Now THAT would be cool.Thats another thing I want at my funeral, along with that custom hearst with hydraulic shocks and custom paint job up in Espanola, I want Mike and Rich "Expert Knob Twiddlers" to be playing, maybe throw in some Perry and Kingsley, as the funeral procession goes bouncing down the road. Oh and I gotta be buried with some good records, as I dont know if they have good music in the afterlife... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Entirely incidentally, a friend of mine has had his funeral song written for quite some time. It's a nice boppy guitar ditty (no vocals) with a stock scale-dropping showtune-style repeat clause. It's one of the happiest little pieces of music I've ever heard (although I might just think that because he's got a big grin on his face every time he plays it). He's given instructions that we don't stop playing the song until the last person leaves the funeral, no matter how long it takes. I've always had a lot of affection for that idea. Cheers, M. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

i've decided that i'll have a mix set playing at my funeral. as of yet, i haven't compiled it, nor am i sure quite what will be on it, but certainly it will range far and wide as an appropriate retrospective on my musical appreciations. of course, this compilation will likely change over the years up until my demise as to be as accurate as possible. seems to me it's the good idea. :mz // anonbox · http://posthoc.org/ | http://ecesis.org/ 'if there were two of you, which one would win?' --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
