A Letter

Dear Los Angeles Lakers,

You guys are awesome. No doubt. My love for the team is so strong that I even parade around public wearing a bright gold hat with your insignia on it. I was just wondering though...can you please stop having games that put me on the brink of a nervous breakdown.

Your #1 fan,
John

Just a thought

Why do horror films nowadays have the word "THE" as the first word in the title.

A few examples: The Ring, The Eye, The Grudge, The Shining.

What makes "THE" so scary. So ominous really?

It got me thinking.

Coming Summer 2009.

THE PIZZA.

Wow.

Scary huh?

No Age @ the Los Angeles Central Library



Check out this interview that I did with Los Angeles' No Age. It was conducted at the Los Angeles Central Library in Downtown LA for the music website Ground Control Magazine


And in case you didn't know by now: No Age are really cool dudes. Their new album Nouns is eggecellent.

P.S.

Happy Memorial Day

Go eat a ton of BBQ.

And if you're bored watch The Andromeda Strain on A&E

I probably won't.

But you should.

It looks kinda cool.

Nuclear attacks I think.

Real World: Hollywood

It pains me to say this:

I adore Real World: Hollywood

I"M FULLY ENTHRALLED.

Indiana Jones IV + New Ratatat = Thoughts

i saw Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skullz last night. The one thing that I learned most about the film was this: if there so happens to be a nuclear attack, don't worry. As long as there's a refrigerator (lead casing...I think it was) and a gopher nearby... you're going to be okay.

I also heard a lot of the new Ratatat album today. Ratatat being the duo that makes those cool video game sounds that often sound like hip hop beats. Also according to Wikipedia...they're from Brooklyn. [Writer's disclosure: One of my favorite words to text on my phone is Ratatat] Anyways the new album called LP3 is really interesting and when I say interesting, I mean pretty disappointing. They've abandoned what made them so great (mainly the guitars) and replaced it all those weird instruments that Mozart and Bach used to play (you know like a piano). I can only describe this new shift in sound as forgetting to put your favorite Nintendo cartridge in. Instead you put in your mother's favorite new age CD. LP3 sadly belongs in the bommer music file for 2008 (right up there with Gnarls Barkeley, Spiritualized, Weezer and the My Morning Jacket record).

Atleast their new video is pretty* awesome



OOHH an explosion.

* is saying "pretty" after an adjective a bad thing?
