Oh, and speaking of Internet memes...

I was researching a great polka we play in session called The Finnish Polka.
It turns out the tune comes from a song first recorded in the 1930's called
"Ieva's Polka". This song was recently rerecorded by the band Loituma, and
for some reason someone put it with a video loop from a Japanese cartoon
of a girl twirling a leek. Because the Internet is a strange place, that video
was wildly popular and Loituma became... well, not famous, but certainly
more widely known than they were. Here's their live performance of the
song:

(I'm sure this is old news to Scandinavians and Internet hepcats, but I thought
folks who play that tune might be interested in the song version.)

I know there's gotta be a moral here somewhere, but I'm laughing too hard to think what it might be.

This was a viral video, but I missed the bus 'til recently.
It's a hand dance done to a Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger".
Very boring for 50seconds, then starts to get interesting. Really makes its
case one minute after that.
