Let's spread some musical misinformation

[Jay2U]

Gene Simmons turned down an opportunity to play James Bond in the soon-to-be-released " Kiss Of The Deadly Dollar".

Now Teenage Bottlerocket frontman Ray Carlisle got the job, because they're bigger than Kiss.

New Wave was a salute to the bird, first popularized by the young Johhny Rotten.​

Doing drugs before a concert will always be safe.

Just like a six pack.

Got high on these once and missed the whole concert..

A "tea towel" is a special towel used to deaden drums. Nobody knows where it got that name, as it's only used for drums. I can't imagine how using a towel to drink tea would be a good idea.

Warning...** True Information Alert **

My youngest daughter is now older than Johnny Rotten was when that photo was taken.

I am so glad that Facebook and similar didn't exist at the time.

They are great for taking the edge off speed metal, especially if given to the band.

Those were developed for psychedelic blues, but never really made it.

Jack Teagarden (shown below) used a towel all the time between songs when performing.. It became known as the "Tea" towel.

Musicians need to have a very good understanding if the Doppler effect. The sound leaving the stage will sound lower and the sound going to the audience will sound higher. For the audience to perceive the music as in tune, the instruments must be tuned flat. As well, because the sound leaving the stage will be lower, it will sound even more out of tune to the musicians.

So just to recap here

The more out of tune the music sounds to the players on stage, the more in tune it will sound to the audience.
This is how BeBop was invented.

An approach much refined by the band Be-Bop Deluxe.

So you guys never heard of the DopplerBucker? Leo invented said pickup just after the humbucker. The DopplerBucker bends time and space to compensate for the Doppler effect.

The only way a vuvuzela can be properly tuned is with a box of matches. In an airy, open place, set fire to the bell-end. Place the burning vuvuzela upright on a polished stone, glass, or steel surface, and stand well back. While most vuvuzelas are tuned to around B♭before the firing, rest assured they will all B♭, without question, once the flames have died down.

At this point, they'll all sound uniformly excellent and will bring years of guaranteed peace and joy to a multitude of music fans, right around the globe.

String manufacturers claim strings will stay fresh in their specially designed packing material. I made a gigbag of this material, so I'll never have to change strings again.

This is anti-vuvuzela propaganda. Vuvuzelaphobia is spreading with support from the pro-bagpipe media. The majority of vuvuzela players look to peacefully make music; it is a small minority of vuvuzela activists that insist on blowing their horns in confined places amoungst non-vuvuzelists.

I strongly resemble this post.

Hey hey hey hey hey !!

Who keeps flipping the reverb/delay switch on on on on ???

 

[Shannon]

Reverb switches are a reminder, they need to be flipped off.

Just like lead guitarists.
