If you mean Germany, then yes I went to a Monsters of Rock festival there around 20 years ago.

and for the old music the Renaissance is my preference

Bit of a mishmash really. Depending on my mood I like classical music, especially Mozart and Beethoven, but also like lots of electronic music such as Orbital. I used to like heavy rock but find most of it too heavy and aggressive nowadays.

The next person plays a musical instrument.

age may define wisdom and wisdom may define age, but youth and beauty are deeper than the look of your face.

i wrote that just now; it means that while we may assume that those older than us are wise we should not at the same time assume that a young or beautiful face is an indication of someone good, with positive energy, or that they are in-fact beautiful... beauty is only skin deep, no?

what do you think?

*****

the next person to post will share with us a rhyme or saying that they have made up or that they like... and they will tell us why.

I think beauty is skin deep, soul deep and spirit deep - that's how animals can be so beautiful. People can too - they all have some beauty somewhere: sometimes sitting in their eyes or a corner of their mind, sometimes hidden in their childhood, occasionally parading; or strewn across their face and manner in a haphazard, childlike way.

I have bucketloads. This was the last one in mind. I have put it on a metre and a half long canvas. So far it's bright orange. It just means I don't care about boys. Except, you know, platonically. Or, if I did decide to care one day then I would rather eat vomit than have someone incompatible because it's more comfortable to value self than not and consciously turn one's own perceptions to suit the purpose.

The punctuation is arbitrary and due to the nature of the writing fairly flexible.

Quote:

I would wait
seven years
for love

I would carry
a hot coal as beauty
and hearten
at its flame

I would decide
when stars cross
I will focus:
Marry, marred
By sweetness, sweetened -
Carried, crossed,
found and lost -
In path, in blood
Tattooed, embossed
(I keep sweetness
in a tight vial)..

I would Wait seven years for Love.


I don't actually think it's a very good piece of writing but the meaning held importance at the time.

****


The next person to post likes it when people do really long posts of almost any nature, because they favour descriptives and so do quite a bit of writing of their own..

Yes. It would be interesting to rest for an hour, after drinking two energy drinks. I wonder what I'd dream about?

The next person likes Cream of Mushroom soup.

I can't stand McDonald's. I've ordered a breakfast BLT there, once. The bottom of the bagel was mouldy.

The next person likes cherry Kool-aid.

I've never had any. I used to like cherry flavoured fizzy drinks though.

The next person drinks more cold tap water than any other drink.

No sorry Tallyman, I only drink cold tap water from the bathroom and that does not figure as my major source of hydration.



The next person to post likes teddy bears.
