R U FUCKING KIDDING ME? - Kate Miller Heidke

According to Videogum, this is The World’s First Actually Funny Song About Facebook. I am in complete and total agreement, and just had to walk outside the office to hide an uncontrollable fit of laughter. Which is weird, cause everyone here should get it, cause we’re like, a social media department. But tears, guys. I had tears. Love it:

 

 

 

 

Thank you Kate Miller-Heidke, for ruling so hard.

The Whip

 

Ok, first off, the Whip is HIGHLY underrated.  Honestly, it shocks me that either no one gives enough props to this band, or they don't seem to be getting the respect they deserve.  Yet another one of those bands that should be bigger than they actually are.  (But then again, Continue reading The Whip

Live: I Was Drunk At Simian Mobile Disco

Check his Flickr here.

 

So I'm gonna wing this the best that I can; as I mentioned before, Simian Mobile Disco played an absolutely mindblowing set at Pure in Philly this past Friday... to the best of my knowledge.  I say this because I myself was awash in the venue's generous open bar, free pizza, and some unnecessary personal drama that we won't get into here, heh.

 

...Again, I'm going to wing this the best that I can.  Please feel free to chime in with any excellent moments you have from the show, as my memory is fuzzy at best.… Continue reading Live: I Was Drunk At Simian Mobile Disco

So I'm TOTALLY bummed that I dropped the ball on every single chance I had to see Throbbing Gristle while they were here. But thanks to my obsessive combing of the interwebz and some good friends, I managed to peep some awesomeness in real time AND find enough resources to quench my thirst for the gristle. Check it: Continue reading THROBBING GRISTLE LIVE, 2009: A Rundown

Sublime Reunion (with new singer, duh) - and it’s pretty damn good

 

I'm not REALLY sure how old this info is - the videos go back to October of 08, but I hadn't heard word one about Sublime reuniting until I got back to LA - that was only a month ago. I want tour dates, bitches. I don't even care if it's with a new singer. Which it'd obviously have to be, unless they figured out a way to channel spirits or something.
