lucky kids……
@itsstillfriday Her deafness let her to actually approach SOUND with such UNIQUE paradigms!! One idea that The Dame inspired me to consider is that… there are
transitions in energy …as one hears and feels music.. There are the
unique sound waves which are produced by striking
a drum head.. or glass plate.. or a wood block.. and those sound waves
tickle and massage physical mechanisms within our ears…(or on evelyn’s feet!)
@itsstillfriday Those mechanisms transition the sound into the format which allow our brain to
haha!
produce very unique chemicals.. as well as for particular synapses to
fire with a new purpose.. All of which we recognize as feeling.. and
emotion..So sound ends up within us as emotion… hmmm.. sounds
almost flaky.. if it wasn’t within the reality of physics …Oh.. And Evelyn can also read Muppet Lips!!
woah…she’s better than me on snare! holy cow! and she’s an amazing marimba player!
you know i love her , i would marry her
@ilkinond he actually had the legs of the piano cut off so that it could lie on the ground and he felt the vibrations that way.
But Muppets don’t have lips. Just saying.
Machinehead pedals (MHP), just released a new line of “Evelyn” pedals for guitarist. What an amazing person. Xheck those pedals out.
How does she know what the puppets are saying?

@Nahdens Yes – and he was drunk all the bloody time as well – what an amazing guy!
Seriously. lol.
Evelyn Glennie bad and cute with that accent that looks so good on her. Shoes off ? She’s hot.
She is so amazing! I wonder if she puts in her bio that she played on Oscars trash can…HAHAHAHA
80% deaf when last examined as of 2009
he can not hear you ^_^
Look, I saw your conversation on another video of Evelyn Glennie and it’s obvious you won’t accept any reality but the one that says she’s hard of hearing. You can’t comprehend the fact that she is diagnosed as partially deaf. In fact, she is more deaf than not. Do you understand?
@drummr4JC well she is hard of hearing
She’s not completely deaf. I know people who have had conversations with her but she really is partially deaf.
hahahah the beginning sound like a fart xDDDD
