Oh, and of course the Mad Hatter was the part I played in our amdram panto of the Alice story. Had particular fun doing Jabberwocky in 4 different voices.

I also learned (Wikipedia) that Lewis Carroll introduced three words into the English language via that poem: chortle, galumphing, burble.

Enough burbling by me ... Merry Xmas all.

Congratulations Paul and thanks Steve for hosting.

With many thanks to Oblib and to Paul for the most welcome mentions.

Congrats paul and thanks stevea (I would have liked to see the performance!)

Well done Steve - it`s been a long mad friday! - congrats Paul
Thanks to Paul for a like and Mattrom for a potential like (agree 100% with your comment Mattrom!)

On the `Alice` theme I can`t resist sharing this link to Grace Slick singing `White Rabbit` (the vocals are isolated)...

Well done Paul and thanks Steve. I'd have liked to see the performance as well! I didn't know that about the poem.

Hatters went mad because of the mercury they used.

Great song, tyke, but I don't see why you would want to isolate the vocals. Jorma Kaukonen in particular was one of the great guitarists (I have somewhere an duo album with him and someone I've forgotten, called Hot tuna)

Google - Jack Casady

Well done, Paul, on all counts. We'll be keeping you busy next week with the double!
Thanks to Ginge and Tyke for your votes, and to Chrise, Dorrien, Paul and Oblib for the mentions.
Thanks also to Stevea for hosting. (Good decision - saved a second referendum.....)

Merry Christmas to all.

Congrats Paul well done.Thank you also Stevea for hosting,Mattrom and Ginge for the mention and Fieryjack and Spike2 for the votes.Best wishes to all. Nytram,Bilbo and Minnie.

Chrise/Rosalind - the performance was recorded! I'll be getting a copy on dvd. Pop round and you can watch it! :)

Tyke - when I'm in a show/play, there's this thing I HAVE to do: play the same song on repeat, while driving to and from it. So naturally it was White Rabbit.

And, chrise, if you like Jorma Kaukonen's playing, check out Heron Oblivion: they sound like Sandy Denny meets Jorma Kaukonen.
