I bet it involves a Ukulele

I've got the opening verse sorted, just need help with the entire rest of the song! The 'muse' has 'gifted us' so far with (to the tune of The Window Cleaner natch).

And other kinds of stuff.
Some of them they turn out nice,

If you are really desperate ( ) send me verse 1 and identify the tune, and I'll give it some thought.
EDIT
Just noticed the words in your last post.

I think we are way past "really desperate"

At last! A post that makes me feel good about the fact that I can't come.Dave the bass wrote:I was thinking..... the only thing we haven't actually done yet on a Friday Night Seminar session is make our own music so.... howsabout we actually write a Tune....'our theme song' ... collectively....a combined songwriting session?Neal wrote: Steve, I hope you've let MJ know all about the Friday seminar and what's required
I've got an idea already y'see
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.

Steve, as mentioned previously, I plan to be there on the Saturday.
I'm planning to leave here nice and early and have a clear run cos all the northern grockles will be going in the opposite direction on their way to Devon and Cornwall (probably visiting Shane )

The tube manual is quite like a telephone book. The number of it perfect. It is useful to make it possible to speak with a girl. But we can't see her beautiful face from the telephone number

Are you able to bring the 300B? I really want to see and hear Bruce's AC heating nemesis in the flesh and its a long way to Umpqua, Oregon.

I can certainly bring along my DSD 'DAC' that uses an MJSR for the B+ of the Broskie BCF buffer stage.jack wrote:I want to hear an MJSR in action... as hopefully will MJ
Andrew, my 1.5watt Transcendent SE_OTL didn't fare well when I brought it to Eggborough; speakers not a good match sensitivity wise and a very large room made it run into clipping. The 300B OTL actually put out a little less power. I don't mind bringing them but I think you'll be disappointed.Andrew wrote:Fantastic news that you're able to join us, Ray.

Booked in for Saturday night at the hotel - but may pop in Friday too, as I'll be staying at my Sister's near York.
