pianoloverus Yikes! 10000 Post Club Member Registered: 05/29/01 Posts: 14717 Loc: New York City	Just a silly musical pun. Hoping some posters will give us some more puns to enjoy. There is actually a piece by that name: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zZ-nvkykUQ Max Keenlyside is a terrific stride pianist, but you may not enjoy the introduction where he plays the piece mostly straight. If so, try skipping to 1:12. Edited by pianoloverus (02/01/12 04:04 PM)

He would slap that guy silly with his white glove.... _________________________ "One's real life is often the life that one does not lead."- Oscar Wilde www.youtube.com/Biffer5 www.peytonart.com

I had to do eine kleine Google search for help with that... but figured it out when I saw mention of "Wolfie" in connection with the title! It deserves a loud groan of exasperation... that's like the applause for any truly bad good pun.
