Topic: Say sorry to Deezer
It was worth the questions to get the answers.
I wrote the piece (as most of my jottings) after playing with various bands.
My last was not written in a bad mood the opposite in fact.
To quote Bob Seger:
Out there in the spotlight your a million miles away,
Every ounce of energy you try to give away,
As the sweat pours out your bodylike the music that you play.
Turn the page
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
with the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head"
Get on the computer, empty your brain instead.

Its amazing how two countries can speak the same language and not share the same humour.
If I asked my kids the same questions it would have led to a series of laughable replies and not a tirrade of horrified comments.
Having worked for an American Company in the 70's as an engineer all over Europe, I tend to regard them as "almost" European.
Sharing the same dry humour.
Maybe because we spent so long fighting each other in wars we Europeans are now able to exchange insults and comments with a sense of fun in them.
Sometimes it goes too far and we pull back and end up laughing and not shooting each other.
I am told Americans have no sense of irony, the ones I know have, but then they have crossed the pond and accepted our ways.
Hope you all accept my apology.
Cant wait to get to grips with Geronimo !
