More on Ice Cream Truck Music

I've blogged before about my neighbourhood's lonesome trolling ice cream truck and its odd musical choices. Dale sent me this link about ice cream truck music. It's really lovely and it certainly conveys much more of the ice cream truck mystique than, say, "Home on the Range" which my neighbourhood truck played yesterday. One other interesting news item on the ice cream truck front: Rupert Grint (Ron Weasely in the HP movies) has purchased an ice cream truck of his very own. Says Rupert: "When I was younger I had sort of — always seemed like a really cool job to be an ice cream man," he said. "And I thought, why not? It was really cool as well. Like a freezer and some sinks. It's got a musical tune and all that. We drive it all the time. It's good." There you go, folks.
