That would be "Musical Mike" Kieffer and his musical hands.

So does "Musical Mike" do weddings and bar mitzvahs? Does he play those musical hands for a living, or does he have a more boring job? Does anyone know him?
Enquiring minds like mine wanna know.

Well, Scotti- You're in luck. I just happen to have found a spotlight article on him in the November/December 1995 issue of the Midnight Star.....so, as of that time.....
His "real" job...
"I lead two professional lives: By day, I work as an electrical engineer and software designer for Hughes Aircraft, and in my spare time, I remaster old recordings for CD reissues and do music research."
There ya have it.

But he's really a super hero by night, right??
I guess the fast-paced life of an electrician will have to do...
Hopefully he's not an exotic dancer... :crazy:

If you want to search for subtle things and then count them, look for appearances by sandwiches on the Video Library. Mostly in the first few videos, a very similar sandwich appears. I haven't watched it in a while, but I think the number is somewhere from four to six.

Again, not a video thing, but another subtle thing I just noticed over at weirdal.com
When you go to the tour dates archives and click on a pre-TWS tour for more information, the image in the upper right hand corner is of the "old look" band -- Al with mustache and glasses, Jim with long hair -- and if you click on TWS or PHT, it's an image of the "new look" band. Pretty neat!
Of course, since Rubén joined in 1991, the pre-OTDE tours shouldn't include him (or Jim's long hair) but, hey, I thought it was neat anyway.

It is a nice touch. I hadn't noticed before that they included the new look ones, I had only noticed the old school pic and thought it was an odd choice. But of course, now it makes perfect sense.
I like that they included everyone. Nice touch.

Nice touch. I haven't noticed that recently, which is odd.
Though, it didn't always do that. During TWS and for a while afterwards, it would have the old Al and band pic up in the corner. That must be recent. Recent used in a wide sense, of course, going with months and 1 or 2 years.
