Too much time on my hands
2002-08-10 by Rick Blechta
Hi folks, I spent an evening of beer drinking with Hoolio Smerdon recently (he did the bass clarinet and clarinet tracks for Streetly) and he told me this limerick he'd made up for Martin Beaver, the Canadian violin virtuoso. (I kid you not. That IS his name.) Anyway, it's easily changed to honour another Martin whom we all know and (some of the more gullible of us) love. So here goes... A Brit mellotronist named Martin Would begin every concert by fartin'. He'd tune up his tron Once everyone had gone, Then scream out, "Fuck you. I'm startin". I thank you. Rick, SFX 10030--no limericks on my tapes!
