    You want to give the crowd a WTF moment? Check out Dick This! by Dick Brave & The Backbeats from Germany. 50% of the album is traditional 50s rock, but the other is covers of non rockabilly music. George Michael, Michael Jackson, Pink, Red Hot Chilly Peppers, Aerosmith, etc... Really.

    Really cool spoof of the Run DMC/Aerosmith collaboration from the 80s.

    I was in Berlin in 2005. I hadn't watched any TV in about a month, so I flipped on MTV Europe for a Vincent Vega moment. (They got the same E30 M3 we got here, cept over there its just... a little different.) In between a constant rotation of 50 Cent and Gwen Stefani-literally EVERY 10 songs, I caught that song. I bought the album that day. Pure bliss the day I got home and listened to the whole thing.
