Norwegian kid banned from PS3 - drama ensues

Thanks to his parents, this kid is going to grow up to be the next 12 inch spike wearing banshee vocalist fronting a band of zombie vikings raised from the dead wreaking deathly noisy havoc amongst all the blood-stained cave dwellers in the bog.

Melt Banana - Sick Zip Everywhere

the only band I've seen more than five times. i've seen them every year they've come to SF since 2000 - though I have to admit they aren't as much fun as they used to be with getting all weirdly pop-punky... but still amazingly fun!

Morgan Freeman On Black History Month

I don't know about you guys but I appreciate black people and culture. All of my favorite music was copped from a black man take for instance the original dub music which was called "Blue Beat" into the genius that is Lee "Scratch" Perry which was copped by every little white guy with a strat and suit to create shit-ska, or even much before that - Bukka White slapping his steel string guitar which was copped by many a mountain crooner - Can't forget the crazy zany and otherworldly Sun Ra Arkhestra of which many a neo-post-rock project wish and try to copulate; or how about the little-known noise/trance/congotronic Congolese group I rip off a lot named Konono No. 1? And I mean I didn't even begin to speak about Ethiopian music from the 60-70s (check out Ethiopiques or just try on Muhmoud Ahmed - f'n amazing).

But, outside of music even though there has been a black history month for a long ass time now kids just don't understand Dr. King! Listen to his damn speeches, oh young and flighty ones - he didn't just speak about his dreams he spoke about "RADICAL ECONOMIC RECONSTRUCTION"! As history repeats itself it is evident to remember to pay attention to your local black community; they know what is going on!

Animal Collective - My Girls

vairetube, what is the name of the band you're in?

I like this song, I respect Animal Collective for what they do, using the samplers and all but I'm a huge sucker for Noah's (Panda Bear) "solo" stuff much more. That kid has it down. And as far as I know they don't really even consider themselves musicians in the way that they're like - "oh, the next chord is an A minor" which I also find interesting. Lot's of good stuff come from folks with that mindset and some creative flair.

This reminds me of the time I went to LA. The guy showing me around was the son of a major Hollywood ghostwriter but a lot of the kids we hung out with were of the Hollywood bottom-feeding persuasion.

So, we were at this house drinking in some guys yard and I was talking to this punky looking chick and I asked her what she did for a living and she said, "I'm a professional audience member." It just about blew my mind, there are PROFESSIONAL audience members? I had no idea! I think I totally lost it for a minute or two as she continued to explain that she had been fired from shows like Jerry Springer for making faces and such. That was probably my most significant memory of LA besides the great Mexican food and screaming through the Scientology HQ.
