Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for December 30, 2020

If a performing horse smashes a violin in the middle of a stage, and an audience of hearing people is present, is it truly a ‘Silent Night’?

Too much gratuitous violins, Samson!

But he’ll perform it silently.

He should also turn off the lights for total authenticity.

Dang. Too much violins in this comic.

I don’t know why his ego’s so little, smashing a perfectly good fiddle (with apologies to John Hiatt).

John Cage will sue.

can’t be more silent than that, cept that first bam on the wall though.

And when he was done he took a bow.

Horace didn’t say a word…..I guess the cat gut his tongue.

A good horse, as well as a good trainer, knows when to quit ;)

I dunno, that didn’t seem very silent to me…

Lindsey Stirling would be so disappointed.

The audience said HOLY ….(not night)

Now you know how some people are persuaded to become mimes.

Punk version.

and so Horace’s version becomes a smash hit…!

and now it is a silent night!

Not going to win any prizes.

Multiple Encores of John Cage’s 4 minutes 33 seconds

Expensive, but effective.

Holy Night!
