Julian. I like two of his songs. Not a fan of what i’ve heard of Sean’s music.

 

Rhapsody or Symphony?

I guess it would depend on which rhapsody and which symphony… Someone else answer the question please…

Brainwashed. My favorite song is the lead-off track, Any Road.

Choose:

Simple, steady, drum fills, or extravagant, complicated, fast drum solos?

By hook or by crook, I'll be last in this book.

Fills and solos are not the same thing

 

I pick solos since they’re not as common

 

Treble or Bass?

Treble.

Being slowly eaten alive by old people who have very few teeth, or being skinned alive and thrown into a big pot of salt water?

The latter: I’d rather be made into a nice soup that can be eaten by EVERYONE, no matter how old they are or how many teeth they have.

“Ass” or “arse”?

Simple, steady, drum fills; the art of simplicity that very few drummers achieve (they all think they’re prima donnas of the drums; and endless drum solos are boring and actually interrupt the song)

Bum (Brazilian girl wearing a “filho dental” –“floss”)

I’m surprised you aren’t a Ringo fan then!

It depends I like listening to both, but I think I’ll go with improvised in the style of Clapton.

Penny Lane or Strawberry Fields Forever ?

If I spoke prose you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

2 inches small. Nobody will ask you to reach stuff on the top shelf.

Choosing between two things or choosing among three things?

I actually like Ringo as a drummer. I just asked the reasons why Best was fired. No problem with Ringo’s drumming.

Choosing between three things –or more. That’s why I’m not a Christian: I would have to choose between God and the Devil (two options); being a Pagan (well, kind of) gives me many more options, more deities to worship.

 

Johann Sebastian Bach’s Bwv1067 Orchestral Suite – 07 – Badinerie or Franz Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody #2. And please guys listen to them; they are pure joy, sublime masterpieces.

Yay, two pieces I know! :) (Actually both of those are pretty familiar.) The Bach is a little cutie-flutey thing, quite nice. But the Lizst is permanently imprinted onto my memory banks, thanks to all the cartoons I used to watch that incorporated huge chunks of that composition for the soundtrack. (I can think of at least four! Plus a few commercials.) I choose that one.

Darth Vader or Dracula? (Who rocked the black cape better?)

Well, if you see Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992, Francis Ford Coppola) @vonbontee, you will see that both of them are fallen angels, tortured souls. I sympathize with them both. But Dracula is more frightening, so that would be my call.

 

Macbeth or Hamlet?

@meanmistermustard and I were posting at the same time. Please answer to both questions:

Salt or pepper?

Macbeth or Hamlet?

Macbeth ’cause it’s funnier.

(And to mmm, pepper because I have high blood pressure and never put salt on anything.)

Winning a million dollars or winning $999,000?
