Cautiously Optimistic Bordering On Really Effing Excited
Ummmmmmmmbest? How did this happen and me not know about it? OK, who can get me one of these posters ASAP? [via goldenfiddle]
How a Web site helped the Bucks acquire an All-Star.
Police force Brendan Benson to play the last half of his Berlin gig acoustically after saying his gig was "too loud".
The Artic Monkeys do something to merit those Oasis comparisons.
Speaking of, Noel must be promoting a new single or something.
Guero remix album tracklisting.
Thank you for setting the record straight. I have problems with that too. Great post.
From today's "Make 'Em Say 'Duh'" newsfile; iPod nano lawsuit will only benefit attorneys.
Hey, I almost forgot! I have a contest for you all. Supergrass just released their latest record, Road to Rouen, and I'm really digging it. To celebrate, I'm giving away the following:
GRAND PRIZE: Limited edition tinymeat ipod case, a copy of Road to Rouen, magnets, pins and a "Kiss of Life" CD single.
Runner Up Prize: a copy of Road to Rouen, magnets, pins and a "Kiss of Life" CD single.
All you have to do is drop me a line and tell me what Supergrass video saw the group imagined as giant muppets. Winner will be announced in two weeks.
To tide you over here are some Supergrass links and videos:
Road to Rouen album website
"St. Petersburg" video Windoze / Real / glorious Quicktime
Finally, here is video of the band performing on Leno.
I also remembered my Forgotten Fovorite today.
Lush: Sweetness and Light (MP3)
I heart Lush and this is one of my favorite songs of theirs. Quoth the bar manager at Saint Ex when I played this last week. "Wait, is this Lush? Fucking Sweet." Indeed. And while we all know Miki was the really, really hot one (I totally have a thing for pink hair), any Lush fan worth their salt knows that Emma wrote the best songs, like "Sweetness and Light" (lyrics). Remember when VW used this in a Jetta ad? This is from the album Gala, which was the band's first three EP's all packaged together. I think Spooky is still my favorite album of theirs. Buy some Lush at Amazon.
My camera shipped last night and travelled from Maspeth, NY to Saddlebrook, NJ to Harrisburg, PA to Laurel, MD in the span of about 15 hours. Unfortunately, it's not scheduled to be delivered until Monday. Oh well.

Hey Kyle, just so you know... your nedstats/webstats4u code is pushing pop-ups, too... same thing it was doing to Frank & I before we pulled them off our sites.
Absolutely ridiculous that they started doing that.

If you love Lush, give Sing Sing props too cuz Emma is an absolute doll and the records are still fab.
