Dinosaurs on a spaceship…
So last night I was all “OMG! New Doctor Who! Dinosaurs on a spaceship! Whee!”
This morning I am more “ow, ow, ow, coffee, please give me coffee”. I have a headache and Into Free -Dangan- by the B’z stuck in my head making it even worse. Not as bad as having Immigrant Song stuck in my head because no matter how old and mellow he is now, the Robert Plant inside my head is always really freakin’ loud.
I have a new article on Dragon’s Dogma up over at GamingHUD. (thus explaining the music stuck in my head)
It’s like the ’80s exploding all over my screen…and I can’t look away.
Moving along —
Lots of new stuff up in the sidebar jukebox. I must go find everything Nicki Bluhm has ever recorded and snag it because her voice is amazing. You all pop over and give her a listen. Beautiful, beautiful voice. Her band is the Gramblers and keep wondering if it is some smushing of rambler and gambler or just, you know, a word?
This last vid is for shoreacres from The Task at Hand. It’s The Record Company at this years’ SXSW covering Freddy Cannon’s Tallahassee Lassie. I consider this fair payment for the backwards walking chicken video.

I have been trying to write the review for Blurred, by San Francisco singer/songwriter Alex Wise for a few months now but can’t seem to finish it. This is difficult for me to say but I get about halfway through the process and find myself so homesick I just can’t continue. The past few years have been full [...] - Arc & Stones…

Now that Scooter is back sleeping nights I proclaim this ’dig myself out from under the mountain of un-reviewed music‘ week. Kicking off the week o’reviewing is Arc & Stones, the debut EP from Brooklyn band Arc & Stones. The guys are Dan Pellarin (vocals), Ben Cramer (guitar), Joe Doino (drums) and Eddy Bayes (bass).

So, I was in the mood for some blues and whoosh – blues appeared. Other people get coupons, bills and news updates in the mail while I get blues music. Cool new blues music in the form of the debut release Telegraph Taboo from the Chicago-based band Nick and the Ovorols. This is not a pretty album. The vocals on a few tracks [...] -

OK. Now you never can say I failed to contribute to any post containing the word “dinosaur”. Let’s see if this way of emedding works.

No? OK. How about this?
OK. A plain old link it is!
Velociraptor in Melbourne
And I musn’t forget my manners and forget to say thank you for the T-Lassie. That’s my era, all right. I did a mean bunny hop, as a matter of fact, and this was one of my favs when we’d leave the junior high building, go to the Y for lunch and feed quarters into the juke box so we could dance for a half-hour!
I love that velociraptor video. I kind of expected more people to run when they first got a glimpse of it but maybe in person it didn’t look quite so realistic.
I thought you would like that one. The Record Company is such a great band. Even the new songs they do have a rockabilly sound to them.
