The Lone Ranger Theme Drives Californian’s Tonto
TO Avenue K in the Californian desert of Lancaster.
You drive, and as you drive you wheels pass over grooves cut into the road surface that play the Lone Ranger theme.
Yes, it’s the famous Rossini overture. Now, that’s driving music to drive you Tonto. Says Donna Martin in the Daily Breeze newspaper:
“I think it’s terrible because it keeps me awake at night. You can kind of tell it’s music, but it’s not any tune or notes. It’s a scratchy sound, a high-pitch drone.”
Everyone’s a critic.
But while the road is silenced, and the music banned, Old Mr Anorak has decreed that the Million Mile Walk that serves as the corridor to his inner sanctum is made musical.
Now anyone approaching with the purpose of asking for money, heating and light can step along and here as they go the opening stutter to 2Unlimited’s seminal 1980s hit No Limit.
No. No. No, no, no, no… No, no, no, n… And so on…

It’s the frightening off-key calliope music from the western-themed circus of my nightmares. Giddy-up there, inside-out horsey! Giddy-up!
[I'm no longer an apocalyptic eschatologist. Mainly 'cause I remembered how John the Baptist lost his noggin. It's twelve 'o' clock and all's well, my glass is half-full of a plummy Syrah...as they say in the country that only exists in my damaged brain - Wahey! I'm very, very sorry for predicting the fall of civilisation and the return of the dark ages...It won't happen again.]
