As people say (don't they?), "I don't know much about art, but I know what I like" -- and today what I like is this German oompah band playing Guns N' Roses.

This transcends awesome. The song brings back memories of my misspent youth, while the band appeals to my Germanic roots. On top of that, there's a figurine of a stag on the shelf in the background. Pure bliss!
I'm glad you appreciated it, Frank. My musical tastes can be a tad outré at times, so it's reassuring to know I'm not alone!
