Rothbury!
We have yet to see a lineup for Lollapalooza or Rothbury so it’s hard to make a decision.
I can only go to one this year so that is going to make it extra tough for me.

Hipster Covers Biggie’s “Hypnotize”
To be honest I wouldn’t have been mad at this project if that dude wasn’t in the video. The concept is cool but am I the only one who feels this way? Someone help me out.
M.I.A., Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil’ Wayne and T.I. – Swagga Like Us 2009 Grammy Performance
Damn, M.I.A. is HUGE.
I’m surprised that baby didn’t pop out during the performance.
It’s a Movement

I know others have posted this song/video but the CDQ just popped up so I figured I would throw it up as well.
I also learned over at the Weed Steeler Blog that Cam’ron is working on a new sitcom that he calls a “Black Curb Your Enthusiasm.” Can’t wait to see that…
SNL – I’m On A Boat feat. T-Pain
T-Pain is a huge guilty pleasure of mine. Everything he does is gold in my eyes.
This is one of the better SNL videos they’ve done in a long time. My favorite is still the Maroon 5 one where he was like “Iran so far….”
Anti-Theft Lunch Bags
I know I have seen this on someone’s blog but I can’t remember who/where…
So thanks to _________ for the idea.

Oren Lavie – Her Morning Elegance
From the album The Opposite Side of the Sea, to be released March 2009, The song “Her Morning Elegance”. This beautiful video captures this song and brings it to life and is one of the best time lapse projects I have ever seen.
I’m not saying the song is dope but the video definitely is.
The Grip Was Hibernating This Weekend
Because I was busy getting engaged.
Obviously I’ll have a ton of pictures and video posted later.

7 Year Old Drugged Up After Dentist ***REMIX ADDED***
This video was shot shortly after he had a tooth removed. The 15 second mark is pure gold.
Dad should have said something like, “That’s what Woodstock felt like.”
Thanks to Cashola (Get Right Blog) for the video.

P. Diddy Confused By $1 Bill
Diddy was sitting courtside at Madison Square Garden when the picture was taken which makes me think he paid some corny dude to take it. Either way, I find a dollar bill in my wallet and I’m excited. Diddy probably hasn’t spent a $1 bill in 10 years. I bet he puts his gum into it and tosses it out the window.
Thanks to John Paul King for the flick.

Fleet Foxes – Mykonos
I’m pretty sure this fan made and not an official video but I’m a sucker for Fleet Foxes and it’s been a slow, slow day.
If you don’t already have the album, get it.
I Promise This Is The Last Stanky Leg Post Ever
Unless Eminem or Jay-Z jump on the track for a remix or something, but I doubt that will ever happen. This is the ***OFFICIAL*** video and I think I have about one more week before I begin to hate the song.
This one goes out to all the stanky leg fans out there.
David Lee Roth – Runnin’ With The Devil Soundboard
Soundboards are awesome. One day I will upgrade to a blog that allows me to embed flash and the world will never be the same again. For now you’ll just have to click on the image to have yourself a howling good time. Thanks to Nat Drive for the link! Click here or click on the picture for the website.
My personal favorite is “OH GOD I’M RUNNIN AAAAAAHHHHH YAAAHHHH!” followed by “GODDAMNIT BABY YOU KNOW I AIN’T LYIN’ TO YA I’M ONLY GONNA TELL YOU ONE TIIIIIIIIMEAAAHHHHYEEAAAHHHHH!”
Skateistan – Afghanistan’s First Skateboarding School

For over two years Oliver Percovich has worked to create Skateistan, Afghanistan’s first skateboarding school. Many of these children have never had the opportunity to play a sport. I think this is an amazing way for someone to make an impact on the community.
Thanks to Kareem for the link.

Van Halen Asteroids Game
I used to play these online games all the time and this is a great example of a stupid yet addicting game.
Click here or click on the picture to play the game. Thanks to Scotty C-Block for the link.
Animal Collective – Leaf House (Adulture Remix)

Adulture was kind enough to send over a new remix of Animal Collective’s “Leaf House.”
Also check out Adulture opening up for Diplo at Skully’s in April.
Animal Collective – Leaf House (Adulture Remix)
Better Than Ice Cream, Vol. 9 by Wes K.

Aaron Behrens and Thomas Turner are the minds behind Austin based Ghostland Observatroy. A throwback to 80′s synth rock and electro punk, Ghostland brings to the stage a sound like no other. With their first release delete. delete. i. eat. meat in 2005 and Paparazzi Lightning coming close to a year later, Ghostland made waves on the national music scene with appearances on Austin City Limits and Conan. They continue to push the musical envelope with their 2008 release of Robotique Majestique. Musical influences such as Bowie, Laurent Garnier, LCD and the Clash keep their sound new yet vintage.
When asked by Spin magazine what makes this duo work, their reply was, “We like they way each other look naked.” As talk turns to their onstage demeanor, the cape weilding Turner and swaggering Behrens encourage audience members to “lose their egos” when dancing at shows. My only hope is that they’ll make a stop in C-Bus sometime soon! The two songs below include one from both “Paparazzi Lightning” and “Robotique Majestique”.
Ghostland Observatory – Sad Sad City
Ghostland Observatory – Dancing On My Grave
Homage Tees Spotted
If anyone has more information or pictures of any other Homage sightings please let me know. To me they are kind of like Ohio’s state bird, the cardinal: rare and elusive. But they aren’t birds, they are T-shirts.
You know where to find me.
