Cold War Kids @ Sunset Junction...

....so this blog post is a little late, but I can't stress enough how GOOD Cold War Kids are live! You can just tell these guys are buddies who probably sit around and drink and smoke a lot and just jam.

Sickboy

"Silence in the Conversation"

Director went off the idea of two of the band members being identical twins, hence the photocopy look, pretty darn sweet.

Espresso Depresso

Funny animation short from 1997. Taking it back to the old school when speciality coffee was just starting to get cool

Randoms!

Work can be very amusing most of the time since I'm in a creative environment. A few of my favorite quotes from meetings today:

"His helicopter broke, he won't back from shooting until tomorrow."

"They just want the face to melt, they don't want any parts falling off"

A few other things:

I have a dope t-shirt on today



Myspace profile trackers: creepy for all parties involved. Viewer is made to feel like a stalker rather than a curious. User insecure? self absorbed? combination?

We Used To Be Friends

Dandy Warhols - We Used To Be Friends
This is one of those songs that I always get excited about when comes on the shuffle and I turn it up wayyy loud and anytime I make a fun playlist it's on there. I don't know if it's all the "ah's" or just how fucking cool Courtney's voice is (yes, his name is Courtney) , or maybe it's because they're from Portland, but the Dandy Warhols are one of my favorite bands of all time.


This is a hilarious puppet video set to the song:



I believe this is the actual video:



You pick your favorite. I'm going with the puppets.

Here are the lyrics to sing along!

A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again a greeting I send to you,
Short and sweet to the soul I intend.

A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh

Come on now, honey,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, sugar,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when.

It's something I said, or someone I know.
Or you called me up, maybe I wasn't home.
Now everybody needs some time,
And everybody knows
The rest of it's fine
And everybody knows that.

Come on now, sugar,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, honey,
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
Just remember me when.

We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends, hey hey.

A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh

A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again, a greeting I send to you,
Short and sweet is all I intend.

We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends.A long time ago
We used to be friends,
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh

DeBlob

I would buy a wii for the this new game, DeBlob, alone.
In a world that has been sucked of it's color, DeBlob, goes on a bring back the color mission, fighting enemies that look similar to Teddy Troopers and other bad guys looking to drain the color and vibrancy out of life.

Check out the trailer:
