One of the recent news items on the OES fire said that “the orchestra takes pride in describing itself as “the most remotely situated full symphony orchestra on the planet.””
Actually, that nickname is just the legacy of a long-forgotten newspaper writer.
The actual members of the orchestra and I refer to the orchestra, with pride, as the “best goddamn redneck orchestra in the world.”
No offense to other redneck orchestras.

What’s a Redneck’s last words?
“Hey, y’all, watch this!” or
“Here, hold my beer.”
And now
“We startin’ with Mahler?”
Hey now, I’ve rodeoed before.
