The Dark Power of.... Mac Sabbath

 Thanks to my sister on this one.  What do you get when you mix an anti-Fast food message, a parody of McDonalds corporate mascots, and a skilled Black Sabbath cover band? 

I give you...  Mac Sabbath.  Are they good?  Watch and be delighted, O you lovers of Ozzy with Vegan leanings.  



Super high praise for the guitarist playing under that massive costume. BUT WAIT!   Here's the hard rock icing on the social commentary cake: watch what happens when they wind up giving a performance for Ozzy himself! 


 "Funny as f***,  that!" laughs the 'Prince of Darkness.'

For a place full of imperialist opressors, they seem so nice!

The TV show "Glee" irritates me a great deal- Jane Lynch being the best part of the show- and I wish they had used the original. But this is a great video, not only because it shows Hebrew University, but also shows how young and wonderful the students are.

Isn't it amazing that a grouch like me could feel this way?

The original version. Or so I have been told.

The band guys have such great hair... ahh, the 70's, when all was good in the world- for us.

Muppets! Queen! Comedy!

A snapshot of what the world would have been like if Jim Henson hadn't died so damned early- or a tatse of what could be if the Muppet Show ever came back....

And right back to where we were.

Ahhhh. This is more like it. But at least it's Jewish.

Perfection!

No video has yet come around my way that I would define as so very truly Warnickian as this one, which features Czeck folk singer Ivan Mládek, performing his 70's European mega-hit “Jožin z bažin.” It qualifies on a second level because the music is just catchy enough to get wedged in your head for 3 or 4 hours.

Sit back and prepare for 2:33 of pure Warnickian glee.

Billions and Billions- in E Flat

If you were a young nerd, or even semi-nerd in the 1970's, you probably watched Carl Sagan's PBS series "Cosmos." The best bit was probably when he gets caught in a supernova, but that's a matter of taste. But who knew the man was a pioneer of the music that would make Moby become a vegan millionaire? Sing along if you like!
