Oh haha yeah sorry about that. In some forums, you use the embed code instead. Here we use the URL directly as some kind soul wrote up a PHP script (gotta' love open sauce!) to handle several video sources (youtube, google video, veoh, Daily Motion or Metcafe also I think). With that, we only need the "video" bbcodes, instead of one set of codes for each provider. 8-)

Stomp! One of the best "live" performance troupes I've ever seen (years ago when they came to Singapore).

I think stomp is the modern tap dance :) Nice percussion type of music :P

Grandrake, you play the guitar?

No sorry hehe. I just enjoy good, creative music and performances. You know - one of those, if you can't do - you're fascinated kind of things. :D

If I have kids, I'll definitely want to expose them to music and performances like these to let their minds run wild in the world of rhythm. Being unable to play a single musical instrument is one of my regrets in life.
