Heard this on an airplane recently:

----------

"Knock, Knock"

"Who's there?"

"Knock, Knock"

"Who's there?"

"Knock, Knock"

"Who's there?"

"Knock, Knock"

"Who's there?"

"Knock, Knock"

"Who's there?"

"Phillip Glass"

"In the land of the Dacotahs,
Where the Falls of Minnehaha
Flash and gleam among the oak-trees,
Laugh and leap into the valley."
- Song of Hiawatha

Have you seen him in concert? Figured you live/lived in NYC, you might have. Or perhaps you do not like him at all (so many do not).

I suppose it has to do with the repetitiveness of Glass's work, saying the same things many times. He pretty much "invented" "Minimalism", y'know.
