Hey everyone, I just wanted to make a quick post to introduce myself to you on this message board.


My name is Andy Moquin from Buffalo, New York. Glad to be a new member of this awesome forum site. I think I'll enjoy my stay here.


In the meantime, I will be stopping by once or twice a day to make some posts and be a part of what seems like a great community of music webmasters working together and do look forward of to know all of you guys.


Hope to build a great working relationship as possible as well as gain and share thoughts to the rest of the members. Let's have fun!

Welcome to MIMF, Andy.

Hi sir Frederik, Master Krummhorn and all the funny and enlightening guys of various kind of music and opinions at the MIMF from a former, far gone mimfer - intet-at-tabe equals Lars Hansen!

It´s been a while, since I last entered a post here and this time - for once not about jazz - and not about any other music style, now being a commonly resident of close to Florence, Italy with my awesomely, beautyful, rare and at the same time patiently (with me in particular having to sit quietly) sculpturring wife the vikinglishly danish Natasha.

I owe all of you guys at the mimf my sincere love- and appreciation for allowing me to be a part of this awesome site, especially at the Jazz thread, when I felt the most low and completely finished in my life, having the feeling of - the end.

It wasn´t, and at the same time it it took Contrambone´s post to me to realise this.

Unfortunately at the time, I couldn´t grasp it and went angry with him, having trying to teach him danish and all. I humbly ask for your forgiveness Contratrombone.

But it doesn´t matter. The anger has passed and I am a free soul.

To everyone of you Ms. Robin, Ms. Margaret and Ms. Judy and to sir Corno Dolce, whom I wrongfully called a chicken, and Mat from the Jazz thread - the incredible mulitiinstrumentalist Mat with the upcoming mastership of the polish bisquit, and the wise Master Krummhorn and everyone else, I have ever had to chance and pleasure to talk to and discuss with - You guys with your forevet ending love and suppurt made me come back on top, whether you believe it or not, to do what I do best in my life and have spend years as a lobbyist, prior to one stupid violent assault in Begium, to perfect - to help someone else, an organisation or anyone individual, who is in less worth as a human being or wellbeing than myself.

Having spend 6 weeks on a camel in Iraq recently, to see what America really has done of damage to this country and it´s population, which has never been reported correctly thorugh the CNN or any other news channel in Europe (as usually like with the former Vietnam and before that Korea), I can only say - Thank God, The Chimp - George W. Bush - is no more. Iraq today is not worse then before Saddam Hussain, it is up for keeps, which means people are sufffering in the kind of way where medicin, fresh water, health care is but a dream - the USA never intended to bring DEMOCRACY to Iraq - like they never díd to Korea nor Vietnam, only beneficial to US - economical trading, and as we all know it Osama Bin Laden is still at large.

However the typical camel, this kind of freaking looking animal on it´s long skinny and somewhat shaky legs - the camel - is without any whatsoever normal exsistence of this world. It can go for days on end without water, not like it´s seasickening passingers on it´s back, trying to keep the wommiting inside, and still it is uncontrolable and forthgoing for the goal and will keep on walking in the warm or more precisely God damn hot sun, never on ending dusty sand.

We all must be able to find a peacefull understanding, so the less benefitted countries, whom we have raped for centuries in the name of the illutionarely fake Jesus Christ and equally fake God from it´s wealth, religion and culture and harwested from, so all of the Middle East may be giving a chance to find itself without western capitalism and colonianism.

I felt as a dane, a half italian and as a european under the western hemosphere humble, but in shame of what we and America has done to Iraq to bring this non-violent population to it´s - not heels, but toes. The goal was never to democratise Iraq, but to blast it away to Kingdome Come, even after Saddam Hussain had been killed.

What sort of humans are we in the west to do this to a country and it´s population, never a thread to us, the population of Europe in the EU nor America with more weapons of mass destruction, than any other country worldwide - to keep this hatred up?

So I am quite convinced, as a non suppurter of US economical-beneficial-pride these days back in Europe and Denmark in the summer time, for the past three days with wealth and with lots and lots of free water from the free running tap, there might - after all - be a God. I hate camels from now on from the bottom of my heart (not sure if I really have any heart left after Iraq) because of this victorious looking animal having gone mile after mile without water and yet I definately admire this godforsaken creature for saving me.

Well back to the subject.

I wish for all of you musical friends of the mimf to benefit in life, whatever your wildest dreams might be. It seems to me, you´re all created from the right material.

So Go for it and thank you for caring for me personally, when times for me were low - Go for your dreams without any hesitation.

Your´s forever more,

Lars Hansen
