Uncle Dave Lewis lives in a hole in the back of his brain, filled with useless trivia about 78 rpm records, silent movies, unfinished symphonies, broken up punk bands from the 80s and other old stuff no one cares about. This is where he goes to let off a little steam- perhaps you will find it useful, perhaps not. Who knows?

Snoop Dog's Classical Spanish Guitar Concert

"Okay now I'm gonna twiss'up my new joint wit' chall - this is my special Serenade to a castenet clickin' Flamenco bitch."

A Really Productive Way to Spend Your Time

Today, I transformed this maudlin bit of PBS copy:


Andre Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra make their premier appearance in Ireland and perform for thousands of delighted fans at the Dublin Depot in Andre Rieu: Live From Dublin. Filling the music hall with orchestral compositions, solo instrumental performances, vocal renditions (both solo and duets) and humorous skits, Rieu and the orchestra present an evening of entertainment that brings the Irish audience to its feet with fervent applause.

into this:

Andre Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra make their premier appearance in the Lower East Side and perform for thousands of delighted drug addicts at the 2nd Avenue Shooting Gallery in Andre Rieu: The Hits of Pussy Galore. Filling the music hall with such great Puss songs as "Kill Yourself", "You Look Like a Jew", "Eat Me" and "Shit Rain", Rieu and the orchestra present an evening of entertainment that brings the shooters to their feet out of a dead stupor.
