Missing Members

[aligreto]

I suppose you mean that you - when you don't listen to music - hear music in you inner ear all the same. At least this is true of me.

Good to see you again.

Thank you, my friend, and yes, that is how I feel about music. It is omnipresent; if not in detail then certainly in my heart, mind and gut.

[aligreto]

Welcome back from your sabbatical, fella ! 

Thank you very much, Olivier.
How are you doing, my friend?

[Madiel]

Listening to music is one of the few effective ways to deal with ear worms. 

[Gurn Blanston]

Pray tell, where did that come from, Gurn?

It is part of a reply to Florestan wherein I said I called you Al back there only because it was short for etc...  . I couldn't actually call you Fergus like he did because I didn't know you were called Fergus,  but out loud I freely admitted it is already taken by my favorite dog,  a braw lad of the terrier sort. Nae more than that.

Thank you very much, Olivier.
How are you doing, my friend?

All good this end, thank you! Happy "refreshed" listening to you 

[vandermolen]

Welcome back Fergus 
I shall play some John Kinsella in celebration 

[DavidW]

Pray tell, where did that come from, Gurn?

Well you can call me Betty, and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al...

[Spotted Horses]

Well you can call me Betty, and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al...

I would nominate that for "worst music video of all time."

Hello Gurn,

My original question was not phrased correctly by me, unfortunately. I was originally meaning to question where you got the name for your dog. Your answer explains the derivation. Americans might refer to this connection as Gaelic but it is probably more correctly referred to as Celtic. 

Apologies for any inadvertent confusion caused.

That video was so big back in the day!

That video was so big back in the day!

The album was a Monster.

Yes, do send him a PM and tell him that there are several members that miss his contributions and wished that he would come back. His departure was one of the oddest I've seen as there wasn't some kind of warning or he didn't alert any of us that he was leaving. One day I logged in and POOF! he was gone.

I sent him a PM yesterday. No response yet - I'll keep you all updated.....

[kyjo]

Thank you all very much for your inquiries. This has probably been the longest period in my life that I have not listened to music on a continual basis. The other interesting aspect of this abstention is that I had not refrained in any way from thinking about music. Like most people here music is an inherent part of my existence; if I am not listening to it then I am thinking about it.

A special thank you to Manabu for being my voice 

Welcome back, Fergus!

Mostly gone for a few months (good to see that hardly anyone noticed...), but I am beginning to post again, though very occasionally...

It is still one of my all time favourites. 

[aligreto]

Welcome back, Fergus!

Thank you kindly, Kyle.
