  I don’t know. Loved DD, and was quite good at it (as well as a few of my friends)! Sometime after 7 I believe it was, I went back to play DD with a friend, a friend I used to play the game with back in the day too. Well, I can’t remember how my friend fared, but I recall having difficulty, I think it was with timing. For one, getting off the starting line. The timing was different. I think there might have been a thing or two else different, maybe drifting but I can’t say, that really had me out of my element. I was not playing like I used to. Maybe too used to whatever modern one had been out (probably 7). Other factors could have been at play, too. Again, it’s just this one trip to the past I’m judging it on, and it doesn’t really answer your question.

  I probably played the most in Kart 64. As well, I have not had the time others have had in 8. And I did enjoy both the DS and 3DS versions, with not much time on GBA.

  Add a stretchy string to that stick, with a poofy thing or feather on the end of it, preferably with a little bell on it too, and that cat is gonna love/destroy that thing so fast!!

  I take your point. Generally it might be correct. However, Jean Claude Van Johnson was great! Comedy. If you don’t know it, you should watch it. I can’t name anything else however.

  The first song that came up for me on YT by him was Physical Education. There’s a lot of rock in there. He reminds me somewhat of a Dave Weckl or Carter Beauford even. Some of the instrument’s evolution I’m not interested in.

  Google classifies Animals as Leaders as a progressive metal band…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure that’s jazz anymore, but maybe I have more to learn. I wouldn’t go to a jazz concert with a mosh pit. The two don’t go together.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suppose I don’t know a ton. My earliest entry was that of Buddy Rich, the drummer. As a drummer, I wanted to relate. Play fast and all. Haha. Though my playing has all but ceased (the stomach drum and deck drum will always live on!), my love for his often high tempo pieces lives on. He played songs I believe others played as well. His versions were just more upbeat!

  I’ll give you an example of a group I didn’t like all that much and that was the Glen Miller Orchestra. Even as a jazz fan I can hear the style of jazz people refer to when they talk about “music to put you to sleep.”

  But BR was just the beginning. It sounds like you know more than most believe it or not. Miles is great and I think I have more to discover there even.

  The latest artist I found, new to me, also from the 50s/60s I believe, is Bill Evans, a pianist. It was a YouTube comment I came across that mentioned Evans to now be their “piano daddy” and from what I’m hearing, I’d have to agree. 😁 But, again, I only know so much. (Talk as if I know it all though…)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have not. Thank you.

  I definitely don’t know where to look these days. I believe I was previously recommended SmallsLIVE, also on YT, but admittedly haven’t spent much time there. youtube.com/@smallslive?si=b4mxAHP1xqxv7QNm

  I’ve also been listening to Avishai Cohen, a bassist, for the past many years, who has modern things and may still be active. Jazz is just not mainstream in any way anymore. And most people don’t know what it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hear you and agree with much of that. I am a fan of multiple genres as well. But, as far as it goes for jazz, jazz is dead. Anyone still attempting to play it is often a sad version of what was once great in the 50s/60s/70s. So while there’s plenty of music in other genres I like, always more to find from those time periods, as well as still enjoying the classics, it’s a little upsetting good jazz is dead, modern jazz is trash, and people who think they know jazz these days actually refer to some other genre, like rock. Somewhat sad.

  Nah, generally yes, but this particular follow up is hilarious. When ugly people made it haha
