July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
As I understand it this is the first Prompt for blogging with Andre in March, dealing with music?  1 .What Instrument does Andre Play? 2.Why? 3. And with who has he performed? As Andre knows I'm a journalist. Even my muse is grounded in reality, so it isn't easy to answer questions of this nature? However, with Andre's help I learned that he is exceptionally fond of the Kazoo. Why? Because I learned on a Bing search, that there are three rules to playing the Kazoo. 1. Put your mouth on the wide end. 2. Hum your tune. 3. Stop if you're driving someone crazy. As everyone knows ignoring the third rule is an ingrained habit in Andre's personality. Andre says you can make a kazoo out of a carrot, but it is pretty awesome if you can figure out how to make one out of a banana? Even Andre hasn't figured that out yet. Mostly because he eats the banana before he finishes making the kazoo. Who has Andre performed with? I'd guess lots of bands. For instance, Jimi Hendricks and The Red Hot Cili Peppers have used kazoos in their music. I read that in a search on Bing but, I could not verify any specific music by either band. I did find an announcement that the original Red-Hot Chili Peppers will be releasing an album on April 1, 2022, called, "Unlimited Love." The date may throw some fans. There is a possibility Andre played with the Cadets when they were playing, "Stranded in the Jungle." Surely, Andre was playing with "Lucid Dreams" at the Grand Opening of the bar. In any event I learned a lot about the kazoo. Andre has picked an exceptional instrument to play because, there are not a lot of people playing the kazoo professionally. It's one way to become well known in the musical world. apondia#1781748 |
