Re: Chatroom.

Live Chat is the link to the chatroom at the top of the forum pages but I just tried it and it is not working for me at the moment. It tends to be erratic and often sluggish when it does work so many of us who chat use IRC chat clients such as mIRC, IceChat or others. Firefox has a Chatzilla plug-i...

Re: Chatroom.

Any decorating changes since I was there last? Same rug covering up the hole in the floor? Moonlight, any changes to the men's room decor? All is pretty much the same.

Re: Mystery Key (at least to me)

I have an 11 key, including alternate Bb, model Nach Meyer that is my main flute and plays rather nicely. Bit heavy but well balanced and comfortable to hold. I use that bottom B more often than the trill key but the trill can be fun when improvising on jazzy blues stuff. The tone hole of the trill ...

Re: John Coltrane: Fearless Leader

Been listening to a lot of Coltrane and Dolphy lately to get into the right frame of mind for a couple of gigs where I will be playing alto and soprano sax, neither of which I have been playing much for some time now. I have loved this sort of music since I first heard it in the mid to late 1960s. H...

Re: NHS

Ah, no I had not heard.

Rather difficult to imagine a Dalek playing an organ though. I think they would be more likely to break it than Beethoven was to break a piano.
