          That's a good one!
          It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

              Then we're clearly of the same mind, but I did not know that you'd done that at the time of posting as your post predates mine by 2 minutes maximum!

                      Paul McCartney for (dis)-services to music education by reinforcing the myth of spontaneity in pop music (and pretending that he doesn't understand notation when more or less EVERYTHING he has done has included some people playing from it )

                      Gareth Malone : for being a bad actor and trying to fool people into thinking that what is on TV is NOT a piece of theatre AND (I stumbled into this by accident the other night ! ) saying on TV that there were only three things involved in music..... the score>learning the score> and performing the score
                      and another thing he said too some disenchanted participant "It's only music" !!!! ONLY MUSIC FFS go away you pathetic little thesp music is much more important than your little media show

                      Eric Whitacre......... WHO on earth thought it was a good idea to ask him about serialism ??????


                      The only problem is that I don't think these are "trumped up"

                            A complete waste of his talents. Where is his recording of ALL the Bach Solo music for violin? Why did he abandon audiences in Scotland who gave him so much support at the very beginning of his career? Why didn't he work on his tone production? Why did he walk the Malvern Hills in the rain playing instruments loaned to him by young makers? (Yes, really!)

                            Why has he deserted his talent to become an 'entertainer' rather than an artist?

                            God only knows what his mentor and teacher, Yehudi Menuhin, would make of his antics.

                              I thought Yehudi was in Antarctica already for pretending to be a conductor ?
                              (allegedly .........)

                              I know what you mean though, Jazz is a "waste" innit (ducks behind sofa )

                                for sartorial crimes.jean yves thibaudet

                                Just for being unbelievably annoying and never making good music. Bjork. (I have tried to like her music, I really have).

                                In the music presenters category that I think we should have...
                                Sean Rafferty, for being inexcusably badly prepared to do a highly sought after job.also for world record obsequiousness.

                                But TBH, I would leave 2gongs in charge of this. He seems to have the evidence......

                                Oh , and I would support sending kennedy off, just for being SO discourteous to his audience, when I went to see him.
                                (worst case i have ever seen, and I've see Siouxsie and the Banshees ).
                                I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

                                I am not a number, I am a free man.
