[Rumori] devo, erm. version 2.

reminds me of "The New Monkees," a tv show I caught a
few times as a kid, sometime in the mid to late '80's.
It was four new "musicians" doing new music, but very
much in the same "zany" style as the original Monkee's
TV show. It was also surreal, but ultimately very
stupid (not that the original wasn't kind of stupid,
too, but I was a big fan nof the Monkees as a kid)
