What next?

I am writing this to the sound of the karaoke version of Bat Out Of Hell blasting through the estate that I live on. Just across the road is a man with a microphone, standing right outside his front door. He is even doing the chat between songs. There are two or three people standing around looking at him. I daresay he thinks he is performing a public service; entertaining folks in these trying times. I suppose he has a half decent voice, but even if he had a completely decent voice I would still rather he wasn't there. How ridiculous do things have to get before all this is over?

He's carrying on like he was playing an arena, Merc.

I'm with you on this one. Why do we have to be subjected to all this "Free entertainment"

He's performing "The Wonder Of You" at the moment.

I wish it were you, rather than me, in a position to judge how entertaining it is, Loh.

My daughter in Paris stands out on the balcony playing the theremin - can you imagine how weird the neighbours must think that!? By the nature of the instrument she can neither sing (jazz) nor play piano accordion at the same time, but imagine a virtual trio of herself doing all three

I'm thinking people like this may be hoping to be "Discovered" without putting in all the effort in qualifying for "Britain's got talent"

I just attempted to video him, Merc, just as he was announcing he is taking a short break. I don't know who he was announcing it to, I couldn't see anybody. I'll have another go when he comes back.

That sort of thing is probably more appropriate in Paris than where I live, Fargo.

My guess is that he is a pub entertainer, Loh.

I wish I could play the theremin

I don't have any free entertainment from the neigbours here.

I'm the only one playing the piano and I wish some would join with other instruments but...I have no neighbours at the moment.

You only have to wave your hands about, Daniela. I will still sound atrocious whether you know what you're doing or not.

Daniele can you video yourself playing the piano?

Merc, the thermin is a lovely electronic musical instrument that requires no physical contact.

You just have to move your hands above it in order to produce a sound.

Merc, I wouldn't have a clue how to put the video here if I did?
I only know how to send it to friends via WhatsApp.

Or...give them a live show?

I started this blog wishing the man would go away. Now I am wishing he would come back so I can try to video him. Stange how quickly things can turn around.

Madre Mia, Merc, you're asking me the impossible

As I said, I prefer to give people a LIVE show.
