Sorry -- I don't understand my own question, but fancy its rhetoric may engender some gems. Suit yourself.

I was a Greek woman in a past life, and my husband was a poor but noble musician, who taught me as much as he could about music, while I was making lentil soup and flat-breads with wild herbs in them. Him.

I was Stevie Ray Vaughn in a past life. As such, I mainly listen to the A-Teens.

I was an arabic guy who played as Oum Katholum sang her heart out. And the crowd went wild!

I remember Marshall Ney boring me with his collection of abstract electronic records, and resolved to outlaw such nonsense. Sadly the battle of Waterloo didn't go quite the way I had hoped, so it was not to be.

Napoleon complex?

Fairly obvious and literal answers, but my dad and Laura :-(

I've been waiting for someone to ask this for years. About four hundred, to be exact.

In my previous life I designed some very weird and wonderful churches in Bristol, UK. It was about 1326 (the year, not lunchtime, dunderheads).

I was delighted, several incarnations later, to find that that funky, complex, architectonic, unique and soulful aesthetic had been reborn in the music of Tricky, MassiveAttack et al.

It's all obvious to me. I can try and explain further if anyone's interested, but it may have to be in Middle English.

probably Herbie Piercy and Tait Beaty. they took me to see hardcore and metal shows at the Vatican and the China King. i guess they were all-ages - they were like lawless places - the first a pizza place, the second a supposed Chinese restaurant. i don't ever remember seeing the owners or anyone in charge.
