When he started bouncing up and down I thought he was about to break into an Angus Young-style kick-hop-walk thing...

That bird has a better sense of rhythm and better moves than most humans I've ever seen.

I prefer the AC/DC parrot above, but this mallcore parrot is also pretty funny http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uguXNL93fWg

Our male eclectus digs metal. Anything with a double kick drum, he's all over it.

Of course, you could go the next step and hire a parrot as the lea singer for your death metal band. Like Hatebeak.

^Awesome .

I'm always saying how there's not enough avian-fronted thrash metal in music today.

[sigh!] Cypress likes to "sing" along with Cindi Lauper

If that doesn't make the magazine, I'm cancelling my subscription

And that bird is awesome. It just needs to headbang to GOOD music instead.

The Death Metal Rooster still makes me smile: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A43JOxLa5MM

resurrecting this thread because there's exciting new research out there: African Grey Parrots hate electronica

Dr Peron explained: “The electronic dance music was not appropriate for them. We had the radio on in the office and when it was a very fast beat, they started to scream; not in a friendly, communicative way but in a distressed, scared way. They seem to like pop music when there is a voice.” http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/9762864/Parrot-listens-to-Scissor-Sisters-music.html

Henry Rollins would be proud

Bah, white birds can"t dance
