[f_minor] 109

Speaking of chairs, is it true or false that his dad made more than one ? I seem to have read that somewhere...there seems to be a lot of urban myth and hagiography around that chair....

"and did you notice that he put something on the chair?  I'd never seen that before."

Haha Fred, that's the stuffing of the chair tumbling out and when all that stuffing was finally gone GG sat on just the T-bar of the chair... not so great for his coccyx.

Sounds like it was done in mono.  Too bad we can't hear this done by him in stereo, or did he do one in that form?  The technique is of course amazing.  I like the way his body swirled around in circles and did you notice that he put something on the chair?  I'd never seen that before.
