Brass band monks on fire. On Segways.

Almanildo says...

A straight alto saxophone, an inverted sousaphone, a trombone which coils under the arm, and that cornet or whatever it is is just weird. Anyone else find the instruments stranger than the performance?

25 Random things about me... (Blog Entry by youdiejoe)

Almanildo says...

1. Like my brother Ornthoron did, I study physics.

2. I get really good grades.

3. Like my brother Haldaug, I play the jazz saxophone. As he actually studies music, I can't really compare myself to him.

4. I also play the clarinet and the piano.

5. I got much better grades in nynorsk than bokmål, even though bokmål is the language I use.

6. I've had socialist democrat leanings for most of my life (gasp!)

7. I'm being torn in a liberal direction by my brothers and a persuasive right-wing extremist friend (by Norwegian standards).

8. Hanging on videosift doesn't help.

9. While i've never really believed in any god, I didn't call myself an atheist until about a year ago.

10. Despite this I was baptized and confirmed a Lutheran Christian. Hey, it's a cultural thing!

11. I read a lot of popular science, and like to pretend I know something just because i've read a book about it.

12. At around 8 years of age, I had a philosophy discussion club with two friends.

13. My favourite philosopher is Daniel Dennett.

14. I learned programming in High School on a Casio 9850GC+ calculator. Among the programs I wrote was a drawing program and a Mandelbrot fractal generator (which used over an hour to draw a single frame!)

15. Since that i've learned real computer languages, but have never really finished a programming project.

16. Since I moved out, I've usually gone to bed two o'clock in the morning.

17. I still do not drink that much coffee...

18. I own a Flower Stick (a kind of Devil Stick for newbs). I am good enough at it to impress people who have never seen one before.
People who have seen one is another matter...

19. Despite my grass pollen allergy, I haven't taken more than about three packs of antihistamines in my life.

20. I am a slow writer. I'll be back with a few more!

I am sorry, you have elephantiasis... in your SaX!!

Crows have been used a few times as "black characters." The one that most immediately comes to mind is the jungle book. If we're talking abuot black sterotypes, tehre's also the crow dressed as the sterotypical "mammy" (think aunt jemima) and the saxophone/piano playing jazzy crows.

Sorry I missed it, but congratulations on your 250, Caca Head. (That's what we called the guy in your avatar when we were kids; face it he really looks like one. )

Channels ideas... I think looking at playlists might conjure some good ideas. Here are some channels based on some of my playlists:
- Gross or Yuck (stuff that's disgusting)
- Shock (stuff that surprises you or blows your mind)
- Piano (stuff about the saxophone)
- Mortality (stuff regarding life and death)
- TimeTravel (slow motion, time lapse, and flux capacitor style time travel)

NIN - Something I Can Never Have

His former piano teacher Rita Beglin said "Reznor always reminded me of Harry Connick, Jr." when he played.

Reznor later confessed, "I don't want to give the impression it was a miserable childhood."

At the Mercer Area Junior and Senior High Schools, Reznor learned to play the saxophone and tuba. He was a member of both the jazz and marching band. Former Mercer High School band director Dr. Hendley Hoge remembered Reznor as "very upbeat and friendly". Reznor also became involved in theater while in high school. He was voted "Best in Drama" by classmates for his roles as Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar.

Also he dropped out of college while studying computer engineering in 1983.

He was a janitor for studio owner Bart Koster, who commented that Reznor was "so focused in everything he [did]. When that guy waxed the floor, it looked great."

Reznor often travels under the assumed name "Steve Austin" from The Six Million Dollar Man.

Tank! - The Seatbelts (Cowboy Bebop Opening Theme)

mauz15 says...

I know raven already published this one but my post is a live version and is longer so I thought I'll give it a try.

From wikipedia:
Tank! is the opening song for the anime show Cowboy Bebop. The song, composed by Yoko Kanno and performed by The Seatbelts, has an extensive Alto Saxophone solo, as well as a fil part at the end. The song is a Big Band Style Jazz piece with a rhythm part that combines a bass guitar and conga drums. The beginning of the song features a voice over from the show's main character, Spike Spiegel, which alludes to a heist taking place over the duration of the song.
