I just stumbled upon this, and it is too cool to not share:
Tom Waits and Kool Keith (aka Dr. Octagon, aka Dr. Dooom). The music is incredible, and the visuals certainly do not disappoint. I’ve done the hard work – you owe it to yourself to hit play.
An mp4 is available for download from BoingBoing.
It is no big secret that The Silence of the Lambs is hands-down one of my favorite movies.
A few years ago I stumbled across two different “fan offerings” that I instantly connected with – Silence! The Musical and The Greenskeepers song, “Lotion”:
Yeah, right up my alley.
Well, as much as I like that video, someone recently [...]
I know things have been sparse here, but I’ve been busy. Anyway, before I go off on a tangent, I would like to invite you to
The 2009 March of the St. Anthony Ramblers
Drinks and breakfast at 9, march at 10. We are again fortunate to have Panorama Brass Band tour with us throughout the day, [...]
Well, I have listened to the new Metallica album: Death Magnetic. And it is good (or at least a gargantuan improvement). It would appear that they have made a complete 180° from The Thing That Should Not Be (aka St. Anger).
My friend Paul had this to say though and I must admit I agree:

Things are looking up, my friends, acquaintances, search engines / indexers, and lurkers.
Guitar Hero, it would seem, has the potential to slowly make the world a better place. Right in front of me, sits Guitar Hero I, II, a PS2, and a guitar controller, all courtesy of The Other Will Who Rides Bikes And Works [...]
I ran across this, and found it interesting: Mux Tapes. Create an account, upload up to 12 or so songs, and share it with people. I took a sampling of what has lately been in heavy rotation, and ordered it alphabetically.
Here’s mine, so go forth and enjoy.
And if you create one, let me know [...]
Sonny and I are going to Planet Houston™ to see Dethklok play with Soilent Green on July 4. Metal.
You are cordially invited to join the St. Anthony Ramblers on Mardi Gras Day, the Fifth of February, 2008. Should you grace us with your presence as we walk the streets of the Neighborhoods Treme, French Quarter, and Faubourg Marigny, we shall revel together and spread much merriment with the music of Panorama Brass Band.
Well, it’s safe to say that last night, I had by far the safest house in the Treme / 1st District. I had about 8 on-duty cops in my living room, watching the LSU game.
Clint came by my house this morning because I had recorded his performance onto my computer. I gave him a nice, [...]
Tonight, my good friend Clint Maedgen of Liquidrone, The New Orleans Bingo! Show, and guest singer for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band (for three years now) will be singing the National Anthem for the BCS Championship game tonight with the aforementioned jazz band.
The game will air at 6:30PM Central time on FOX – so please [...]
