It almost sounds like something orchestral.
This is awesome.

That's great- it reminds me of something Bob Moses said- something about seeing kids dancing to a misfiring generator motor in Africa.

1) I'm sure someone's already written it out and has been practicing it.

2) I think that was the inspiration for Carmen Appice's SLAMM.

Apparently, Tom Waits wrote a song (from the Mule Variations album, I believe) based on the beat he was hearing after his son (?) threw a pair of sneakers in the washing machine.

i'd love to see that thing up on stage performing with a band!

i think rush has washing machines on stage sometimes, but i don't think they're playing music.

They overdid it with the bleach in that load. It's too white.
