Buzzcocks!

I love the Buzzcocks! And I always love hearing something by them that I've never heard before. Thanks to the wonders of YouTube, I found this song by accident. They have a great power pop sound, and I love the sloppy little solo that says so much in the middle. I love the way their guitars work together, and how their drummer keeps the good times rolling even while changing moods a couple of times through the song. Judging by how few people have watched this video, it seems like a lost treasure that deserves more attention. So here it is. Pete Shelley at his best!

Health Care Reform!

My friend Kenneth is one articulate fellow. Here is a short video he made which puts that fact into vivid perspective. I agree with him 100%! I love that he linked this video to Sarah Palin's Facebook page!

Peaches Meets Miss Piggy

I love the "Andy Griffith Show" version of this video (see below), but this Muppets version is hilarious! The editing is well done, and the band has always been one of my favorite bands, ever since I saw them play with Alice Cooper on The Muppet Show when they did "School's Out" together when I was but a wee child.

Peaches

Peaches is coming to Philadelphia in November! Yeah!!! My friend Josh and I were lucky enough to catch her in New York City a couple of years ago and she changed my life. The show was incredible. She sings, she changes costumes, she shows her wacky videos, and she even played an electric guitar. Her music is wild, and the topics she chooses to sing about are titillating to say the least. When I found this video, I realized that she is truly a genius. I can't wait to see her at the TLA in November!

Danny Macaskill

This guy is not only amazing, but he inspires me to get up off my ass and do something active and fun for a change. I think I'll dust off my skateboard and go for a ride tonight in honor of this fellow. I also really like the song by Band of Horses. I wish I knew more about them. It's kind of a sad song to pick for such an exciting bunch of action, but I really like the way the shots are all edited to its ups and downs. The song kind of makes me want to cry, but the video makes me want to laugh. Funny how that works.
