Music... WAAAAAY back in the day.

[MONOLITHIC]

Right now, I'm watching this thing on the History channel called "Da Vinci & The Code He Lived By", basically telling his life story with reenactments, voiceovers and whatnot... One scene, they're showing Da Vinci painting a portrait of a woman - you know - with the muse standing there posing... In order to get in the mood, he'd have music playing in the background while he was painting. And you've gotta keep in mind that waaaaay back in the 1400's, there were no boomboxes, iPods or stereo systems - they actually had musicians playing flutes and violins and whatnot... Could you imagine that, now (if nothing progressed), in order to listen to music in your home, paying musicians, singers or rappers to come to your crib and do what they do?

Depending on the group, that would probably be a good show! But, then you know you'd have to feed them, they would probably ruin your bathroom, and they would have to crash at your place for the night.

On second thought, that would be one hell of a party. :ymca:

That sounds really cool.
Musicians have to compete against each other and other companies. We have to be ninjas of big business in order to get paid.
Back then you just had to be good.
That I can handle.

I can just imagine going through the hassle of arranging an ensemble to play music for my cazy kids to dance to!! HAHAHA!!!
