- I remember a story from a few years back, when the soundtrack to the
- movie "Sid and Nancy" came out. It was on the same label as a
- Lawrence Welk polka compilation CD, and somehow they shipped out several
- thousand Sid and Nancy CDs in the Lawrence Welk covers and vice versa.
- So the polka fans were getting the Clash and what have you, and the
- Sid worshippers were getting " ah one-a and a two-a anda one-two-three..."
- One of Welk's publicists commented that the LW fans were probably quite
- shocked...but not as shocked as the Sid Vicious fans probably were.
- Oh well...later.
