Conan and The White Stripes

Conan O'Brian did his last late night show before moving to a different time. Everyone who really knows me knows I can't get enough of Jack White. For the way his fingers pull off those supernatural guitar riffs, and those wailin' pipes he's got on him. Meg, on the other hand, is a different story. Nonetheless, Conan picked for his last show his favorite band to have on, The White Stripes. The song isn't that great and Meg is well.....Meg, but it's the thought that counts and you can never see too much of The White Stripes.

Radiohead at the Grammy's



I hope you didn't watch the entire grammy's. There was only one redeemable thing about the whole show. So in case you missed it, Radiohead played with the USC marching band performing 15 step. The only negative...is that Colin, Ed and Phil are nowhere to be seen...
Please view it quickly. The Grammy's have been pulling the video from everywhere..

It makes you want to cry


This next post is for a dear friend Aaron who is going through some tough times. After spending 10 wonderful years together, he parted with Martin and Logan this week. They treated each other so well and thought they would be together till the end. But upgrading is a double edged sword. One that twists going in and also out. My only consolation is that Johnny knows your pain, well kinda. We are all here for you. I only wish I could have kept them in the family..

Mates Of State


Back when I was a wee lad of 17 years old a good friend Tom took me under his wing and introduced me to Mates of State for the first time, which he continued to do for years to come. I remember really liking what I heard, but when I bought the new album this past month I was expecting something different. The new stuff is much more mellow and inviting than the old. Or maybe it's just me. Either way, it's worth listening to. Has a good beat to bob your head to in the car. There are too many songs to list. Really, the whole thing is awesome. So slip it in and let me know what you think. The album is called Re-arrange us.
