Quote:SGT PEPPERSMust have lost his train of thought?I think the Sgt. Peppers song could be considered a march, kind of, maybe a prancy march. You know how the English are.

I was born in March and I marched a lot in the army... But even with all of that march-Karma in my life, do you think I could write one? Nope...We should put together a Jimi 'n Jello march...Do marches have words?Lennonesque reference intentionally included... see above...
