I keep wanting to pick out my favorite bits and then I keep finding more that are my new favorite bits. Although, "Only felons may kill the oafish audience members" and "Darnelle, did you have a burrito for lunch?" are current standouts.

IT'S A MUSICAL
TRIBULATION
CHART!!!!

It's not that performing this would bring on the Apocalypse! IT IS THE APOCALYPSE!!!

I give it a 7. It's got a good beat, and you can dance to it !

"Release the penguins."

This is awesome.

In 1 they did not tell us what type of mute we were using. Are we supposed to use a straight mute, cup mute, wow wow mute, bucket mute or a felt bag! It would change the whole feel of the piece depending which we use! How am I supposed to play my trumpet if I don't know what they want.

Also where is the cow bell? I think the penguins might have taken it.

wow

Holy cricket...is that even humanly possible?!

[tigerofsanpedro.livejournal.com]

Somebody should put that in a computer program and see what it sounds like. I want an MP3 of it just out of curiosity.

[bloody-marja.livejournal.com]

Yes, I really wonder how it sounds..... but it's so f*kingly hilarious!! )) Show me that person who wrote it!!! ))) Oh oh, suffering cats...

Totally...that one was AWESOME.

And "Like (or as) the Rolling Stones"

"OK, who ate the resin?"

LMFAO!!

Re: "Release the penguins."

[hersheyjumper.livejournal.com]

Exactly!!

Thanks for reminding me of this post.

Re: "Release the penguins."

[onehoureternity.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! Which reminds me...I should do that too! *runs off to do so*

If arm falls off, reattach and play much slower.

ok this is simply hilarious. Letter J makes my head spin. imagine actually playing that. crazy!

Basically I just put the first two measures of this into finale... which wouldn't do this justice at all (especially since I don't know how to do instrumentation and scoring (That's what you get for being a vocalist) but it sounds like something that five 4 year olds would play on a piano... Except that the music was written down..

[wantingtobe.livejournal.com]

It's not even musically possible. You would have to find a way to put 4 half notes that don't overlap into one 4/4 measure, and you'd need to find a way to play them in that bar, but back in the last system and also in the next one.

I'd better start practicing right now! :D

Release the penguins! :)

actually, Ringo said he has blisters on his fingers. They played helter skelter I think 19 times before getting it the way they wanted, I believe.
