What band took a guitarist mainly so that he could buy alcohol for the rest of the musicians?

When Dexter Holland and Greg Krisel formed the band Offspring as high school seniors, they recruited guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman to join.

He was three years older, worked as a school janitor and already had experience playing in a rock band. But the main reason for the invitation was that Wasserman was of age and could buy alcohol for Holland and Krisel.

How did poetry originate?

First of all, what is poetry? Poetry is a deeply felt and deeply penetrating language, written and spoken in a special form. Rhyme in a poem is what distinguishes it from prose. From this we can establish how poetry began.

Of course, we will never know who first created the poem and when. But since we know something about the life of primitive people, we can guess how poetry began. Man performed various rhythmic dances long before the emergence of language. He made body movements, made sounds, lowing, shouted at special moments, such as, for example, before a battle or a hunt.

He also created a drum that could be beaten in a variety of ways. And soon man began to use sounds and drum rhythm to turn magic words to his gods. Primitive man began to develop a dance that became more and more complex as it developed. Soon the words of the divine songs become more important than the beats of the drums. The leader of this kind of ceremony was a kind of poet or bard.

At the same time, for thousands of years, man was influenced by the rhythms that he saw and heard everywhere around him - in the sound of water, wind, in the flight of birds, in the rhythmic movement of animals. In trying to reproduce some of these rhythms, man turned to the poetic imagination. Then people began to keep these dances, songs, spells. They were passed down from one generation to the next and became a form of poetry.

In ancient Greece in the XNUMXth century BC, poetry was written specifically for certain occasions, but it was still performed with music and dance. Later, the Greeks created a special kind of poetry, these poetic works told about heroic events or described the life of various people.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
