I have figured out how to get that cool 'icepop' sound at the beginning of Talking Out of Turn on the keyboard, so I would like to play that and then sing backup/harmony to Jus and John. Maybe a little guitar part here or there but nothing flashy. Oh, and I'd do the jig with Norda Mullen too Just a silly joke... M

But since there were already two other pianists, on any given piece of music two of the three of us would be sent back to the percussion section to help out. So given my vast experience and expertise, I could serve as Gordy's assistant, playing whatever special sound effects he needed--cowbells, triangles, cymbals, washboards--you name it!

Posts: 28 11/01/09 06:28:38	Personally I'd LOVE to be Justin's guitar Tech.. No I don't know the first thing about guitar's but a gal can dream right? Other then that a back up singer or Justin's personal Hairdresser. LOL P.S. Oh and as a side note I'd also love to be the merchandise Gal that gets to travel with the band wherever they go. sigh Last Edited By: Qypsyqueen 11/01/09 06:30:57. Edited 1 time.

Posts: 396 11/01/09 08:22:11	Hmmm. I really had to think about this one. I don't sing except with the radio when I am alone in the car. I don't play an instrument. I have no sense of rhythm so even the tamborine is out. Remember in the '90's when they used to have that big gong between the drummers and Gordon hit it once during the show (I think at the end of Late Lament). I could do that!!!

I could do that!!! Yah for Pam! I'll ring a cow bell and you can bang the gong. We'll be such tremendous assets to the band--how could they refuse to hire us?? How have they made it this far without us?

Posts: 11 11/02/09 19:35:27	After years and years of painstaking research, I've not seen the Moodies tour with a 3rd chair clarinet player, so I'll try out for that other male harmony voice that jimnsue4ever doesn't take. lang

Posts: 212 11/11/09 15:48:43	There's only one thing I would like to do and this is revealing something about myself. Ready? One of my fantasies is that I win a contest where your wish is granted. And my wish is to sing NIWS with Justin. And, gee, I win the contest. So I am flown to London, all expenses paid, where I get to meet the band, and at first, I am so shy (which I really am) and I sort of sing on a separate microphone in a lower voice. But then, wouldn't you know it, the second mic breaks and I'm forced to use Justin's mic and we sing the song together, looking into each other's eyes the whole time and at full voice. Afterward, he invites me back to his apartment to hear some new songs he's written. And the rest, as they say, is history............ So to answer the question of the month, I'd like to sing NIWS with Justin, just once, just to fulfill my fantasy, or at least the beginning of it. Arline in Florida <--------------you should hear some of my others!!!!!

The biggest problem I'd have would be to remain calm. I'm used to performing but onlybefore small groups and doing solo classical guitar works. Playing with a band would be much harder, especially a band I think is great. Last Edited By: michaelj53 11/24/09 13:39:52. Edited 2 times.
