            I don't get it. What does "Wave Till Hands Music Around Stops" mean?

              You see, Michael, I told you reading and understanding text is an "art". (This comment is meant as a joke, so please add the relevant icon.)

                I'm still trying to figure out the Sue Perkins reference. Must be an 'across the pond' referral.

                  Joy, this will shock and amaze you, but it happens to be true. Sue Perkins is probably Britain's best-known conductor. She can neither play nor read a note of music but this trivia seems irrelevant to her current 'fame'.

                  I kid you not.

                    She won an "X-Factor" type competition called "Maestro" in which a number of celebrities (one of them being David Soul) were given a few quick lessons in conducting and planked in front of an orchestra. Each week, somebody was eliminated and the remaining two had to conduct the first movement of Beethoven's Fifth and a comedian (can we still say comedienne?) called Sue Perkins won. One of the judges was Sir Roger Norrington.
                    It did have the effect of boosting sales of Beethoven's Fifth for some time after.

                      Thanks Michael for clearing that up. David Soul from 'Don't Give Up on us Baby' Him I know.

                        Yes, that's the guy. Wasn't he also either Starsky or Hutch?

                          He was Hutch and I believe Paul Micheal Glasier was Starsky waaaay back in the 70's, where does the time go? Did you also know that David Soul was born in the USA (to quote Bruce Springsteen) and then became a British citizen?

                            As I've had a few glasses of wine, I am going to post a mildly rude limerick. Moderators: feel free to delete.

                            There was a musican called Gager
                            Who, as the result of a wager,
                            Consented to f*rt
                            The whole oboe part
                            Of Mozart's Quartet in F major
