Soooo, Zinzinnati, Do You Know What it is to Oom-pah, Oom-pah

If you never heard of a German band called an oom-pah band then you wass neffer in Zinzinnati.  If a German band shows up without a tuba and an accordion, you know they will just cover Beatles songs and Heymarket Riot could do that.

Ed:  who is Heymarket Riot?

If you do not know then you also wass neffer in Zinzinnati, at least not in the 70s.  They played at Alexander's in Clifton quite a bit.


Haindling definitely knows oom-pah since they're from a village in Bavaria but they've grown a wide following.  (WIKI:  Haindling)

You may not (i.e. definitely won't) classify this as oom-pah.




Hmmm ... oom-pah rap may result in a measure of cognitive dissonance ... but ... here's some more:  apparently the sound is about needing 'a splint for your butt' (i.e. Cat's explanation).  "Cop Killer" just isn't going to play with them.


But Haindling can do oom-pah just fine.




Cat told me this one is about how we need to stick together.
