Some of ze most beautiful musik in ze vorld is performed by Polkaboy, a 14-piece polka band out of Indianapolis. In addition to standards like "Pennsylvania Polka" and "Beer Barrel Polka", the band covers decidedly non-polka standards such as "My Sharona" and "She Blinded Me With Science."
If you're ever in Indianapolis, check them out at the Ratskeller. They're fantastic live. To tide you over, however, you may purchase their CD's through their website.

I'm kind of a nerd, but that's the way I like it.
I had an excellent high school history teacher who taught me that we don't have "freedom" in the United States of America, we have independence, and that independence is "freedom with responsibility."
Voting the party ticket because everyone you know and trust is voting the party ticket, no questions asked? That's irresponsible. Paying attention to the election, researching the issues, finding out where the candidates stand on those issues and what effect their respective plans could have on the future of your country? Now we're talking.

Dude. Did you see Polkaboy?? You are the luckiest duck! (Not that I had heard of them before your post, but damn, they sound cool.)
Speaking of which, I would totally recommend Weird Al's new album. You HAVE heard 'White and Nerdy', yes?
I did see Polkaboy. An entire street was blocked off for the event. There was much beer and celebrating and many, many accordions, and fake German accents, (and one real German accent, though he refused to do the knee-slapping, hopping-around German dances you see at Oktoberfest.) And run-on senteces (and sentence fragments).
