14 Mar 04 - 02:48 AM (#1135961) Subject: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Red and White Rabbit Well I dont know what to say I thought the interest at the end of Whitby folk week was just curiosity but last night MCFat finally came out at Raggy's lifeboat fundraiser. What can I say one minute my ears were being blasted with 'Lion' and 'No Rum and no Pies' and the next the trusty Epiphone was cast aside like some old rag (Sorry Raggy) in favour of what............................. A BANJO! There he was happily playing away and stating how the Banjo suited his style of playing AND that it had a nice sound! Realising what he had said he asked me to promise not to tell anyone but what could I say - the man needs treatment! |

14 Mar 04 - 07:00 PM (#1136431) Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: GUEST the second red and white rabbit posting was from Jim using my name on my computer in my house- if he only played banjo in the closet it wouldnt be too bad but in public - words fail me!! That could be the reason why Liffey didnt like you too much Jim - shes got taste!! I have no doubt it will be melodeons next mind me thinks he doth protest too much about bodhrans so having been plucking this weekend he could be aiming for banging next closely followed by squeezing - I'm going to keep my whistles well away!! |

16 Mar 04 - 04:43 AM (#1137788) Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Dave Bryant If McFat just likes the playing aspect of the banjo rather than the hideous sound, perhaps he ought to think about trying a Banjola like the one that Leadfingers was playing at the Dog-Day afternoon last Sunday. It's got a 5-string banjo neck grafted onto a mandola body. It provide a solution for people who get addicted to the banjo in the same sort of way that the patch does for smokers, and virtually eliminates all harmful banjo emissions. |

31 Mar 04 - 08:02 AM (#1150870) Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Geoff the Duck When he played on the banjo, he soon hit a glitch. The audience said that they had perfect pitch. Then they picked him up, and threw him in a ditch. The banjo, it followed McDonald. Loud was the "Splat" as he landed like that. the poor "ditching" boy, McDonald. Dull was the "Thud" as he went in the mud, and the banjo it followed McDonald. A bit far fetched - the picking him up - but I'm using my poetic licence (provisional HGV)! Quack! GtD. |

21 Apr 04 - 03:16 PM (#1167147) Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Kampervan This is all getting a bit anal and has strayed far from the original motion of censure.

Probably cos it's got no back so it can sit further down on his corpulent being and hence is easier to reach than the hard-backed box used by all self respecting folk people. |
