We cool, man. We cool.
 
;-)

Well, that's debatable.  After all, Steve is English.     
 
Badum bum.  
 
 
(...and that was my imflammatory contribution for the day.   Now back to that Mike Tyson pic...)

 
 
Steve, let me assure you that I am extremely cool
 
But, rather ironically, not in the opinion of my teenage kids whenever I use the word "cool"
 
Maybe I should resort to describing things as "groovy"; now that would really embarrass them!
 
 

The first band I gigged with professionally was a jazz piano trio.  I was only about fourteen, but the piano player seemed really old to me, probably only in his forties or fifties.
 
He used to use words like "Cool", "Groovy", "Hep Cat" and "Hot" all the time.  I remember him telling me that I should not  use my name "Jonathan", but call myself "Johhny" when we were gigging, as it made me sound cool..
 
The bass player and I used to giggle about it at the time, but, looking back, he was one of the coolest people that I have ever met.  He was also one of the finest musicians with whom I have ever played, and taught me more about feel, swing and "Groove" than any other.  Because of him, I got to jam with Barney Kessel.  He was cool, dude..
 
Edited for a missing comma

I am the uncool. Sort of like the uncola. 
 
Hey we need full representation too. The cool are over represented. 

And now we've got uncool, yet very groovy English jazz piano trios.    Yeah, baby, yeah! 
 
 
Question: Do uncool, yet very groove English jazz trios use the Matrix view?  
 
Yes, I know, I should stop now.
 

Is there such a thing as a groovy English jazz trio? Can jazz be groovy? These questions and others will be answered in an upcoming episode. Stay tuned. 

 
make music people and enjoy it :)

I think the best bet here might be to just to keep some distance JB.
we just don't get along, and that's okay. some people just don't like eachother, like eachothers posts.
 
so for everyone's viewing enjoyment, just don't interact with me and I wont interact with you.
 
im not telling you what to do, im merely making a suggestion for the best interest of everyone here. 
 
thank you.

Yeah...don't know what happened here...guess it was just the way it was this week...
 
HEY!!! Get off my lawns you great jumping gallivanters!!!!!
