Ok, this is different. This morning in my Google news I saw a reference to the Canadian band Lowest of the Low whose album “Shakespeare My Butt” is ranked #10 in Top 100 Candian Albums of All Time. Not bad when you consider that Neil Young is on there at #7.
But then, upon googling for more references, I found
Shakespeare My Butt!: From ‘Marsupial Elvis’ to ‘No Place’… on the Trail of the Pointless Quest by John Donoghue which appears to be a completely unrelated book project.
Weird.
It is related in a tenuous way…. there are several references to the band, hidden or otherwise in the book…and the cover itself pays with the blindfolded Shakespeare is a nod to the bands album cover.
The book itself isn’t about Shakespeare or my butt! but it’s a fantastic romp through a very funny and chaotic mind. You can read some of the stuff at http://www.shakespearemybutt.org
Laugh out loud stuff
Well worth a visit
Actually…there is some Shakespeare stuff but just on the website…only on one page…an interesting discussion on who wrote Shakespeares work
