The other day I saw the fabulous King Tut video over at FFE’s place and this morning I showed it to Nog (who very surprisingly had never seen it before). Anyhow, watching ol’ Steve walk like and Egyptian reminded me that he is in fact quite a fine dancer and I remembered a tv programme I saw ages ago (turns out it was in 1981) that had Steve and Gregory Hines tap dancing together. And I just found it on YouTube so here it is for your viewing pleasure.

And here is my hero having a banjo duel with the amazing Earl Scruggs . . .

Nog & I were over at our favourite local ay Maricrú! yesterday, having a pre-lunch drinkatito, and Coldplay was on the soundsystem there. Which reminded me of this very funny video by Mitch Benn called Everything Sounds Like Coldplay Now.

Any other good musical parodies you’d like to share?

Mitch Benn and the Distractions

ps. . . yeah I know – another video!
But it’s a really good one and it was either this or a rant about shoes. . .
