I heard an ad today for one of the many brands of HD radios that
are out there right now. In the course of the ad they mentioned that
you can even get an "All Polka" radio station on HD.
I can't help thinking that could be the premise of a fun piece of
fan fic. Nick's love of all the high tech electronic toys leads him to buy
an HD radio for the Caddy and then Schanke tunes it into a polka station
where it gets stuck.... I don't have the time to write it so if anybody
likes the idea take it and run!

Cute idea. While on the subject of polkas....does anyone know the name of
the polka Schanke was playing in the Caddy in 'Dark Knight"?
I've had several people of late recognize the car at car shows and would
love to have the polka playing in addition to the clips of the Caddy in the
show. I think FK fans seeing the car would get an additional kick out of it.

No idea, but I had a memorable FK moment a couple of years ago at one of the
local Wine Festivals in Germany. After a long day wandering round the
various displays and stalls (and imbibing some local vintages!) my hubby and
I took a break inside a crowded wine tent where some musicians had struck up
an impromptu performance (they were a few members of a band that had played
earlier). They played several tunes I didn't recognize, followed by one
that I DID though I couldn't for the life of me figure out where from.
Suddenly it hit me, and I jumped up and yelled - loudly - "Oh my god it's
the polka from the caddy!"
Cue awful off-key sounds of musicians juddering to a halt, followed by
complete and utter silence while every eye turned my way...
My hubby just quietly stood up and left the tent.

The chorus from the song sounds like "I Love Perogies (and?) Polka", which
would certainly fit will with Schanke's Polish roots. Anyone have a
different take on it?

You might want to look on the DVD box. I think they are required to credit
music used.
