rockefeller center Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 http://www.shout.net/~jmh/articles/bonekill.html The incident has provoked a storm of controversy over whether or not American jazz should be played in German colleges. "I believe the music is to blame," said Gratzfeld band director Heinrich Sommer. "I was pressured to play that selection by school administrators. But I've always said jazz is dangerous music. Our musicians can't control themselves when they play it. They move and rock back and forth, creating chaos. If I had my way, American Dixieland would be outlawed in Germany. I've been directing bands for 30 years and I've never heard of anyone dying while playing a German march." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christiern Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 What did they expect? They were playing "When the Saints Go Marching In" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Whenever I go to hear him play, I always try to make sure 'Free For All' is in my line-of-sight at all times, just to be on the safe side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Whenever I go to hear him play, I always try to make sure 'Free For All' is in my line-of-sight at all times, just to be on the safe side. I prefer to make my victims suffer the slow, agonizing "Death Of A Thousand Clams". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
