I just watched this on iTunes and I laughed so hard when Kevin karate chopped the old lady. I was NOT expecting that. Good job. Sometimes the low budget movies have the best stories.
I got the feeling these two Hondonians are a local band with a funny gimmick and many followers who took the concept and made a movie. I shall try to find out more.
ok, karate chopping the old woman was a plus.
I liked the part where the General was showing Kevin what music was.
Not the goofy, half assed, reaction by Keven,
(as the General played a variety of music motiffs and examples of styles),
but the fact that the General is an excellent banjo picker!
I have not heard any classical riffs played on a banjo,
that was pretty cool.

Does anyone have a list of all of the music used in that melody? I recognized
01. 6th Symphony by Beethoven
02. Fur Elsie by Beethoven
03. Hello My Honey (Howard and Emerson)
04. Unknown
05. The Entertainer (S.Joplin)
06. The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi,
07. Hava Nagila (Traditional Jewish Folk song)
08. Unknown
09. Eine klein Natchmusik by Mozart
10. Carmina Burana O Fortuna by Carl Orff
Can anyone fill in the two missing pieces? The first one might of just been to necessitate a key change.
HONDO!
One of them (I can't remember the order in which they were played) was the Nintendo Mario Brother's theme. Which I found extremely amusing at the time.
share1. Morning Mood - Edvard Grieg - Peer Gynt
4. I Think 1 bar of Oh Susana before he runs up the scales
I think there might be one more between Joplin and Vivaldi.
Thank you for the corrections. ...I goofed, on #1 ... I do not know why I was thinking Beethoven.. I got sloppy ( I could blame the music listing for the movie "Soylent Green", but I won't).. Oh, Susanna? how Could I miss that...? Heh, Mario Brothers - I never played those video games, ...hmm, time to widen my musical tastes.
Hondo.
