If I was rich, I would hire this Austrian band to play Slog Happy this Thursday. No really, I would.

Before Slog Happy send them to open Publicola's tunnel panel discussion that night at City Hall - give all the worriers there a chance to smile at something for a sec.

How much did the DSBA pay them to put on that "discussion"?

The only thing the Austrians got right was convincing the world Hitler was German and Beethoven was Austrian.

It's okay if you can't get them by Thursday. There's always next month's Slog Happy... in Vienna.

@5 What a nuanced interpretation of world history! Have you written your local Germanic Studies department with your ideas on the subject? It would be wrong to deprive the world of your insights.

You do realize that's a dub to a studio track, don't you?

@8, you blow my mind - can you point to any other "videos" prepared in this sneaky fashion you describe?

LOL. Horn-guy constantly looks like he's about to let rip a massive fart.

The legion of Lawn Gnomes (Gartenzwergen) at the edge of the lawn is scary. These guys are terrorists. Because I say so. Gitmo awaits.
