I think he’s doing the stay-at-home thing differently than most...

The only thing worse than having a neighbor playing the accordion outside has to be a neighbor practicing the bagpipes outside. Well, maybe the drums.

Come to think of it, I have to feel bad for all the people who were tortured by our entire marching band playing every morning during marching season. I guess they shouldn’t have picked a house right next to a high school.

I thought that the apartment I had on campus my last year of college was well-located. However... the soccer pitch closer to it than any other building was where the marching band practiced...

I never would have thought it possible to play Classical Gas on an accordion .  Once more, Weird Al does not fail to impress.

It’s more manic than it appears at first, given he’s playing the guitar line *and* the mason williams orchestral version accompaniment. One reason it comes across as so “noisy” when recorded impromptu without a sound engineer.

No doubt.  Accordion isn’t a popular instrument, but Al has skills.

First thing that came into my head was Lenny saying “Now do classical gas”

There wouldn’t be many things better than having Weird Al as your neighbor practicing his acc ordion outside, though.
