My Rock and Roll Fanasty, Clad in Leather Fanasty

Addria, Pasiphäe & Pysche

'Ello! How's it going? I hope you are well and having a good day!

If you're not, or you just need to come over and have some tea, I'm open to it. Let me just get my top hat and my tea chest.

*comes back with a shitload of sweets and pastries*

I think that should be enough for all of us don't you think, Steve?

Steve Howe: *shrugs* I guess? I don't know how many people are coming though.

Stevethanksforthehelp!

Steve: *sarcastically* No problem.

He's just having a bad day, because he didn't get his oatmeal with morning. He has to get up and make it himself. I'm not his housekeeper, dear.

I'm going to do a classical music tag, that Ann did, but I'm going for all genres of music not just classical.

Vaguely.

4. What do you need to work on?
Keeping my chill, sitting up straight.

For violin, I don't know.

Pulling Teeth by Cliff Burton or The Red and The Black by Iron Maiden. Or Alexander the Great on my violin would be kind of cool!

7. What instrument would you like to learn to play?
Hmm...electric organ maybe. Or the flute.

Many of my music teacher have headbanged in class, and "It needs more cowbell" as been in a practice which I thought was quite funny.

Something that you can't see, can change your life forever. And sometimes, it's not always about the sound it's about the quiet times that make it memorable.

Well, I've met all of you awesome humans. You have literally changed me. I love you all, I mean that. You're so bloody brilliant, all of you! I love you guys!

24. When do you feel happiest music wise?

Hm...when I get butterflies in my stomach everytime I play for something for a large audience. It's an amazing feeling.

25. What genre do you listen to the most?
Rock/metal.

I shall done the rest of the tag tomorrow because I have to talk about something conpletely different, right now.

I watched two amusing movies this night. One being the Lego Batman movie, for kids (my lil' 11 year old sister wanted to watch it) but I found it quite amusing myself and so did my parents. And then I watched Yellowbeard. A whole bunch of comedians (three of the Pythons, Cheech&Chong, Marty Feldman, etc.) in a hilarious pirate themed movie were Graham Chapman's character wants to kill everybody. Tis very amusing. It's low-budget to so, I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually drinking on the job.

There was also boobs in it, but you know Brits, full fontial nudity doesn't fade them like Americans. But strangely, Americans look at Da Vinci or those old statues of naked goddesses and awe over them. It's the same thing as Monty Python. Art.

*jiggle* Another reason why I don't get humans! Yeah!

Anywho, I'll see ya soon! I need some sleep. It's almost midnight. Peace and love and lots of hugs. 💚Sleepily Happy Geez💜
