I also tried quacking with a girl today and it was quite effective!!! And there is LOTS of laughter in my studio as well... in fact, I had a very talented older bass a few months ago and I was very uncomfortable with him because he never cracked a smile!! He was a very uptight man and when I moved, he decided to take some time off. Frankly, I was relieved ... nice guy, but he made me feel uptight and I don't like that!!!
