[net.social] Music to play to noisy neighbors with hangovers

jj@alice.UUCP (07/09/86)

Well, people so far have mentioned:

1812 (perhaps one of the more sonorous loud pieces of music in existance)
Tocatta and Fugue in Dm
Various other organ pieces.

People haven't mentioned:
Bagpipe music in general
Chieftans music
Leo Rowsome Piping (good pipe music)
Gagaku
etc..


I happen to think that noisy neighbors who have hangovers the next
morning should have to listen to three different versions
of "Scotland the Brave", "Scots what hae'", and "Heighland Harry"
followed by a half hour of Chieftans music turned up LOUD.
(Don't get me wrong, I LIKE that music.  It's just that most people
who have hangovers can't take it...)

Once upon a time, I invited the rest of the apartment neighbors to the
local diner for breakfast.   As I left, I turned on the tape 
and turned up the volume AND LOCKED THE DOOR, since the hung-overs
probably didn't have much sense of property, either.  

I must admit that I should have, at the end of the tape, included the
Paul Simon piece "One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor"
just to make sure the lesson was understood.  I didn't think of it
the time.
