By coincidence, I only recently stumbled on this video too. I think it's great, not least because of the way he mixes the comedic with the despairingly tragic; "dirty stains on history's final page" is a wonderful line. It also reminds me of an old joke about the difference between the American and British views of life - for an American, things are serious, but never hopeless, whereas to a Brit things are hopeless, but never serious.

In the seventies, the BBC broadcast an adaptation of Sartre's The Roads to Freedom, which acquired a cult following in our sixth-form. I can't remember a single thing about the characters or story, but the haunting theme song has never left me; La Route Est Dure, sung by the wonderful Georgia Brown.

Terveisiä! I have fond memories of a trip to Hämeenlinna, just up the road from you, in November 2017 to see Värttinä with Paleface at the Verkatehdas. Had fun going round the castle too!

Feel free to start your own thread about any of the benefits that Brexit has brought to the bass-playing community.
