Music 101 - EXAM - Thursday 12pm

"Welcome to your last class for Music 101 dudes. You don't have class next week because classes finish on Wednesday. The day, not the student. Today is your EXAM. I hope you brought a pen. In case you didn't, there's some on the table in the corner. Please sit down at one of the desks. Before we start, I've got a few things to say.

Tonight is the Band recital, in here at 6pm. Be sure to stop by and support your fellow music dudes. There will be free punch and pie.

Lane Kim, Lily Evans and Rose Tyler - I never got your 'Your Life As A Movie' projects. Leave them with me today or you'll fail that project.

Okay dudes, here's the exam. Remember - no talking and no cheating. I think you can all do it without cheating. You've got the whole class time to do it, and you can leave once you hand in your paper to me. You can turn over your exam paper and start work."

[OOC: This thread will be open until Monday. If your character does not show by then, they will fail the subject. If you are reading this after Monday and have an RL reason for not showing (and are willing to give your character a *suitable* IC reason for not taking the exam), please contact me and we can arrange a supplementary exam.]

doo da dee dum
dum dum dee doo

I think this points to the eternal metaphysical importance of having friends who're there for you, and how much that can mean to people.

3. Pick a movie of your choice and discuss its soundtrack (either the official one or the music in the movie). Point out what was hot and what was not.

"My heart will go on" soundtrack for Titanic, because i'm a very big fan of both Celine and the Titanic. What was hot: Celine's hair, i wonder what kind of conditioner she uses. What was not: The fact that the Titanic sunk. I didn't expect that. Don't let go Jack, don't let go!!!!!11!!

4. What do you think would happen to the world if music disappeared? Explain your answer. [extra credit: use pictures] Another Big Bang, but a very psychedelic one: like this (http://images.google.nl/imgres?imgurl=http://www.fractalus.com/kerry/gallery5/bang.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.fractalus.com/kerry/gallery5/bang.html&h=600&w=750&sz=190&tbnid=YDu74TnInJEJ:&tbnh=112&tbnw=140&hl=nl&start=5&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbig%2Bbang%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Dnl%26lr%3D). But that's just a hypothesis, of course.

5. Giraffes. Musical creatures or not? Why?

Yes, i assume they can headbang very well with those long necks. Rawk on! Metal will never die! \m/

EXTRA CREDIT QUESTION: Who took the Bomp from the Bompalompalomp?

I did. Out of jealousy. And then i planned on returning it 'cause i felt guilty, but then i lost it. And then i thought, well feck it, and went on with my life :)
