I would enjoy that episode.
Unless a musical instrument is macgyvered into a weapon. That would be blasphemy.
And unless it’s part of that new series. That’s blasphemy as well.

If the instrument was broken and repurposed I’d forgive it.
No breaking undamaged musical instruments or books!
Yup, that new show is truly, truly awful.

Moved out to the burbs last year. There is a flock of wild turkeys that roam around the neighborhood every morning around 6am. I never knew what a pain in the ass they were with their friggin’ noise.
They move so slow I could probably just straight up walk up to one and net it. I asked my wife (former chef) how easy it would be to pluck one.
Her response: “Don’t”.
I’ll listen to her for now…but man, my tolerance is running thin nowadays. I’ve already got the water gun in the kitchen for the chipmunks.

A: The pianist is really struggling with the Wolfgang problem.
B: Which Mozart piece is he having an issue with? Sonata in D Major?
A: No, I mean that he was just mauled by a gang of wolves.

Apparently due to flights being canceled, not because Bolivia wouldn’t let them back in.
Where would they have gone? I assume that had they had an alternate destination, the German authorities would have helped them there.

Oh, yeah. Thanks. Yet another reminder of when my best friend told me that moon-faced bespectacled Sam reminded him of… me! WTboodyF!!!
all hail to the most ridiculous lyrics of a christmas song. I’ve always thought the greedy emphasis on the FIVE GOLDEN RINGS extremely hilarious.
to be on topic, the only actually nasty thing in the original story is the police harassing the musicians. Come on cops, these people are stranded far from home & family.

I’ll be disappointed if a book, movie, or musical didn’t come out of all this.

Someone should start a Kickstarter for them to charter a plane and go home, if they want.

Only slightly relevant but a high school friend of mine was the son of a member of the Vienna Boys Choir which was stranded in Melbourne at the start of the second world war.
