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
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 […]
Roy Orbison – The Last Concert (in Cleveland) – Itunes Exclusive Release
I can still remember picking up the morning paper as a kid, and reading that Roy Orbison had died. I cut the article out of the paper, and was stunned that one of my favorite artists was suddenly gone. I was a bit of a late comer to Orbison’s music and while I was aware […]
Documentary, Documentary – Cheech and Chong + Radio Daze on PBS
I had the day off on Monday – something that I really didn’t brag about in advance, because I value my safety….can’t have any of my fellow friends or co-workers after me to kick my ass, ya know? But yes, it was the glorious 5 day weekend that is coming to a very sad conclusion […]
Adventures in Madonna cover songs – The “dude sings a Madonna song” edition
So I’m on Youtube searching to see if there might be any live video of Patti Rothberg performing “Hard Times” from her latest album Double Standards…and I come across some video of Patti performing live at Madonnathon 2007 in New York City. The title alone, makes me want to move to NYC! And then I […]
Spending another Sunday morning with the Counting Crows
I’d like to start this particular post off with a plug for Mel, who takes a look at the pros and cons of long distance relationships via a two-parter post on her blog. Oh, the paragraphs I could dedicate to the subject…. We’re going to talk some Counting Crows in a second, but here’s a […]
Siskel and Ebert review Better Off Dead
While assembling my next post, I came across video on Youtube of Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reviewing Savage Steve Holland’s Better Off Dead at the time of it’s original release in 1985. I guess I’m not surprised that they hated it, and it’s entertaining to watch them bash a movie that is now considered […]
The many faces of Courtney Love
I could probably start a separate blog dedicated to the frequent blog dispatches from everyone’s favorite crazy blonde this side of Anne Heche, Courtney Love. While I’m not sure that Courtney has ever done the naked dazed Anne Heche street walk of shame, I’m pretty sure she’s done everything else, and I love her for […]
Thanksgiving gets Rick Rolled
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 […]
Because everything is funnier with Muppets
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!
