What do you think?

P.S. It's still alicelizard...but with a boring (and necessary) name. :-(

Alice, I really enjoyed your performance of the Ziggythingamajig. Well done!

Neil

I love it! You play with a lot of passion!
My speakers aren't working, but when they do, I'll listen to you first. Why the change in your name?
They want to host the fictitious lives of real people.

P.S. It's Ziggy-rific!

...or the real lives of fictitious people...or the fictitious lives of real people who *seem* real...or real fictions, or fictional reality...
Your performace is marvelous! Was the recording made with your newish digital recorder? If so, I am impressed with the quality.
Oh! I get it now!! The C. SMith part. Heh, heh.

Gah! Only 52 seconds worth of Ziggienifious music! You don't know how disappointed I was when the recording suddenly stopped. Let me know when I can hear the whole thing.

Evil something must have zigged when it should have zagged. I have 8:48 of the ziggyqueen.
Hmm... Really... Let's try to ziggie zaggie again then.
Yes, it should be zigging along for quite a while. Did it work the next time?
Ahh! It zigooonzigazoonzonned!!

Yay! Time to listen to some fantastic playing! Ahh!!The gypsies attacked me with their hoop earrings!!

Excellent playing! It's nice to hear it played less indulgently and more cleanly than usual.
Well, ZIGEUNERWEISEN (how can you all NOT write out that incredibly awesome name?!) is my favorite piece, uh, EVER! So of course I loved it, but, "Alice" - you did an amazing job!! :D
Oh wait, we should be calling you 'C' now, hehe.
And if you have a video of you playing zig then you should put that up! I love watching performances!
I want to hear Zigeunerweisen on a Szygmuntovitch.
I kept my promise. I just got new speakers for my computer this afternoon, and I listened to your recording of ZigZag. It was great! I agree with Jude that it sounds good when played cleanly, as you did, rather than overly "slurpy-like" as it so often is.
