Try to check out the second piano concerto, Ugo - I think you'll like it. It's hard to find, unfortunately.

A savvy band ought to call itself "Derek and the Star Nonsense"; then every time anyone played "Wish You Were Here" they'd get a free commercial (just as Heaven 17 got a free commercial every time anyone watched Clockwork Orange).

I wonder what the star nonsense actually was?

@ nightspore (off topic): the "star nonsense" clip was obviously edited out from a longer clip extracted from a radio broadcast, and it was cut to insert the Tchaikovsky bit. I'm not even sure that those are the real words. The only things I can understand from that radio bit are the ending sentences: "What is it?" "I'm not sure."

I quite like the phrase "star nonsense". It sounds dismissive astronomically.

Maybe they were talking about some sci-fi TV show? :D
