That, is mad!!

Who the hell could ever listen to that...well, certainly for that length of time which presumably someone intended folk to do at some point!!

Still...original I guess.

i wonder if a variation of this idea would work for a collab. everyone adds a movement to an ongoing piece or something. there'd have to be rules to keep it from sounding like a bunch of songs pasted together.

Geez, and I thought "Alice's Restaurant" was a long song!

I like the collab idea. We would have to have some kind of common threads in each section to make more cohesive ($10.00 word)

You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant....ah, the memories...smokin' a fat spleef with my friends every thanksgiving watching Alice's Restaurant laughing like the stupid stoners we were.

"Yes, I confess sheriff, I put that envelope under that big pile of trash"

"We got rakes, shovels and other implements of destruction..."

Ah, what a flick...whats a song...timeless, wonderful memories of youth.

There is a radio station here, cities 97 that has played that song every year on Thanksgiving morning. I beleive this year will be their 29th year playing it. And I havent missed one play of it.

you think that's a long song.

how about...THIS:

news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/2728595.stm

(..."The first notes in the longest and slowest piece of music in history, designed to go on for 639 years, are being played on a German church organ on Wednesday."...

...from that same article:

"The performance follows a legal case in which composer Mike Batt was forced to pay a six-figure sum to Cage's publishers, who accused him of plagiarising a silent piece of music."


Bwahahahahahaha!!! I know what piece of music they're talking about. So, that means that all of us are ripping off Cage anytime we're NOT playing music?

YES i saw that too hahahahah. that was the song where the guy would walk onto the stage, sit down at the piano, and the "music" was supposed to be the people coughing and whispering in the hall, right? then the guy would get up and leave.
