You notice how when you're holding two knee levers with your legs in C6th and you reach down with your hand and pull one of the levers you can't get, it gives you a chord you, seemingly, just have to have now? I need more legs.
Mike P. has a wrist lever, Dave E. ties a string to his leg, there have been "inventions" of the phallus lever, the sphincter lever, the nose lever.... this is an instrument that feeds the "greed gene", I guess. |

Maybe with a brain lever I could figure out another way to play it. And if all else fails, simplify. But even old Bach, the greatest organist of his day, couldn't always do that:

Bach was known to wood sticks in his mouth so that by leaning over the organ keyboard, and using his hands and feet, he could play as many notes as possible, creating sounds unheard before. He didn't think twelve notes played at one time on an organ was enough! |
