Er, over 21 years pushing up the tulips now, iirc, is a pretty good reason for being AWOL... ;) (rip)

No Fenders visible here, but plenty of dancing Finns.

To celebrate this thread, and in the memory of my godfather Onnie Paakkonnen, I offer you one solid hour of patriotic Finnish music.

The bored looking long haired bassist in the first clip is the late great Pekka Pohjola from Wigwam. The man Zappa almost hired, Mike Oldfield did hire and who wrote some magnificent instrumental music outside of ECM label. Superb bassist also.

I agree.

That's the exact same tune I posted above. Why would anyone make a new video with the original music? You can't get cheesier than the original.
