Let's not monkey around, we'll get straight to the point. If humans go on the town for New Year's, why not chimpanzees? In London anything goes when bunch of the boys whoop it up & then turn to the more aesthetic things of life - a band concert. MSs - Chimpanzees dressed in matching outfits sitting at table, eating fruits including grapes & bananas. 3/4 view MS crowd of children standing behind barrier. Hilarious MSs - Chimpanzees wearing matching outfits & Beatles moptop wigs, playing instruments (drums, guitar, saxophone, piano, trombone) & no-doubt creating an unholy racket. CUs - Chimp playing saxophone, bewildered look in his eyes.
