B.A.D. Live – Nobo

If you shut your eyes and make contact with reality purely with your ears—I mean, it’s kind of silly, perhaps, to shut your eyes when you’re looking at television, but do it; just for a moment—and you will realize that the sounds you are hearing are all coming out of silence. You hear (Alan strikes a standing bell) and it fades away; fades, fades, fades, fades, and finally disappears. It’s a curious world, this—isn’t it?—because you hear all the realities in it, the sounds, suddenly coming out of nothing. You don’t see any reason for them to begin, they just appear and then they echo away through the corridors of the mind which we call memory.
