Can anyone here sing well?

If so, what's your highest and lowest note, respectively?

Well, since no one's claimed it, I am the best singer on the forum. I can hit notes you've never heard of before.

I can sing really low. My music teacher once told me I had a 64-foot stop, which made me think twice. Apparently it's an organ reference.

Boom boom!

This is a trick question. Best singer on the forum is spelled out in the url. After all he is a forum member.

I'm not a bad singer, I guess. I don't know what the highest note I can reach is, though. I don't have a great range.

I'll bet Frank cannot shatter a crystal goblet (unlike Jim Gillette of Nitro).

Too bad Jim Gillette isn't on this forum.

He "claimed" that he could shatter a crystal goblet. He came on Mythbusters and could not do it without a rediculous amount of amplification - more than any band/vocalist would ever use. You probably could have amplified his fart and it would have worked!

my range has gotten higher lately so I´ve been working on reextending those low notes I used to get as well as the higher ones. At moment I sing from the lowest E on guitar and highest a B, 19th fret on high E string of guitar.

ridiculous: adjective. Worthy of ridicule. Pronounced: ri-dick-you-luss.

There is no hard 'e' Unless you want to be funny and say RE-diculous and really emphasise the 're'.

And I have now made my daily contribution to the "Dean's a loser" fund.

Beside Frank Black I am probably the best singer on that board. Maybe Cassandra Is might challenge me... though I haven't seen him live yet! I am longing this experience.

I'll tell you what's ridiculous: calling "ridiculous" a noun. It's an adjective.

'Tis indeed. On a pipe organ, if an eight foot stop is pulled, the note sounds at the pitch it is. For example, if you play a middle C, it will sound like a middle C. A four foot stop causes the note to sound an octave higher, two foot is two octaves higher, 16 foot is an octave lower, 32 foot is two octaves lower, sixty-four foot is three octaves lower, etc. It would be very rare to find an organ with a 64 foot stop, but there are some. The organ I often play on has a couple of 32 foot pedal stop, and when you play a low note, the auditorium almost literally rumbles.

Interesting. Do you "often play" a pipe organ? If so, where?

And in this topic too, how appropriate, this website calls STIV "the greatest singer who ever lived."

You said you would show up anonymously and skewer me, this is just way too obvious!

I note that you have the Sandbar Music and MyMusic sites in your profile.
