Queen has probably used a flute in more than one song, in addition to other instruments (such as the ukelele, glockenspiel, etc) and a favorite band of mine, Mercury Rev, has used a bow saw for Chrissakes.<BR/>Regardless, I have always had something in my DNA that has prevented me from giving Uncle Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570327775449916376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844952291333878074.post-11883738793119001922008-05-30T05:14:00.000-07:002008-05-30T05:14:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Uncle Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570327775449916376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844952291333878074.post-28808350438927151042008-05-29T09:39:00.000-07:002008-05-29T09:39:00.000-07:00I love your passion, Phil.
