Big Ben

When asked, 'If the orchestra conductor had made an effort more concerted not to miss the concert and a sordid scene averted, would he have been less disconcerted?' "Don’t ask me, I’m only the drummer," replied I in chagrin. And, altho' the name of my favourite band is the one I am currently in, I do like the sound of the moniker, 'Big Ben,' it's music to my ears and have to admit, it has a certain ring to it." As it appeals one feels it would sell well as a bell (at fifteen point one short tons) and wake everyone with its loud knell.
