In Between Chainsaw Sculptures
We have the Little Brown Jug this year. A somewhat rare occurance. More info about the jug.
These adorable little guys had just heard an interesting sound and ran over to see what it was.
I just hacked out a big music list from my Facebook profile that came off as elitist and pretentious. For posterity, I’ll preserve it here.

I cut it down to two artists.
The theremin is played without touching it - An electronic instrument invented by a Russian scientist in the early 1900’s … it’s responsible for some creepy sound effects in movies (especially in the 50’s), but also playable as a ligitimate musical instrument.
See an amateur performance. Also, the BBC program South Today, had a good video about it.
Genius opening skit - Goodness this is brilliant. As a fan of House, I especially like Hugh Laurie’s cameo in the skit.
Best line: “No, I did not have Conan O’Brien fall through the ceiling.”
Conan O’Brien Sings “Trouble” - With a capital T and that rhymes with G as in “gee we’re screwed.”
