Good Listening: Special Aimee Mann Holiday Edition

December 21st, 2008 · No Comments

If you’re still searching around a bit for that Xmas spirit, boy do I have something that’s going to help out a lot!
First, a quick flashback to last year’s holidays: Last year’s holiday cheer was provided in my household with the debut of a Christmas album from The Smithereens. You all […]

Some Muppet metal moments you might have missed…

December 10th, 2008 · 4 Comments

Shhhhhh! Don’t be alarmed if you’ve noticed a bit of silence from Matt over the past couple of days, because it seems that he might have been out enjoying life in the “real world!”
Alarming, but true.
Somehow I’ve found the time to check in with you all to share the important stuff: More Muppet […]

Adventures in fun interview parodies - the Van Halen edition

December 5th, 2008 · No Comments

Yesterday’s Youtube fun brought me an isolated DLR vocal track for “Hot for Teacher” which led me to the following bit of Youtube gold - an Eddie Van Halen *ahem* “interview”

Classic.
(p.s. - speaking of isolated DLR tracks - surely you’ve heard this one already.)
I had to see the John Petrucci video referenced in the info […]

Thanksgiving gets Rick Rolled

November 28th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Thanks to my boy, Corey, King of the Rabble Rouser Kingdom for pointing me towards video of this - I had heard about this “very special moment” on this year’s edition of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, but I hadn’t had a chance to Youtube it.
Enjoy it for yourselves - you know what I’m talking […]

Adventures with people that shouldn’t be allowed to comment in press releases

November 20th, 2008 · No Comments

I chuckled when I got an article in my email with the following quote:

“Z104 is leading in the country when it comes to video and digital content,” said Program Director Tias Schuster, explaining why Z104 was chosen first. “We get so many hits in this market, and with so much content on our site, we […]

New adventures in cheap packaging - The Police

November 13th, 2008 · 6 Comments

I went to Best Buy last night in search of the new Eric Johnson live DVD Anaheim. No dice on that, so I took a quick look to see if Best “sometimes we stock vinyl” Buy might by chance have the vinyl edition of the new Mudcrutch live EP.
Again, denied.
One newly released […]

Because everything is funnier with Muppets

November 10th, 2008 · No Comments

I was cracking up at the end of the day when I saw Mel’s Tweet with the link to a Pulp Fiction Muppet mash-up.

Now that’s good, but I also love the Muppetized Blair Witch Project video, which is proof that you can make everything better by adding Muppets!

Two thumbs WAY up!

new Shiny Toy Guns album - a quick thought

October 23rd, 2008 · 1 Comment

Listening to the new Shiny Toy Guns album Season of Poison, which comes out November 4th.
The rap in album opener “When Did This Storm Begin”

reminds me of this

Overall, album sounds pretty good, although I don’t like it as much as the last album.
It wraps up nicely with “Frozen Oceans.”

And by the way kids, Season of […]

I would like to thank the lord below….

On this week’s Californication, Becca volunteered to say grace at dinner, and as soon as that happened, you knew it was going to be interesting.

I’ve talked about this elsewhere, but Becca’s character is SO awesome - I think young Madeleine Martin has a long acting career ahead of her.
So many great lines in this week’s […]
