Take a minute to watch someone else’s smooth moves. Then teach everyone at your office how to do the Backwards Swim. We hear it was all the rage.

The Famous Characters are basically pretty poppy. I play guitar in this band. Check out the MySpace page HERE.

All hail Paul Ford! – He did the impossible. He did the unthinkable. He did the why-would-anyone bother?
He downloaded the entire SXSW torrent file which contains more than 48 continuous hours of music, representing 763 different bands (which is less than half the bands that played). Are you beginning to comprehend how ridiculously large the [...]

Just re-visited Nivana’s video for “In Bloom” where it is all retro, Beatles-on-Ed-Sullivan looking.
Great song and fun video. But there is also the Weezer Buddy Holly video where they are rocking for the kids at Arnold’s ala Happy Days. Which came first? Which is better? Who cares, they are both fun [...]

Oh.
Oh. They most certainly did.
How many other bands debut to a full crowd (small bar but, probably 75 people) and have a crowd that begs for an encore even after the singer informs them that they don’t know anymore tunes???
