Subject: RE: A very moving performance says Kendall
Gotta' agree about the whistle Jacqui.....also the friggin' bagpipes. It could have been worse though......I mean if I was there in person, that would definitely be worse! AG is a nice tune but it must be to the bagpipes what "Lady of Spain" is to the accordion. How come pipers never play "My Ding-a-Ling" or "Rave On?"
Then there's the words which say:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
Sweet sound? Bagpipes? Sweet humpin' Jesus, pipes sound like someone is strangling 50 African Gray Parrots at the same time! They need to be played outdoors....atop a cliff face.......Facing the ocean........in Greenland........
Supper is ready but this has put me off my feed...................
