marcello Posted March 29, 2006 Report Posted March 29, 2006 I've seen that before Garth, it's wild, but two things come to mind: What on earth is that bass player on....I want to be that happy too! And I wonder what stories the band bus driver could tell...... Hey, now I know what makes him so happy, the dog. Quote
Ted O'Reilly Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Well, for some reason I can't get the sound to work, but that hardly matters, and is probably explained by: everything is BACKWARDS! The bass athlete is left-handed, the marimbas and vibes have the low/long bars on the right instead of the left, etc. Weird even without the music..... Quote
Ted O'Reilly Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Okay, tried to watch it again and actually read that it's a SOUNDIE!

garthsj Posted March 30, 2006 Author Report Posted March 30, 2006 (edited) Okay, tried to watch it again and actually read that it's a SOUNDIE! They were printed backwards on the film since they were projected onto a mirror then onto the back of a screen for viewing, not completely unlike today's rear-projection TVs. 'Twas an optical delulsion.... Ted, first, as I told you once before, I loved your show when I lived in Toronto, and later in the internet ... what are you up to these days? Reading the comments to this soundie was almost as interesting as the viewing of it. There is one letter from the daughter of one of the Marimba Queens providing wonderful backgound details. ... What a hoot this is ... Edited March 30, 2006 by garthsj Quote
