But it was taken down by YouTube. Lucky for us it found a home in the more permissive MySpace:

I liked it so much that when Bobby left the CBC I commissioned them to remix his exit interview with the Globe and Mail:
Maybe I have a juvenile sense of humour but I just find these guys hilarious. How it is that no TV show has hired these them to do this regularly is beyond me.
Well last month they uploaded Happy in Paraguay which continues with their Star Trek thing but contains a lot of their familiar themes and phrases, with a few new ones.
Artfag city listed it in their Best of the Web of 2009
Frat-boy humor? Absolutely, but it also achieves a sublime level of surrealism that Breton would have undoubtedly appreciated had he listened to Led Zeppelin.
It's currently at 900,000 views and ever since this hit The Tea Makers has had a constant stream of traffic, looking for DayJob Orchestra.
Well here it is. Enjoy.
