In the spirit of The Beatles' Love, someone remixed and recombined a bunch of Rutles songs... and...
I'll let him tell you:
During a layover between flights in 2000, Stig befriended the founder of renowned square dancing troupe Circle of Hay. Over beers in the Concourse bar, they discussed the idea of doing a new show using Rutles music but lost touch after Stig's retirement. With the blessings of Dirk and Barry, who were easily reached, work began on recombining classic Rutle tracks in ways that could support a show and give this semi-legendary band another lunchtime.
They made the Sixties what they are today, and we hope we have helped make them that again.
The Circle of Hay/Rutles collaborative production of LUNCH ran for 3 shows at Tulsa's Central Community Center, February 29-31 2010.
I'm sure there was a good reason I missed this important show. But I can't recall what it was; better check my calendar!

I was going to go to the show but never made it. Glad the music is out! - B
PS WOW!
stands the test of time-keep up the good work kid-let’s open up a bar-we will have the best jukebox in town
I had the Rutles album on vinyl back then. I should go dig it out of storage!
And my dog (seriously) enjoyed Between Us even more than i did
Love it, love it, love it. And not only that, I love it.
Cheese and onions,
