DnD is for EVERYONE

Neat! Others have mentioned similar events in this thread, but no one has yet mentioned ‘wielding a red sword’ which is a book in the incarnations of immortality series by piers Anthony. War himself is afflicted in the same fashion and sings to communicate. Oh and get your mind out of the gutter. Really good series.

Really? From his work in sabbath, he sounds like a crackhead stuck in a well, which is basically what he is. And I'm a fan of Ozzy era sabbath, precisely because he sounds like a crackhead stuck in a well, wheras Dio is the far better singer. Which took away from the atmosphere of sabbath. That and Iommi for some reason started to write a lot more in line with other people in the 80s.

Looked up a song and this interview, seems to check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SBaTjTH1gw > interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IST12a33X7o > song Interesting. I guess it's not even having to put a tune to the speech, just trying to work it with rhythmn seems to help (at least Typhoon).

That and Iommi for some reason started to write a lot more in line with other people in the 80s.I mean, his later solo stuff takes a lot of cues from classical music. I used him a LOT in a classical music appreciation class in college. At the end, I was asked why I didn't take the other music appreciation class - rock? Because it was only offered at 7am. Really counterintuitive for the crowd who grew up on "I wanna rock and roll all night, and party every day!" You can't do that with a 7am class.

That's awesome. A certain bat eating musician has a similar condition. Speaks with an impediment but can sing perfectly well, because it uses another part of the brain! Or something. This is a Lemmy comment, not an academic paper.Has he always had speech issues? I figured it was a side effect of the excessive substance abuse.

Sorry, who is the he in this case? Dio, Iommi or Ozzy?My bad, sorry, Ozzy. Don't get me wrong, respect for both Dio and Iommi for their contributions to the genre as a whole, but I was speaking specifically of Ozzy in this case.

I read the wall of text. What do I learn?

Oh that's actually a known phenomenon music is a different part of the brain from speech for some reason. Lemme get on the computer with a keyboard I've got a few more fun comments...> getting activated like a fucking sleeper agent LOL, from that description I knew what it would be before I clicked the link. Crazy video.

I’d put it at like 2 or 3 lines of text not counting keywords
