Yes, many have feeble and disordered minds. To those with more mental capacity, Bach is revelatory. One can listen to a composition by Bach hundreds of times, and learn something new each time. As Dimitri Shostakovitch said, "Not all composers believe in God, but all believe in Bach". -- Tºm Shermªn - 42.435731,-83.985007 I am a vehicular cyclist. |

We danced the night away, and some more nights, but she turned out to be stupid, as many musicians are, and eventually the mystical beauty was revealed as vapidity, and the stupid monomania irritated, and I traded her in for a girl whose mother I approved of. (Only stupid young men take out women with bitchy mothers. Like mother, like daughter.) That is often the case with artists. While you were out ****ing around she was practicing her violin and gaining in musical knowledge. It is the same with ballerinas which is why Fonteyn ended up married to a supreme jerk almost on your level. Nureyev also did not know his ass from a hole in the ground, but could you do anything remotely on the level of these artists. Of course not. You are a self admitted ****er. Hey, even that takes up a lot of time and effort I suspect. Scroll down to "People" for a laugh: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bandon%2C_County_Cork&diff=prev&ol did=165003918. Ireland was always a place that everyone wanted to flee from. Why anyone would go there to settle is a mystery for sure. If Andre Jute spent some time in Argentina as a youth, he should have stayed there. Even a disreputable Latin American nation is far superior to poor old shoddy Ireland. From Wikipedia: "Andre Jute, The noted self-publicist, vacuum tube hi-fi designer, liar, poseur, charlatan, cyclist, music collector and critic, author, economist, psychologist, soldier and advisor to statesmen worldwide has made his home in the vicinity for many years." About Bandon, also from Wikipedia: "Low brow culture has always flourished in Bandon as well evidenced by the towns many taciturn bars, tasteless public sculptures and manifold tracksuit/sports jersey-clad population. "Bating heads" (Bate: Bandonian phonetic pronunciation for the word "Beat") has ever been a popular pastime in Bandon. The visitor would be well advised to keep his / her nose clean in Bandon's bars lest many of its contemporary "nouveux-neandertals" precipitate serious aggravated assault upon their person [usually on account of trivial or imagined slights]. Such 'theatrical sounding' persons and their menace are assuredly quite real in Bandon and they account for a significant minority of the towns populous. Some of their popular mantras include "I'll bate your head" (Bate: Bandonian phonetic pronunciation for the word "Beat"); "I'll claim ya" (I will beat you in a fight) and "I'll hit ya a baux" (I will box you) to mention but a few. These misguided souls provide Bandon with it's very distinctive menacing undertone which can be felt most acutely around the town on any dry night but especially at weekends [dry because inclement weather often keeps the 'missing links' indoors]. Boy Racers too are common along with their tacky modifications to cheap cars: interior / exterior UV lights, garish alloy wheels / paint jobs and noisy exhausts are the order of the day. Accessorised by tracksuits and partners with hoopy earrings, these people are usually so burdened with car modification debts that they're only recourse is to sit in their cars and do nothing. One can only imagine what kind of thought processes occur in the impenetrable depths where the light cannot shine. Sales of such gutter press publications as "Nuts" magazine are brisk in Bandon town; popularised for their potent mix of car accessories and crass nudity. The need to appear to be tough or "hard" in Bandon is common, [if not quite all pervasive]. Littering, mindless vandalism, engaging in threatening behaviour and the throwing of detritus into the Bandon river are usually seen as the most effective ways to engender such repute among the towns general populous. To sample this culture first hand all one need do is to go to Dalys mobile fish and chip shops after pub closing time at weekends where one may observe all of the above over the course of an hour or perhaps even simultaneously. High Brow culture by comparison has traditionally been fearful of raising its head [for fear its head would be "bate off"]. None the less, recent years have seen the opening of some gourmet restaurants and cafes and no less than two art galleries. These signs might be the first tacit indications of a sea change away from the mindlessness aggression that has for so long described the towns' character. Such initiatives are making their presence felt with some trepidation. None the less, the vacuous pursuits of sports continue to predominate the towns psyche and most of the locals are still far more preoccupied with thirty people running around a field kicking a ball than anything of any cultural or intellectual significance: Do not look among the denizens of Bandon's GAA, Rugby or Golf aficionados for the artisan, the poet, the musician or artist. You will only find the culturally stunted. Local Myth has it that when the president of the GAA was once recommended to read a philosophical work of Immanuel Kants in Bandon's book shop that he was said to have asked "and what is the plot?" -- Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

In fact, considering how you foulmouth me next, I have too much gear to be a ballerina. You are not any kind of artist either, so why bother with a female violinist in an orchestra? Of course not. You are a self admitted ****er. I admit to no such thing. Read what I said -- "We danced the night away." I cannot imagine you courting anyone without having ****ing in mind. Hey, even that takes up a lot of time and effort I suspect. True, but irrelevant. So you married and lived happily ever after.

They find it tiresome and eventually irksome. I sometimes think only other guitarists listen to this kind of music. In any event, it is far removed from folk music. I liken it to jazz with its eternal meaningless meandering more than anything else. You are either plagiarizing Adorno, or you are just as ignorant as he was. |
