I recently dug up a copy of my Network CD from back in 2003. If you don’t know, The Network (aka Network!), was a six piece new-wave band consisting of Green Day and some friends wearing masks and silly costumes. It was like, seriously weird. Each band member had a pseudonym and a background story.… Continue reading Remember when Green Day wore masks?

Kids + Drugs= Funny but a little sad too…
Here’s a video (thanks Videogum!) of a kid all drugged up after oral surgery. I’m assuming he’s on laughing gas, and for those of you who have never had it, it’s crazy. This video is equal parts hilarious, sad and hilarious again. High point (no pun intended): “I have two fingers!” Low point: “Why is… Continue reading Kids + Drugs= Funny but a little sad too…

New Arctic Monkeys: “Crying Lightning” Live Video
Arctic Monkeys are currently working on a new album that is apparently “78 percent” done. They performed “Crying Lightning,” a new track supposedly from the album at Sydney’s Big Day Out Fest recently.

Julian Velard covers Katy Perry’s “Hot N Cold”
YES! New Yorker Julian Velard is finally making a name for himself, and rightfully so. I’ve been following him for several years now, as he is a friend of a friend (thanks Moshe).

Lost Season 5 Music Video: The Fray – “You Found Me”
Not exactly a video I’d expect from Lost considering they’ve used popular music like once on the show (Damien Rice’s Cannonball in the first season), but nevertheless this should get you excited whether you’re watching the premiere RIGHT NOW or are going to watch soon. I don’t feel like providing the mp3 because you can… Continue reading Lost Season 5 Music Video: The Fray – “You Found Me”

OMG Microsoft, please stop advertising forever: “The Songsmith Ad”
This hot item has been popping up on YouTube and YES. It apparently is a real, honest-to-God advertisement that Microsoft PAID MONEY FOR. Some executives saw this and said “Wow! What a great idea! Lets give gobs of money to the jackass [genius?] who made this!” Believe it or not, there are more, shorter ads… Continue reading OMG Microsoft, please stop advertising forever: “The Songsmith Ad”
