Nice! 8-) The song looks like it's murder for their bows though, they'll probably have to have them re-haired after only a few performances of it. :-X

:o :o Just goes to show how versatile any musical instrument is when taken out of it's classic environment.

PS Reminds me of a famous conductor (can't remember who it was though :-[) who once turned to equally famous female cellist and said to her (or words to the following effect) "Madam, who have a wonderful piece of equipment between your legs and all you can do is scratch it" ;D
"A bit of a pickle" - British translation: A catastrophically bad situation with potentially fatal consequences.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

I think it was either Victor Borge or Sir Thomas Beecham.

That was tight.  And for two dudes to admit they play Celo on camera, that took balls.  But they played a clean skit.  You can tell by the video sequence it wasn't filmed as is.  THere were cuts and takes.  But they did it right.  Thumbs up.
