27 May 08 - 04:04 AM (#2349883) Subject: RE: BS: Nothing From: Jeanie Eric: you have answered a very important question, perhaps the most important question that anyone can ever be asked and answer. I wonder if you or anyone else on Mudcat have also been asked and answered that question ? If you have, you will know what I am talking about and you will never have forgotten that moment. If you haven't....I can't tell you what the question is. It would totally spoil the moment when you are asked it, because you now already have the answer. - jeanie |

27 May 08 - 06:41 AM (#2349977) Subject: RE: BS: Nothing From: BK Lick From Wikipedia: Artists that claimed to be influenced from or be playing the bluegrass genre were often bullied by Bill Monroe. He always considered himself the father and caretaker of bluegrass. He would often say of new bands that did not perform to his standards: "That ain't no part of nothin'." |

27 May 08 - 05:25 PM (#2350452) Subject: RE: BS: Nothing From: Bill D real all about it! and sing about it... TALKIN' NOTHIN' BLUES Well, I looked up the hall to the top of the stair, I didn't see the man who wasn't there, There was lots of nothing, nothin' at all Lots o' nothin' all over the wall, A predominance of vacancy. There was a man on the corner, he was standin' around, He was spreading some nothin' all over the ground, I heard some passin' people say, All that nothin's in the way. There ought to be a law. I went to the cupboard, the cupboard was bare, Lots of nothin', nothin' was there, I turned around and I scratched my face, So darn much nothin' all over this place, In my pocket, In my wallet, In my icebox. I figured I'd better lay in a supply, So I went to the store some nothin' to buy, In the window I saw a big display, They've got lots o' nothin' on sale today, They got pans, bars, jars, crates, Boxes with no handles, All vacuum packed. Salesman said, he said, What'll it be? Well, I'll take nothin'--nothin' for me, How do ya want it---big or small, Short & skinny--fat or tall, I'll take some with bows on it. Wrap it up nice, you know, for a gift. This song was written with nothin' in mind, Nothin' at all of any kind, Nothin' at all in any respect.. We was aided by a poverty of intellect." |
