Love it! The Rhapsody In Blue outro was kool. She really got into it too. I got a kick out of her crack of the bat.

British Columbia loves us more than the District of Columbia.

I thought of that when first viewing. If you can play the keys you can play an organ. But then I thought why not have her play the piano instead. Why has it always been an organ? Was that for sound purposes, before there were amazing P.A. systems? Has any organization gone with a piano?

Talking about organs, now I gotta scroll up and read about this ladies penis!
Something I never thought Id be saying in public^

Especially the timing of it -- just before the line "Knocking those home runs over the wall."

Not all good piano players are adept at organ. My wife'll tell you. Playing with your hands and feet is hard!

I imagine, yes, organs are the historical standard for public keyboarding because they project.

[RealityChuck]

Organs also give many more options. They have a vaudeville theater here with an working pipe organ; you can get just about any sound you like out of it -- trumpets, drums, clarinets, etc.

It looks like they also were easily connected to PA systems without microphones. A quick look at the history was that the first one used for a sport was installed at Chicago Arena for Black Hawks games in 1929, and the Cubs added the first baseball one to Wrigley in 1941.

[Frayed Knot]

Besides, if this gal/guy does play the organ, who knows what type of organ s/he prefers.




Yes, I went there

I'd like to point out everything right with this claim but I can't type right now, what with this tenting I have going on.

I like this one. The next one I had to stop after 15 seconds

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I like the lyrical content of that one. But musically-- the flow of the "rapper," the beat, the hook(s)-- it burns. It's as if it takes a bunch of things I like, puts them in blue-and-orange sedans, and then has them drive towards the same intersection at the same time at high speed.

The second one works better from that aspect.
