/                  the drummer sets up the tempo,
   the bass player feels the rhythm...
and then the guitar breaks away
from both...
       subsequently allowing vocals...

been watching old enough
featuring ricky skaggs and ashley
monroe
video
   over and over again like
         some a.d.h.d. autistic kid...

it's called honing "device" when it
comes to such matters of
repeated observation...

tell me i'm wrong...
     drums are not rhythm,
drums are tempo...
    bass, bass!
   that's the rhythm...
the subtleties: which is pretty much
everything...

   and the bands that do not respect
the bass player?
    **** it, out the window!
the solo guitar ******* can "be" on
its own...
     but the bass?

           that's why they also call it
a     base.
                                                 savvy?
bass guitar is summa summarum
of the modern band...
                   sure, i like classical music:
but there's simply too much
"blowin' in the wind" types of scenarios...
hardly any tempo setting;
violins are air,
                   brass is air...
     it's not even like violins
could be akin to scratching chalk
on a wet blackboard in a classroom...

  or whatever encompasses that
shrieking sound that encompasses
the shivers...

     which comes down to
the synch. establishment prior to
the song being recorded...

                              the "voice-overs"...
just prior to everyone being on
the plateau of composition...

                        prior to? amateurs like
on a child's playground with the swings...
***** imagery, subtle,
with the: make it girl, (yeah, ride than pony's
worth of a tongue)....
    
   *** note: twang
    (can you actually encode vibration
into this system? sure as **** you can write
⠃⠇⠊ ⠝ ⠙     into the whole affair)...

but trill, isn't exactly vibration,
resonance...

   oh... i guess unless you posit
              reverberations... akin to horace.

point being: you can't even interpret
the "modern" orchestra,
   as you can't really do much more
in orchestrating the marching band,
the pomp & circumstance
of: on the show, without a shy,
aspect of possessing
      a dolce & gabbana
faction of the military...

    some even call them: *****-whips...
because... they're not?
so well attired? looking splendid
in the sunshine on a second tier
of hollywood's state of acting?

                   *****-whips!
           as 'ard as a lump of 'ard.

p.s.
