[NewMusic] "My Cage (Silence for Cellphone)"

[Brady Sharp]

"The composition of this e-mail has been performed by merely regard it."

Now, give me my royalties!

Reminds me of the part in Uncle Meat when Don Preston is arranging
socks on a table, saying "now THIS is my best composition"...

Seriously, Barry's reaction to the Silence phone ringer was not
dissimilar to when the piece was originally performed, but the irony
is done!  Every new generation finds a new application for it and it's
getting old!
