Where's the helicopter?
He dropped the music cargo and bolted. Who could blame him?

Uhh, yeah, not a fan of the KS HS.
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

Great album, but I'm against finger abuse and this goes too far.

Or...it's the ultimate representation of Jazz hands ever, perhaps it's Broadway Hands.

The gesture reminds me of politicians.

I suddenly think about the Addams Family and other creepy movies...

I knew there was a reason I wasn't watching the "re-make."

Dear Thing in the classic show was never creepy.  And he was musical!

You should reconsider, the modern Thing was adorable as well!

In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

This is a perfect blend in.  Looks completely natural, that it's scary.  :)  You're too good at this, Greg!  8)

I like PJ though, he's a good conductor, but yes, he is a cover hog.  Another conductor I like, but who seems to also be a cover hog is Vasily Petrenko. 

I sense a face-off (a la Nicholas Cage/John Travolta) between Vasily and Paajo.   :D

Naxos somehow got the idea that VP was the only way to sell Shostakovich CDs, which is really rather strange. But then, they did this to Marin when she was in Bournemouth too, so maybe it was a UK-targeted strategy...

I think the Petrenko and Alsop Naxos photo-op strategy was indeed a targeted strategy:  To appeal to all sectors of the female audience.  ;D

Leave it to Paavo and his inflated ego to photobomb an otherwise nice cover. ;) ;D
