Blogging buddy and occasional Ohio resident Kevin Mason throws me a nice shoutout that documents on video the recent conversation that several of us had on Facebook that started with a simple comment about Kevin’s status update, which had to do with the whole Coldplay/Joe Satriani thing. By the time it was over, the comment […]

Friday Youtube Fun: The Great Big Yes + big big rock star hair
The Lemonheads – The Great Big No I know what you’re thinking. Actually, you might be thinking several things: 1. When did Glen Phillips from Toad The Wet Sprocket sing for The Lemonheads? 2. Wow, was this the week that Evan Dando stayed away from drugs? 3. Did I just have a seizure from the […]
Some Muppet metal moments you might have missed…
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.

The title alone, makes me want to move to NYC! And then I […]
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 […]
Thanksgiving pre-game action to keep your ears busy
My mom asks me what I’m looking forward to about the family Thanksgiving celebration tomorrow. I quickly replied that I was looking forward to arriving at 4pm, and being back home before 6pm. The response on the other end of the phone line as you can probably guess, was silence. Of course I was being […]
Make Your Own R.E.M. Video
R.E.M. have joined the ongoing trend (Barenaked Ladies, NIN, etc.) of offering up high quality workparts for fans to offer their interpretation of the band’s own art. This time, fans have the opportunity to create their own video for the band’s new single Supernatural Serious. After being completely disgusted by the last R.E.M. album “Around […]
