Kinky Sex & Nudity

okay, so this journal has neither, but something almost as good. One of my college friend's band is coming to Buffalo this Friday at Mohawk Place.

They are called the Spinto Band and are mmm, mmm, pop rock goodness. You should check them out (as I am not in Buffalo, I have to drive 1.5 hours to see them on Saturday in Western MA).

And on top of it all - they are (e:twisted) approved

Gnarls Barkley Video

So, I had commented on this in but I am so obsessed with it, it deserves its own post. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend that you check out the Gnarls Barkley Video for Crazy. It is one of the best videos (for a really good song) I have seen in a long time. It is a series of Rorschach inkblots with images of the band among other things interwoven into them. Here are a few samples:

You can watch it at overdrive.mtv.com. Click on "Search Music Videos" and search for Gnarls Barkley. This does require internet explorer and windows media player and it is a bit moody so beware. You also can download it here but the quality isn't as good . Eitherway, you should check it out. It is Craaaazzzyyy

Brush with Future Fame

So, you know how you have that friend that has the best chance of being famous. Well, mine is one step closer to being there. Nick Krill is one of my friends from undergrad, who hung out in my room constantly freshman year, eventually moving in next door with one of my freshman roommates (Dum) sophomore year. He is in a band called the Spinto Band and they recently released an album . They are a really good band. (My favorite song is "Late") and lately they have been starting to get into the media, Spin has done a few blurbs on them as openers for concerts. They got to the point that MSNBC has written a review of them . I know MSNBC doesn't carry a lot of street cred in the music industry but that is still pretty cool.

Riding the coattails of others fame to nowhere,

Wolf at the Door

Ugh, this simulation is sucking my life away. I will give more details at a later date. Just found out a friend from school is getting married. Exciting but I don't think I can pull off getting to the wedding. Any way. I really love the Radiohead song "Wolf at the Door" It ihas such a great feeling and rhythm. Here are the Lyrics:

drag him out the window
dragging out your dead
singing i miss you
snakes and ladders
flip the lid
out pops the cracker
smacks you in the head
knifes you in the neck
kicks you in the teeth
steel toe caps
takes all your credit cards
step up get the gunge
get the eggs
get the flan in the face
the flan in the face
the flan in the face
dance you fucker dance you fucker
don't you dare
don't you dare
don't you flan in the face
take it with the love its given
take it with a pinch of salt
take it to the taxman
let me back let me back
i promise to be good
don't look in the mirror
at the face you don't recognize
help me call the doctor
put me inside
put me inside
put me inside
put me inside
put me inside

i keep the wolf from the door
but he calls me up
calls me on the phone
tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
steal all my children
if i don't pay the ransom
but i'll never see him again
if i squeal to the cops

walking like a giant crane and
with my x ray eyes i strip you naked
in a tight little world and are you on the list?
stepford wives who are we to complain?
investments and dealers investments and dealers
cold wives and mistresses.
cold wives and sunday papers.
city boys in 1st class
don't know we're born
just know someone else is gonna come and clean it up
born and raised for the job
oh I wish you'd get up
go over get up go over and turn this tape off.

i keep the wolf from the door
but he calls me up
calls me on the phone
tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
steal all my children
if i don't pay the ransom
but i'll never see him again
if i squeal to the cops

If you ever need a good radiohead site, I think green plastic is the best.
