Yay - got two power points! Since I don't have permission to *promote other, more deserving videos, I'll have to do with one of my own. This is still an extremely funny clip, though.

I wish I liked jazz, I should like it, but it fucks me over nearly every time. Damnit


Believe me, it's like that sometimes for me too, and I listen to some weird-ass free jazz. But it's part of the fun

Thanks for posting this, really. I hadn't heard of Himori Uehara before and I'm off to buy everything she's ever done and send her envelopes full of my hair.

Self-fascinated wall of text time!

I write music and the more I learn and develop, the less music seems interesting, like the "magic" is slowly being eroded the more I understand composition. Classical, prog and jazz - really good jazz - are protected against that effect, and remain as amazing as they were the first time I ever heard them. Jazz is especially stimulating and fascinating, although I still love everything from Muse to King Crimson to Nobuo Uematsu to Miles Davis. Hiromi Uehara just makes me want to blow my fucking head off with 12 gauge.

Thanks, Kulpims!

It gives her magical powers. If she didn't have that hair she could only play "Twinkle, Twinkle."

Why is her hair like the wicked witch of the west?

The hair accentuates it for me. lol. I love crazy hair.>> ^Opus_Moderandi:

It's always exciting to watch someone who is so into what they're playing but, she really could use a hair brush.
