remember that footage of dudamel trying to get his string players to draw blood with their stabbing attack? such imagery might have a different impact coming from homie. is he thinking, or struggling with bowel issues? is it true the orchestra were behind him?

That's the way he looks when trying very hard to do something he's completely unqualified to do. You know, the way he always looks.
And he even managed to work in a joke about US support for torture. What a guy.

It makes me feel a little patriotic. Just a little. But I do love the Marine Corps Band.

Still leading a symphony that is all about...
Authorizing the illegal use of torture on military detainees.
Authorizing the use of illegal wiretapes on American citizens.
Authorizing the illegal use of former military personnel to disseminate government progaganda.
Authorizing partisan political activity by federal employees in violation of the Hatch Act.
Authorizing current and former administration officials to illegally disobey Congressional subpeonas.
Authorizing the illegal destruction of computer emails, logs and hard drives.

Fratboy couldn't lead a one-car funeral let alone the Marine Band. To bad the rest of the world can't emulate them and just ignore him...

Seeing as how things are going at La Scala perhaps the almost ex Mr President might consider the job of Musical Director for a theater that really merits him... Apart from the magnificnt Chorus under M.o Casoni... They have the best sound in the world again and I am happy about it!
