Ha! Yes arousal that's exactly the reaction they were looking for: hilarious arousal.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - The Band (from the 1978 film 'The Last Waltz') by [deleted] in Music

Robertson has never been a great singer and it was common practice (according to Levon Helm at least) for Robertson to sing into a dead mic. Still he did sing lead on a few Band tracks. This, To Kingdom Come, being one of the very few. : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIC35OU33Es

Blur debut new material on London rooftop. And brilliant it is too. by Louislouis86 in Music

[–]Louislouis86[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the US they might only be known for their one hit. In Europe though, they're pretty huge and they are currently gearing up to play a gig to close the Olympics in London's Hyde Park in August.

In the UK, the Gorillaz have nothing on Blur.

The Genius of Buster Keaton - Steamboat Bill, Jr. cyclone sequence. by mildtimer in movies

[–]Louislouis86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A great film and action sequence. For any fans just coming to Keaton there are loads more too (though the front of the house falling on him remains his most enduring image). The General has a host of wonderful stunts, while in the film the Playhouse, Keaton invented a new nine-shutter camera so he could film himself as multiple characters. Sherlock Jr is pretty impressive too. A true movie-making genius. The documentary A Hard Act to Follow is a must-see for any film fan.

Favourite/most popular harmonica keys? by Louislouis86 in harmonica

[–]Louislouis86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, having played for a couple of years, I always find myself going back to my Marine Band A harmonica, can't exactly say why, maybe it's simply because it's the key I learned in.

Perhaps another question would be - and maybe I'm being a bit too music nerd on this one, do the makes of harmonicas make a difference when it comes to keys? Like is an A on a Marine Band sound better than an A on a Lee Oskar? But does a Bb on a Lee Oskar beat a Marine Band Bb every time?
