I’m thinking Azaria might face some difficulties on the following day when he went home to his current wife. Azaria and Hunt divorced eighteen years ago and Azaria married Katie Wright eleven years ago.
I wasn’t slagging. Garcia would probably readily agree. I was talking about musical and performing skill, not about preference or about one style being better or worse than another.
Well, since there are no recordings of Bach playing, we’ll never actually know how good he was. Unless somehow we can detect traces of musical vibration or something, on an artifact that he used, like some people claim to have done with ancient pottery, though I’m pretty sure it was debunked as bullshit. Wait, what were we talking about again?
eh…
While I agree with banging hippie chicks in principal, they generally smell bad and have way too many opinions for a male fantasy.:eek::rolleyes:
I’d rather be Jon Bonjovi. 80’s metal groupies were freshly showered and lightly IQed.
Not to mention, EVERYTHING this fucker touched turned to gold, for like two decades.
I’d like to be Maria Callas for four hours and sing Violetta in “La Traviata.” I would just once like to experience what it’s like to be able to SING.
Uh… ok…
Billy Joel.
This is his life today (unless it has changed since I read this):
He lives in a mansion on Long Island, which sits on a very large, private lot that includes a helicopter and heliport. Once a month he is helicoptered to Madison Square Garden to perform a concert, then zipped back home afterwards.
The rest of the month is, I guess, free time.
mmm
It’s kinda funny. I’ve recently rediscovered Billy Joel. His piano work and lyrics are just great.
I, though, would love to play anything like Carlos Santana can.
Because of his bands’ custom of welcoming tapers, pretty much every note Garcia played in public between 1965 and 1995 has been transcribed. Charlie Parker was a “bigger genius,” but there’s only a few hundred hours of his saxophone solos on wax.
Future generations studying the history of 20th century improvised music will definitely have Jerry on the syllabus, no matter what you think of him.
Besides, slagging on the Dead is SO 1974. Get hip and contemporary, buddy.
I want to be Bob Dylan.
Young, slim-hipped and angry? Old, gnarled, nobel-prized?
As OP I’m going to set a new rule - if someone has a long period of fame or celebrity you have to narrow it down to at least a decade.
And you can’t step out, you have to take the subsequent roughness with the smooth. So as Hank Azaria I will have to bear The Smurfs movie voice acting as my own personal cross.
Riccardo Muti, the conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. I’d love to know what it is like to look at a score and be able to interpret it.
The one person I know of who ever did anything like that was the kind who was freshly showered, but she was NOT lightly IQed by any stretch of the imagination.
And he was married to Dorothea, or at least partnered with her, for much of that time, but who are we kidding, and that likely extends to her as well.
I wish I were someone just a little more funky.
Astaire or Fosse. Dancers get the most women.
Jim Morrison. It’s better to burn out than to fade away. If I had to be a celebrity I’d want to be one that burned brightly, said some meaningful things, burned out, and is immortalized for it.
Keith Richards. He is a minimalist player, and the idea of doing so much with so little is fascinating, as is the concept of immortality.
This is a great pick, and I’m tempted to steal it. I’m going to go with Jessie Graff, because she has amazing athleticism and seems to have a great head on her shoulders. If she doesn’t count as a performer, I’ll go with Jewel, because I find her inspiring and if I had to spend time in someone else’s head, I’d probably rather be in her head than most other celebrities.
When everybody loves you, oh, son, that’s just about as funky as you can be.
