Practical MIDI

2002 was a good year for me in a lot of ways. That year I left a job that I wasn't really crazy about, I bought a new guitar, I split off from my duo to do a solo act and Cybermidi began operation on the web. Now, these last three events were linked together quite well. My solo act required quality MIDI files and Cybermidi fit that bill perfectly. SO, just to be silly for a moment, let's imagine all the tunes Flash could sequence, if he had a mind to do so, and tie them in with anniversaries. How about...

Happy Anniversary................Little River Band
Anniversary Waltz.................Guy Lombardo
Darling Happy Anniversary....Slim Whitman
Anniversary Song.................Al Jolson
Anniversary Song.................Roy Rogers & Dale Evans
Anniversary Song.................Ion Ivanovici (Russian composer)

It's obvious that the only real choice for Cybermidi would be the Little River Band version. I can't imagine showing up at a play date and performing ANYTHING by Roy Rogers and Dale Evans and be able to do it with a straight face.

At any rate, I just wanted to say Happy Anniversary to Flash and here's a toast to another seven successful years.
