    Uns Mistwalker: Lyrics to Mose Allison Played Here : The joint is a dump The owner is broke At least that's what he said The p.a.'s a joke The waitpersons are snotty, the bartender's rude They want to make sure I know they forgot me But not their attitude The bellyachers played last night Everybody got sick Don't even try dancing, your feet would just stick The band signs their poster "fuck u miguel" And that's all the good part The bad part's the smell And what was your name again, oh - yeah - right - brown Your crowd just drinks water Surprised you're still around And nobody's coming, because hey man you see Advertising's expensive, hey, what guarantee But as I set up I am proud to be here Because once last November, Mose Allison played here
    Uns Mistwalker: sorry about the sound.... didn't check the version first.
    szavanna Resident: np :)
    szavanna Resident: still listening
    Uns Mistwalker: But I think the lyrics are pretty awesome.

    DR42 Resident: As a sample, not for now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VEzCv5cMWI

    Uns Mistwalker: I prefer live....when I'm there. Not always as a recording.

    szavanna Resident: Lokua Kanza was born Pascal Lokua Kanza in Bukavu in the province of Sud-Kivu, in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo. He is the eldest of eight children, with a Mongo father and a Tutsi mother from Rwanda. In 1964, the family went to live in Kinshasa in a middle class area, until the day when Pascal's father, a ship's captain, died. His mother then moved to a much poorer area of the city, and Pascal, the eldest, had to work to feed the family. He therefore went to school part time, and took odd jobs, as well as singing in churches. Lokua Kanza sings in French, Swahili, Lingala, Portuguese, and English.

    Zen Arado: Hi San :)

    szavanna Resident: Trained in the Suzuki method from the age of four,[1] Bird graduated from Lake Forest High School in 1991 and Northwestern University with a bachelor's degree in violin performance in 1996.
    szavanna Resident: reading about the Suzuki method
    Fionahildrum Resident: 's current display-name is "Fiona Hildrum".
    Uns Mistwalker: Welcome, Fiona
    szavanna Resident: The Suzuki method (Suzuki movement) is a method of teaching music conceived and executed by Japanese violinist and pedagogue Shin'ichi Suzuki (1898–1998) dating from the mid-20th century. The central belief of Suzuki, based on his language acquisition theories, is that all people are capable of learning from their environment. The essential components of his method spring from the desire to create the "right environment" for learning music. He also believed that this positive environment would also help to foster character in students.
    szavanna Resident: hi Fiona ;))
    Zen Arado: interesting music
    szavanna Resident: ty for the song this morning °͜°
    Fionahildrum Resident: Hello! Sorry I'm late, I will just slide down on a pillow and see what's going on!
    szavanna Resident: may be we can end with Fiona's song then :)
    Zen Arado: Hi Fiona
    szavanna Resident: yes nice song San ;))
    szavanna Resident: I want to make good citizens. If a child hears fine music from the day of his birth and learns to play it himself, he develops sensitivity, discipline and endurance. He gets a beautiful heart. —Shin'ichi Suzuki
    Zen Arado: I will liten to more of this
    Zen Arado: listen

    szavanna Resident: always nice to hear the violin

    Zen Arado: See I believe in a revolution, I believe it is a hell, I believe in it, take care of it daily daily on demand because... I am a blacksmith of metal and words and a sheep that pitch black too, and in this life spun short in the span of things I believe there's a bit more that we ought to be trying Cause 500 hundred years ago, when these trees were more dense, and the colors pristine, so the chaos made sense. There was no knowing of loss of a mountain, the whole mountain that I call home and these same hills roll on and on, without mention of vanish or where fools belong and these same mountains that go to peace long before the noose, and now that soon is really gone, now that too is nearly gone
    szavanna Resident: how was it :)
    szavanna Resident: oh great thanks Zenji ;))
