Wednesday, February 27th, 2008Cornelius – The Movie
Friday, February 1st, 2008Hey –
I have a friend. No, really, I do! His name is Giovanny Blanco. He is ver’ talented – in many ways.
He’s a damned good singer and front man.
He’s also a talented filmmaker.
I believe Cornelius: The Movie is his first completed feature. I first shot with him… oh back in 96, I think it were, on a project called Silver Boots which never saw the light of day for a variety of reasons.
Watch the trailer after the jump. (Warning – it’s a 15 mb dl, and may choke your browser for a moment)
Add Cornelius: The Movie to your myspace friends.
Give Gio mad money and props! And Jaswho?, too.
Kicking it Xmas style
Monday, December 17th, 2007UPDATE: I fixed the bloody songs. Why can’t I ever post an MP3 right the first time?Damn it. Chag beat to it.
I’d been planning on posting some favorite Christmas tunes, and he goes and does a whole list. Now that I’ve gotten the hard drive sorted out, I can start mine. I swing different though. I’m going to post 2 songs each day between now and then. At least he didn’t hurt my list all that much.
First I gotta tell you, that the holiday period gets kinda bizarre for me. As a non christian, it galls me that I gotta deal with it. Yet, due to the cultural conditioning we all are subject to, I get all of the pavlovian responses. I want to get and give things, I want to spend time with my loved ones, I want a tree and lights (LOTS of lights!), I am both repulsed and attracted to the crazed level of consumption that occurs this time of year – more this year, because I work in the great temple of unneeded, overpriced, poorly made crap – the Mall.
Which tells you why this list is gonna be heavy on the parody side.
We’ll start with a classic from Bob Rivers – Wreck The Malls. I’d actually forgotten about this until it came up on shuffle at work after close the other night.
Next is , as Chag said, one of the absolute best Christmas songs ever. Known mostly for songs other bands have covered (Mama, weer all crazzee now and C’mon, Feel the Noize), Slade is/was a fantastic band with amazing songwriting chops. Here’s “Merry Christmas, Everybody”.
What are some of your favorites?
