DISPOSAL I've always preferred the idea of burial. After Death of course.
COFFIN
RELIGION I am not religious. Definitely not. However, I'm nor sure that having a funeral as part of a service makes any odds anyway. Plenty of people who aren't religious get married as part of a religious service, it's just a traditional thing. Having said all that, as someone who splits their time between 80% Agnosticism and 20% atheism, it would be wrong to have a properly religious service. I've seriously considered joining the Humanist Society, but I'm not sure I'll ever get round to it. I suppose they must have some suitable service sans the big man upstairs.
GUESTS Anyone who knew me is welcome. The more the merrier. Let it just be a time for quiet reflection, some drink and it would be nice if somebody got laid too.
MUSIC I'm a little dubious on the whole "I'm dead, this is my music" thing at funerals. I've not been to one where there has been someones music. I'd feel pretty weird if it was something rubbish, or something I didn't like. Or something mawkish or cheesy or sentimental. I can understand hymns and something more culturally standard really, it's common currency. However, I may still list some things that I'd like played but I really don't know when:
Brian Eno - 1/1 (track 1 from "Music for Airports")
I love this piece, it just never quite resolves and I just find it so evocative of peace, permanence and a sense of melancholy. There is so little to it. To be honest, I find it quite hard to express how this piece makes me feel!
