Look at that! An improvement on the Bodine-O-Phone. I never thought I'd live to see this day.

He's working on version 2.0 of that machine.  I love the tune as well, I'll put it on the list for the next show :)

Yup, my 30-something year old music trained son came home for the holidays wearing one of the t-shirts to support the effort, that's where I learned about Wintergatan and the next version.  I really like the tune, too.  It sounds like the background music in a 60's/70's film of tooling around a European setting in a Triumph convertible. Glad to hear it may get some air time - thanks! 

Now, if In A Gadda Da Vida comes out of the next contraption, immediately send him and his machine to the Hall of Fame in Cleveland.
