Please explain... Who is GWAR? What is Tiny Desk? What's going on??
Magic.
Not sure why you wrote it as quotes, but thank you for writing such a comprehensive answer to my questions. You truly are like magic, as you with no regard for humility, noted. The context given in the post was severely lacking.
Quoted because those were the first paragraphs from Wikipedia, just sucked to try to credit properly on mobile.
GWAR is a less-than-serious thrash metal band
Tiny Desk is a long-running series in which musicians (usually indie rock, but it has included all sorts over the years) are invited to do a stripped down set at, well, a tiny desk. There are a lot seriously high-quality performances in their archives, but GWAR... don't quite fit the usual theme
