Puff piece for a new film with Viggo Mortensen & Lance Henriksen,  who's apparently 80 !   I think I've only seen Mortensen in LOTR but Lance was in so much stuff in the 80's.  I even watched the first series of "Millenium" on a 14" portable....

They won't translate his lame shit into Farsi
Somehow to let it go would be more classy…

Interview with Roland Gift of Fine Young Cannibals.  https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/dec/03/fine-young-cannibal-roland-gift-i-went-back-to-where-being-pretty-didnt-matter

Corona cello https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSW_quaESoY

He hits a few bum notes, though.
This one was rather good too: https://youtu.be/hE1enPDh3nM
I think the cello is perhaps my favourite string instrument.*

A Spın̈al Tap piano, obviously.  Also, with a bit of transposition, used in the performance of Hol Rock.
