Visit any of the websites devoted to "They Might Be Giants"
They have an elaborate stage "bit" involving a song they call ShoeHorn With Teeth, the joke of which is that they discuss the glockenspiel at length, even describing their efforts to find a trained glockenspiel player. Then they play the song and the glockenspiel is used to hit one note, twice during the song. The second time its a "designed" cklinker note.
TMBG rocks with all kinds of obscure instrumentation, from clarinet yo accordion to I don't know what all else.
