Subtitled for my fellow Genesis fans!

Backstory:
Phil Collins would play a concert on May 4th, 1990, in The Netherlands (in Ahoy, Rotterdam, to be precise). May 4th is Second World War commemoration day in The Netherlands, kind of a holy day, and in the early nineties, this concert caused a bit of a stir in the Dutch press. Van Kooten & De Bie, the best Dutch satirists of that age and of my lifetime probably, made this little sketch about it. I have a vivid memory of it, because I was just becoming a Genesis fan, in an age that the band were loathed by anyone in the more serious artistic and intellectual press, yet these heroes of the Dutch intellectual class held Phil Collins up in a positive light. Looking back now, the sketch is very funny, with this charicature of an old conservative hardliner, perpetually and superficially grieved by everything.

Some inside jokes:
- Mr. Bussink mentions a couple of Dutch slang words to show that he is "modern". These are turbo (fast), depri (depressed), aso (anti-social) and homo (gay). This kind of shorthand-dutch had a name in the 80s: Turbotaal. Homo is not really part of that shorthand, and that is the pun here, it shows that mr. Bussink just repeats some things he hears on tv, and just mixes everything up that he doesn't understand about our age and that scares him. A really intelligent joke if you get it.
- He mentions the Residentie Orchestra, one of the renowned national Orchestras in The Netherlands. He mentions the conductor Bernard Vonk, which is in fact a mixup of the names of the chief conductor of the Residentie Orchestra of that time - Hans Vonk - and the most famous Dutch conductor of the 20th century - Bernard Haitink. Again: this shows that mr. Bussink doesn't really know what he is talking about, and more deeply, doesn't really like classical music enough to show a real interest in it. He just uses it to be able to be grieved.
