Instrumental Incidentals
This rhyme is true, from me to you, to hopefully explain;
Some music facts I didnt know, by chance to entertain.
This drummer was left-handed, but played right-handed drums.
As far as I know Ringo Starr was the only one!
When Chevy Chase left college; the remainder of his band;
Reorganized themselves and changed their name to Steely Dan.
Van Halen played the drums at first. His brother played them better;
So they traded instruments; His guitar earned fan letters!
A piano of aluminum, weighed just 300 pounds;
And last played in the Hindenburg the night that she went down.
The drum in the invasion scene of Independence Day;
Spells out DIE in morse code; and wasn’t planned that way!
He ran into a burning house and his guitar was saved;
Guess singer Willie Nelson really loved his Taylor-made!
He sang and often played guitar with Jimi Hendrixs band.
But when he changed to acting, Joe Peci was just grand!
You cannot take it with you, they all assured this star.
But Bob Marley was buried with his red Gibson guitar.
Although he strummed with Aerosmith, and Marilyn Manson too;
I’m happy Johnny Depp became an actor, arent you?
The wooden flute of bamboo root used in the Kill Bill scene;
Was all hand-made and also played by David Carradine.
Wallace Hartlaps violin sold for a million cash.
He stayed behind to lead the band the night Titanic crashed.
By lowering his piano, and sitting on the floor;
Vibrations helped Beethoven write when he could hear no more.
George Washington, James Madison, and da Vinci too;
Were each accomplished flutists. I didn’t know, did you?
Music calls us one and all. And heres her invitation,
Come play, sing, hum, dance or drum; and join the celebration!
Share with us the language of your souls imagination.
