Fallen Avocados 4

  • A piano player in a high class men's room?
  • Driving a baby grand on the streets (and waterways) of London?
Check out this video The Ad Lav Club with Dudley Moore at the keyboard, Peter Cook as the American television interviewer Hiram Pipesucker who impersonates the Duke and Duchess of Windsor (sorta), and John Lennon as the doorman.

Meanwhile, if you need to brush up on the personalities (and psychoses) of orchestra members (as seen by a conductor), read The Honest Person's Guide to the Orchestra (or try this link)

It has helpful info like:
  • Woodwind players have IQs in the low-to-mid-genius range. Nerds with coke-bottle glasses and big egos,
  • People who play the cello are simply not good looking.
  • The clarinet is, without a doubt, the easiest of all orchestral instruments to play.
