Continuing what is now an almost regular feature, this Friday's musical interlude features the smooth sounds of Pink Martini. The music is as lush as the description:

"Somewhere between a 1930s Cuban dance orchestra, a classical chamber music ensemble, a Brasilian marching street band and Japanese film noir is the 12-piece Pink Martini."

It's a Friday rhumba in the lazylaces household [thanks to ritilan]!

Fantastico!

wow. just earlier this year in february, my orchestra got to play a full length concert with Pink Martini, and it was AWESOME. these guys, specially thomas lauderdale the pianist, are really nice, gave us all (60+ high school students) free copies of their sympatique cd, talked with us, showed us stuff. it was an incredible experience, props to them!

Yeah, that concert was awesome. Zarzar was the coolest. I'm going to go see them tomorrow at a concert here in town - should be a lot of fun.

Check the notes below if you want to do clever spoiler, hint or avatar stuff and you don't know how. Otherwise just add a comment (it's pretty simple):

SPOILERS/HINTS: Use the special <spoiler>, or <hint>, tags by wrapping them around your comment if you want to provide help in games comment threads. 'Wrap a tag' around your comment by placing one tag in front of your comment, and one tag after. See the examples below:

• Just type a regular comment.
• <spoiler>Wrap spoilers for games in spoiler tags</spoiler>.
• <hint>Wrap hints for games in hint tags</hint>.

If you are still stuck, try copying and pasting one of the examples above into the comment box, or use the hint & spoiler buttons.

AVATARS/GRAVATARS: Comments now support Gravatars if you would like to use your own user avatar/picture/icon on your comments. Simply enter the email address from your Gravatar account in the email field when adding your comment if you would like to use this feature. This is purely optional though, and you do not need an Avatar, or a Gravatar account, to use the comments. Note that if you enter your email address in the email field, but it's not associated with a Gravatar account a default avatar image will be used.
