Let's spread some musical misinformation

No need t' get all pie-us.



Alice Cooper was actually born "Sue" Cooper, 'cause his dad got a kick out of that old Johnny Cash song.

However, after growing up being teased, taunted and tromped — as soon as he was of age he went and had his name legally changed to "Alice".
So since A Boy Named Sue came out in July 1969, and Alice Cooper's first record "Pretties For You" came out in June 1969 then that means Alice was negative 1 month old at the release date.
Definitely the greatest record released by a negative 1 month old baby that I know of!

Leonachez Fender-Huerrto DeSilva Sanchez found he had problems fitting his whole name onto the headstocks of his instruments. For the first year of production, his full name took up the entire neck to the tuning keys. After just a few months of play, most of the lettering wore off prompting Leo to shorten his name. Full lettered intact LFHDS guitars from that first year bring 6 figures when they pop up.

Lead guitarists during the 1980's were outraged to learn that the keyboardists could play notes in their range as well. Many turned-down bassists, chewed carrots, and fired drummers were the result. In addition, spotlight stealing became so prevalent that house electricians bolted the things up high, held down by the weight of the ceiling.

These were also stolen by levering up the material, leading to the phrase "raising the roof".

You should review the earlier posts in the thread on how time travel works with multiple delays chained together, then you'll understand how Alice is releasing albums beyond the grave already... that and the fact that Mozart hasn't even been born yet.
 
If you play the Devil's Interval, a Devil's Tritone, and diabolus in musica all at the same time — they (being all the same) become the un-holy trinity and cancel each other out, but the resultant sound is the voice of Godot... he is coming isn't he?

Sorry, rules broken I know. I mustn't mix theology and theatrics, but ... such is life ... nothing to be done. We're all born mad, some remain so.

There’s man all over for you, blaming on his boots the faults of his feet.



Bend it like Beckett

Godot? Rude person. Always keeps me waiting.

When you can read the earlier post - as they have not been posted yet although they be available now. Time travel is a bitch.

The bass guitar was invented by Leo Fender during a fishing trip during which he caught one of these:

He was mistaken however, it was not a bass but a mullet.
