Default Theremin

OK, so I watched a little bit of a documentary on Robert Moog (of Moog synthesizer fame) and had never heard of a theremin. On looking up some info on it, I came across this....

Theremin jam

When I hear "Theremin", I think of Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer".

This link is an awesome live version of this song. Theremin solo begins at about 2:15.

(I've been on a S+G kick lately. Hard to believe I never appreciated their music before. Here's "Mrs Robinson" from their famous Central Park concert. I watched this link, and suddenly wanted to learn the lyrics and sing along with them, which is precisely what I've been doing for about a month straight now, to these two songs, as well as "Sounds of Silence". I'm hoping Daliman can do the Garfunkel high notes part, and we can jam some S+G.)

Awesome.

I'm hoping to make a Vegas road trip in '08. Will keep you posted.

EDIT: The best part for you is, if you stand on a stage next to me, you look thin by comparison.

This really isn't much of a trick. A good trick would be making me look fat.

When you posted your video, you were concerned about putting on a few lbs. Glad to hear that's no longer a concern.
