Danny, I will award you a 10 for mentioning 'Los Endos'. You have chosen the very piece that will be played at my farewell party, with a bit of 'Squonk' thrown in.........hoping everyone will melt away in tears.
Having been to my father-in-law's and my daughter's funeral recently (see my #38) , I feel qualified to judge on this, and was with you even before reading the final note. You'd best leave it in, though, as some might not appreciate the satire without it. It's a pity I'm not familiar with most of the pieces you refer to, but I get your point entirely. Neatly done.
Love a New Orleans funeral...dirges first, happy stuff after? You and I think alike (weel, now, admit it - that is frightening! !)
