Members Ernest Buckley Posted December 18, 2015 Members Share Posted December 18, 2015 So I had surgery this morning for a molar implant… I get to the office and after filling out the (scary) disclosure and signing it, the male nurse asks me what time of music I would listen to. I first tell him Rush but then I say, "Lets listen to Beethoven, it was his birthday yesterday." The nurse says, "Really? No one ever wants Beethoven." Kind of sad… Anyway, about 3 minutes into the implant… the dentist says, "Who wanted this music?" The nurse responds, "Mr. Buckley". "Interesting choice Mr. Buckley. Usually everyone wants Kanye West or some other hip hop." the doctor remarks. Then for the next 2 minutes the doctor and two nurses start this conversation about how Beethoven. I couldn`t talk with them but I started to think… if people actually listened to this stuff (meaning classical music… Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms, etc… ) they would probably like it a lot. Anyway, I did my duty for the day. Gotta spread the good news of good music. EB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mark L Posted December 18, 2015 Members Share Posted December 18, 2015 When I got married I chose the adagio from Mozart's clarinet concerto as the accompaniment The registrar was quite shocked and pleasantly surprised. She said people usually chose The Power of Love by Jennifer Rush, or some other such syrupy nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMS Author MikeRivers Posted December 18, 2015 CMS Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 I had cataract surgery a couple of weeks ago. They didn't ask me what kind of music I'd like to hear, and they didn't play any. I probably would have asked for the Dave Grisman Quintet and they would have said "How about Adele?" Oh, and forum-related: I used to be able to take off my glasses and get an IC up really close to my eye to read the part number. Now I need a magnifying glass, and one pair of glasses to read the newspaper, another to read a book or magazine in bed or on the dining room table, another to do general things around the house, and sunglasses to drive or take a walk during the day.

Members Folder Posted December 19, 2015 Members Share Posted December 19, 2015 I had dental surgery two weeks ago and they asked if I wanted John Mayer, Coldplay or Nickelback. I said anything except Nickelback will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMS Author MikeRivers Posted December 19, 2015 CMS Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 I'd rather have dental surgury than listen to Coldplay or Nickelback. I suppose I could take John Mayer if I was having a small cist removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blue2blue Posted December 19, 2015 Members Share Posted December 19, 2015 I'd rather have dental surgury than listen to Coldplay or Nickelback. I suppose I could take John Mayer if I was having a small cist removed. LOL! You and me both on the former. (I probably need a little, anyhow, probably a good tradeoff. I wonder if I could work out a deal with a dentist: If you promise to not play Coldplay or Nickelback, you can take out that for free. Today only, doc, better get it while you can.) On the John Mayer, his guitar playing is proficient enough but he can't seem to open his mouth without Auto-Tune coming out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UstadKhanAli Posted December 19, 2015 Members Share Posted December 19, 2015 I could listen to John Mayer if he is doing his bluesy trio music with a lot of guitar playing and not his candy pop stuff. The others, no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The others, no way. No slag on his 6 string competence, but there are literally hundreds of other guitarists I'd rather listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
