Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: GUEST,Wesley S Date: 11 May 03 - 02:56 PM You may be a musician if you get the same lust in your heart going into Mandolin Brothers or Gruhns that other men get going into a topless bar. |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 11 May 03 - 01:32 PM I have a hard time imagining you having a 'normal' conversation, Clinton... ;^) Yes, the vile and disgusting truth is out... Sometimes I'd rather play than chew... ...and my new strings are a day old... I wonder who will be at the session today?;^) ttr |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Clinton Hammond Date: 11 May 03 - 01:03 PM Stealing food? Are we musicians or are we bums? ( I know... in some circles they're one and the same... ) " ...you take a bite of dinner, pick up an instrument, and fifteen minutes later, your 'bite' is still in your mouth..."??? That's just gross... A couple of my musician chums and I were remarking over pints the other night, that we're the only people we know, outside of characters in musicals, who actually break into song in normal conversation... |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Rick Fielding Date: 11 May 03 - 11:54 AM You're in a good mood Greg, and a funny one too. Stealing (liberating) food is an all too common occurrence among musicians......highly unprofessional, but some (like yours truly) who have more than a bit of larceny in them can turn it into an art occasionally. I mentioned this before on the cat, but filling my whole case up with lobsters seemed like a good idea at the time. When I got home I realized that even the biggest pig could only eat a couple....and I couldn't re-freeze the other forty. Chucked 'em sadly. Twenty five years later the cats still LOVE sniffing that case! Rick |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Mr Red Date: 11 May 03 - 10:25 AM Bsondahl I think you'll find that the Queensland (and original) version of 'Matilda is a waltz - but then what would a drummer know? Apart from what he reads in threads on the subject. |

Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: alanabit Date: 11 May 03 - 04:16 AM You hear a pretty girl singing in the shower and you put you ear to the keyhole. |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 11 May 03 - 02:14 AM ...you look forward to that new set of strings measurably more than your next sexual encounter... ...you take a bite of dinner, pick up an instrument, and fifteen minutes later, your 'bite' is still in your mouth... ...you bound out of bed at four in the morning to try a tune you remembered in a dream... ...doorbell intervals, and car horn chords are interesting, and fun to harmonize with... ...the backing beeper on the construction trucks inspires a counterpoint melody... ...all the knives in the house are kept as dull as possible... ...you write songs about writing songs about about your exlover's lack of musical appreciation... ...you actually like the sound of bagpipes... ;^) ttr |

Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Rapparee Date: 10 May 03 - 11:48 PM You actually LISTEN to the music. You can identify both songs and music from the middle of various pieces. Singing in church, you realize how many hymns actually have more secular roots. |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 10 May 03 - 10:29 PM You notice and react to the music in restaurants, shops, etc. |
Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Rick Fielding Date: 10 May 03 - 10:12 PM You can (with a little experience) justify the 40th(!!) instrument to get into the basement! Rick |

Subject: RE: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 10 May 03 - 09:40 PM You've ever bought a guitar as a present for your spouse even though he or she has about as much talent as a milkshake. To keep from having to retune your guitar, you have different guitars for DADGAD tuning and Open D tuning (DADF#AD). By the way, rationally explaining the third guitar to the spouse is no problem. It's the tenth one that's tough. Fortunately, by the fifteenth one they will usually have just resigned themselves to their lot in life and won't even ask. Bruce |

Subject: BS: You may be a musician if... From: Bsondahl Date: 10 May 03 - 08:14 PM This might be an oft invented thread, but I reinvented these for my Musician's Anonymous page, which you can find at http://sondahl.com You may be a musician if... The callouses on your fingers are thick enough to handle hot dishes from the oven without a hot pad... You tell your spouse you're going out to spend the evening playing music with some friends, and then actually do it. You have too many instruments to carry all at once. You can "rationally" explain to your spouse why you needed that third guitar. It bothers you that "Waltzing Mathilda" isn't a waltz. Feel free to add your own qualifiers... Brad Sondahl |
