it's quiet

Gosh, it got quiet in here for a bit. I was afraid there was something
wrong with my email again.
Happy 3-11 Day!
Any PDQ Bach fans here? I'm going to see Professor Peter Schickele at a
radio interview in about an hour. I'm so excited! I've been a fan since
the early 70's. For those who don't know him....I have NO idea how to
describe him and his music. He does parodies of classical music/opera as
well as being an accomplished serious composer.
http://www.schickele.com/ His webpage will give you an idea of his warped
sense of humor. I have a vinyl record album that has a date of 1973 for the
release. I may take it with me to get it autographed. I'm such a nerd.

You have my complete envy ... I _love_ Peter Schickele, and am
delighted to hear he's still out and about.

I hung on to my LPs of PDQ Bach long after I no longer had a turntable
.... I wonder where they've gotten to?

I'd wish you a fabulous time, but there's no need -- of course you'll
have fun!

I saw him "in concert" about 20 years ago. What fun! Thanks for bringing
back that memory.

I think we've seen him three times over a span of almost 30 years. I don't
think I'd ever get tired of his schtick.
I just dug out our library of his works....we have 5 CD's and 2 record
albums. I have to contain myself when I survey his website...there are
several more CD's out that I don't have. I'm so glad I'm not the only one
who knows him. When I remember, I try to listen to his radio show on Sunday
evenings on our Public Radio station. But unless I'm in the car, listening
to the radio just doesn't work well. Too many distractions.

Mom was a great fan of PDQ Bach. I didnt, and dont know enough about
classical music to appreciate the in jokes of music. ... hmm.. except Victor
Borge...and Professor Paradiddle.
Maybe someone here knows of the Swingle Singers?

For me, hand quilting and listening to the radio are a good combination.
If there is a program that I really want to hear -- not just have on
as background -- I pick up my hand quilting.

Ah Ha! That would be the answer IF I did any hand quilting. Hummmm I
wonder if this would be a reason to start??
I'll have to think about that. :-)

Professor Paradiddle did drum humor. The word paradiddle refers to a pattern
of drumbeats characterized by four basic beats and alternating left-handed
and right-handed strokes on the successive primary beats. Thanks to
dictionary.com for that definition. He used the drum behind his monologue to
illustrate the story, and had I been a bit older it may have seemed
funnier.. but one line we kids all liked was: he was cold to me, but hot
tamale.
