)!!
Spartacus!!

There is a pub called The Undertaker that I decline to explore. I count maybe 18 pubs in a five block radius, two kebab shops ....
 
Blues Monday redux.

In keeping with the Lennon theme of yesterday and with a Jimi Hendrix band twist. Here's Mitch Mitchell on drums, Keith Richards on bass, Eric Clapton on lead guitar, and John Lennon playing the singing fool.

Yer Blues.


Exceptional.
 
Disclaimer: no way would I post that song

It's like a bad car accident...I had to listen to it, for the first time in about 50 years. It reminded me of the "Wake Up Little Susie" rhythm guitar hook with some Elmo slide and Robert Plant doing a very unflattering Stevie Nicks impersonation. I'll check it out again in another 50 years if I remember.
