    ...
    You can see a door to a room
    ...

     
    Where would we be without curiosity or Pandora's Box?
     
    There was a song by Peter Hammill, about ... there's a house with no door, I'm living there ... and it went on. It's weird, because I have the curiosity and I don't have the curiosity, because I found out that pushing the curiosity is not always fun or worth while. But it's weird how sometimes the colors I see on a person, tell me everything I need to know to not bother again! Except for the jokes, of course!
     
    But on the AD2's album "Dance of the Lemmings" there is a moment that is just like this. You hear someone going up three steps, and open a door, and all you hear is weirdness, and the door is slammed and the music continues. Sometimes things are just like that ... It's as if nothing happened and we ignored it all.

    As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

    I often think of 60s music as a bunch of bands wandering around inside a large building. Some were content with the room they were sitting in, whilst others moved off down dusty corridors, occasionally finding new rooms to explore. Other rooms had doors that connected to winding corridors that led to different rooms so would produce some kind of hybrid of what others were doing. The rooms were basically small and comfy.
     
    Then The Beatles arrived and, after initially settling in 1 or 2 of the basic rooms, decided to explore a dark corridor. At the end of it they found a pitch black room which echoed as they walked around it. Then one of them found a light switch and flicked it on and they found themselves standing in the middle of an enormous hangar with hundreds of doors to little rooms all around the edges. They spent the next 5 years opening doors.
     
    Eventually, of course, others found them there and now all of those rooms are occupied.
     
    When I start recording new songs and projects, I'm looking for another secret corridor. One of these days I might find my own hangar at the end of it.
     
    And, no, I'm not on drugs.

    Now, THAT wasn't supposed to happen...

    When I wander into a dark room, I'm frequently warned that I'm likely to be eaten by a grue.

    That  answered the question I didn't really want to ask.

    In Flann O' Brien's 'The Third Policemen', there is a police station with rooms so small that the officers work inside the wall cavities. There's also a policeman who has ridden a bicycle for so long that he has exchanged molecules with it, and is now partly bicycle...and vice versa.

    The FSF only has trap doors.
