In bass player parlance, that would be "he prefers to play erect".

Having now thrown down the gauntlet, I shall retire to a seat by the fire with a cold beer and watch the proceedings.

Jackie said that's "old news here", and then Roshina chimed in with "we've seen him doing that..." (I don't remember - Port Lymne Wildlife Park is where Roshina's "adopted" Malayan Tapir lives, too)

Any Gorilla drumming would be immediately in my band I tell you!

Which raises the question whether primates could be taught rudimentary forms of music? Has anybody tried?
