In other news, after Brexit, the playing of folk music from other European countries for fun will be banned, but it is not anticipated anyone will notice. It will still be allowed at world music festivals, as there such folk music is just used to demonstrate how primitive other European countries are, and noone is there to enjoy themselves anyway, just marvel at how other nations must be very sorry they aren't all British, as their music is so terrible compared to traditional British sea shanties and morris dancing.

Of course morris dancing isn't actually ancient, and was invented in the 1930s as a form of therapy to calm people down after having to fix their Morris Commercial vans again. The blackened faces of some dancers represents the oil people would get on them.
Of course, post Brexit, only English language music will be allowed to be played in Britain.
It was used in a Goons episode, and thus has a protected status as Prince Charles likes the Goons and so banning the kazoo would ultimately cause a constitutional crisis in the UK, and by a knock-on effect, the end of the world. It's also why the harmonica cannot be banned as 10% of the Goons shows was actually Max Geldray playing one*
* How I remember this rubbish I don't know.
No change then. We've already made most of Europe sing its pop music in English. We just need to make the USA follow suit now.
Do not stand too close to pop music. It will often explode onto the music scene.
Little known fact, the woman on the cover of that album was a dominatrix specializing in Nixon Administration officials.
At last!! Proof!!! I had a sneaking suspicion all along that you don't need a bass to get a Jaco tone...
Digitech tried to combine the entire pedal board into one pedal. They tested a prototype. That's why the lights went out in New York city.
Jaco is not his real name. He started using the name Jaco because he was tired of his nickname - Taco. He got the name from his love of Mexican food.
Research on early Kate Bush songs has revealed that they contain hidden messages, but only if you are a bat. As the back cover for Never for Ever showed, she had a thing for bats. In other news Bela Lugosi is still dead.
We have all seen those band family trees and aware of those connections, such as Dave Pegg having been in a band with Robert Plant, as well as with the father of the Campbell brothers from UB40, etc. This means if you cannot trace back to Dave Pegg in under six hops then you will never make it.
