There are a lot of "pseudo-funny" videos on the 'net, but this one is just hilarious.

Imagine how long it took him to find and/or tune all of those bicycle horns? 8O

Hmm... They don't have their server set up right - I just get a garbage text file. :( And I don't feel like running IE to see it. :razzing: I'll just take your word for it.

Save it to your hard drive and open it! You're really missing something good!

Just copy this into your browser address bar to open IE (come on, I'm making it easy!)

I've seen that before, but I really love it. The guy is very creative and quite talented. Even making harmonies! I was impressed with the performance the first time I saw it and am still amazed each time I watch it.

As an aside, if you have any control over the server that file is located on, could you please define a MIME type (http://www.beauvais1.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=27) for WMV files? Standards-compliant browsers don't know what to do with such a file and display it as text instead of downloading it or opening in Media Player.

Found that link on :google: , and I don't want to use my own server space. Feel free to host it yourself, though.

I have to say, I'm more impressed than amused. It's mildly funny, but considering I've played piano and some of these melodies, it's a lot more technically impressive than funny. My two cents.

Same here. I played piano for about 9 years and this is impressive. Not just the melodies themselves, but the fact that he had to strategically position the horns so that he could hit them without breaking an arm or leg. 8)
