: Amanda Palmer wank!
Amanda Palmer is a solo artist, formerly one half of The Dresden Dolls. (She's also dating Neil Gaiman, but that's not important right now.) She's known for experimenting with music a lot and throwing spontaneous free gigs at airports and beaches. And inviting her fans to a night out at a strip club via Twitter, featuring Katy Perry and Peaches as surprise guests at her concerts, making silent films with Bill Nighy, things like that.
For the past month or so she's been tweeting about practicing a Tchaichovsky piece for an upcoming concert. She eventually decided it was too hard for her and came up with a pretty funny and creative solution (starts at 2:45), which she later blogged about, explaining why she feels it was the best thing to do.
( Some people didn't like it. )
