Rudy Van Gelder Yelled at Me Today

I understand trying to make a briefest contact with someone one considers an icon, but what kinda gets meis after the guy has made it parfectly clear he wants no contact, just had to yell into the intercom the ostensibly innocuous thanks, just gonna get in that private world a little no matter what, is so pushy and self-concerned...just saying.

 

Hi CWD: I didn't yell, just spoke, and my thanking him was not ostensible, it was heartfelt. That said, it was definitely "pushy" of me to show up, I took the shot. Who knew, maybe my undeniable charm could've won him over and I could've been invited in to hear some unreleased outtakes. Now that's self-concerned!

 

Happy 91st BDay today to Mr. Geller.
Over on the Organissimo forum, someone called this thread "a classic."
Fun stuff.
