Tuesday Tunes! Double Feature!

This Thursday I'm going to see COLDPLAY!
I'm really, really excited as they're my favourite band of all time and they have been for quite some time now. I was wondering who'll be opening for them and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. The first band is called Elbow. I've listened to some of their stuff and they seem to be a pretty mellow band with a couple of coldplay-esque songs. Below is the music video for "Forget Myself." It's got some cool old skool Disney style animations.



The other opening act is called Kitty, Daisy, and Lewis. They're a 3-piece sibling act comprising of two sisters (16 and 21) and their brother (19). They've got a classic swing, jump blues, rock n' roll sound. I'm really digging their song "Goin' Up the Country"

Tuesday Tunes! SAY IT!

OBAMA!
The following is a mixed-media stop motion music video and celebration commemorating the election and inauguration of Barack Obama as the forty-fourth president of these United States. Audibly showcasing Adam Freeland's remix of Daft Punk's "Aerodynamic" and the imaginative stylings of forward thinking toy artists Dalek, Bill McMullen and Kubrick to name just a few.

The 86 Rules of Drinking




#11. Unacceptable things to say after doing a shot: Great, now I’m going to get drunk. I hate shots. It’s coming back up.

#18. Always have a corkscrew in your house.

#19. If you don't have a corkscrew, push the cork down into the bottle with a pen.

#38. If you are the bar's sole customer, you are obliged to make small talk with the bartender until he stops acknowledging you. Then you're off the hook. The same goes for him.

#75. Beer makes you mellow, champagne makes you silly, wine makes you dramatic, tequila makes you felonious.

#70. The patrons at your local bar are your extended family, your fathers and mothers, your brothers and sisters. Except you get to sleep with these sisters. And if you're really drunk, the mothers.

#48. Men don't drink from straws. Unless you're doing a Mind or Face Eraser.

#46. After three drinks, you will forget a woman's name two seconds after she tells you. The rest of the night you will call her “baby” or “darling”.
