Musical Genius

I am not.

But I’m a decent mimic. And I have a pretty decent ear. I also don’t really dig emulation which gives one the vain attitude of only really being into doing one’s own thing.

Yeah.

One’s own thing.

The way of knowing things.

My favorite line from The Last Wave starring Gulpilil.

Dreams are a shadow, of something real.

So my buddy, Adam Clark, gets a hold of me cause he’s taken up guitar and can’t figure a chord from a tune he wanted to play. After I mocked him sufficiently for even wanting to play someone else’s tune I took a listen, and couldn’t tell him the chord.

Like I say, a musical genius I am not.

Jack of all trades, Master of Known.

    “Jack of all trades, Master of Known.”

    Well, you may not be a musical genius (although with OED’s Greatist Hits CD about to be released, you are close), but you are a comedic one.
