Add a composer game

[Alban Berg]

oops...Igor Stravinsky

 

[some guy]

Zamboni does not start with "R" (from Vivier); Scriabin starts with neither the illegitimate "I" nor the as yet unused "R" from Vivier. And while Igor starts with "I," Igor is a first name, and the game goes from last name to last name.

Of course, Neil Diamond was equally illegitimate--and that in two ways!

And there have been so many deviations from "the rule" on this thread, that this post of mine is just so much pedantic silliness.:smirk:

Yep, this thread seems to have veered way off course, so... pretty much anything goes at this point, I guess. To think, at one point posters were supposed to search the thread in order to avoid duplicating a composer's name. Ah, those were the days. lol (more pedantic silliness )
