Good things are going on, work is going well. I’m working hard getting my team up to speed. Trying new ways to innovate our processes. Ashley, Shannon and I are moving soon to a much bigger place. Hopefully we’ll be able to actually have people over now. Exciting!
I’ll post more details soon.
First up I’ve got some kickin’ vintage footage of the B-52’s in 1978 performing “Rock Lobster”. Thanks to Boing Boing for posting this. I’d embed it, but unfortunately it’s been disabled. You can see it here. Makes me miss playing music. They’ve got quite a few other videos of the B-52’s on there if you’re interested. I also dug up a great collection of other vintage stuff, like The Buzzcocks:
some Wall of Voodoo
and Joey Ramone covering “What a Wonderful World”
Egads, links abound. Just for the hell of it, read the Wikipedia article on CBGB’s
I don’t care if it rains and freezes
‘Long as I got my plastic Jesus
Sittin’ on the dashboard of my car.
Comes in colors pink and pleasant
Glows in the dark ’cause it’s iridescent
Carry it with you if you travel far.So get yourself a sweet Madonna
Dressed in rhinestones sittin’ on a
pedestal, of abalone shell.
Going eighty I ain’t scary
’cause I got the Virgin Mary
Assuring me that I won’t go to hell.
Definitely one of my new favorite movies, this had some how escaped my notice for the past 29 years. Mind the audio, it’s a little loud.
