nights to play music from the original version of Tetris." Bravo!

The tunes from Tetris are Russian Folk tunes. I was the official Tetris
Champion at the Homowack Hotel in the Borscht Belt for two yuears, while I
was leading the band there. Of course, there were only about three other
regular players.
