Last night I was relaxing watching the Astra satellite.  No Guiness in
sight, but I was sipping a Jever, which is very good in the metal can but a
little skunky in the bottle. 

WDR had on one of those military band extravaganzas, where a series of bands
come out and do something like a halftime show in a big arena.  This one was
recorded in the Stadthalle at Bremen in 2004.  

To my surprise, One of the bands did a pretty good version of Lassus, and
was very well received by the crowd.  They made a real show out of it, with
the trombone players walking up into the stands, interacting with the crowd,
etc.  

I didn't think I'd ever see Lassus while living in Europe.  Given the times,
not sure I'd ever see it again when I return.
