[quote name='silddx' post='1095338' date='Jan 19 2011, 04:29 PM'] HAHAHAHA! I hadn't seen the vids until ten minutes ago. This is my favourite so far. Sheer madness, X Factor audition quality [/quote] I think he is better than X factor audition quality. At 02.16 on the video, he reminds all the folks that got lost in the vast array of movement, key & time changes that are In the complex arrangement - where ONE is. Now not many X Factor folks can claim to know that [or even Drummers] Garry

[quote name='silddx' post='1095183' date='Jan 19 2011, 02:20 PM']The abuse has been very rare, and was really all from a single person who shared the same moniker as a leading brodcast organisation.[/quote] Well i tended to lose interest when he was involved, so would have ducked out and missed it - nothing to offer me on a Musical level.

[quote name='silddx' post='1095180' date='Jan 19 2011, 02:18 PM']Perhaps, but certainly not always. I would agree that the further up the ladder we go, the less we should shoot our gobs off. You won't hear Geddy Lee slagging anyone off. On the other hand, Scott Thunes does, but that may contribute the the fact he doesn't work much.[/quote] Have you not read the Pat Metheny rant over Kenny G?...Priceless Garry

[quote name='silddx' post='1095165' date='Jan 19 2011, 02:09 PM'] I sort of agree with you, but really, I think they should be able to stick up for themselves a bit better than they have. All art is open to interpretation and recieveng the attendant c[b]riticism/opinion[/b].[/quote] I agree with that.... But its when criticism/opinion turns into abuse - [all from the safety of a user name, internet connection and hiding in the bedroom] Garry

[quote name='bubinga5' post='1094743' date='Jan 19 2011, 04:03 AM']what do you think of its subject..im saying nothing..[/quote] Why start a thread and say nothing? Just curious.. One thing with the dude - he is getting a bit of exposure over at TB. Garry

[quote name='northstreet' post='1094397' date='Jan 18 2011, 08:36 PM']I've always played the bass part under the solo on the E. I've also always played the high part as G/G octave/F#/F# octave[/quote] ouch. Garry

[quote name='steve-soar' post='1094579' date='Jan 18 2011, 10:38 PM'] [/quote] Always loved that toon, and the big fat Bass sound. [and the first few video frames of that girls, erm.....] Garry

[quote name='Rich' post='1092488' date='Jan 17 2011, 01:50 PM']Yes, get the CD anyway and listen to it, a lot. Some truly wonderful music [/quote] The Dave Grusin take on it is just fantastic, some stunning arranging. Enjoy. Garry

[quote name='skej21' post='1091863' date='Jan 16 2011, 09:36 PM']the MD is stressed to bits[/quote] This is quite normal, and during rehearsals leading up to opening night, They then become suicidal. You can usually help this along by supplying some rusty razor blades. Use the time and listen to the CD and just get really familiar with the show. Good luck with the show - its a great play with some serious tunes. Garry
