Thanks for making my day, no matter how many times I read/hear this I feel an urge to roll on the floor in laughter. That's an idea that belongs on the same shelf as believing Santa exists or pro wrestling is for real. Those who really believe in what they're doing are only a very small minority, for the rest it's only a show. Maybe I would've bought the shtick 30 years ago, but now it takes more than smoke and mirrors to fool me.
Good music doesn't need any wrapping, and certainly doesn't need to be sold as a circus number.
