America’s Favorite Quarterback

I’m not sure how long this will stay up on Youtube, but here is a clip of America’s Favorite Quarterback, Peyton Manning, being his extra duchey self. Many people don’t get to see this side of him and many believed it didn’t exist as he was so cute and funny on SNL and those commercials. Wake up and smell the roses.

From 1994-2005 a band from Little Modesto, CA called Fiver barely made a blip on the Indie radar, but their cd’s are still get a fair amont of spin from me.

Elvis Costello

 

So I had a chance to see one of my hero’s last night at the Ryman Auditorium here in Nashville, and ever since his music has been getting non-stop spin.  So I tought now would be a good time for a Top 5 Elvis Costello cds.  I will get to a show write up in the next day or two.

These cats don’t mess around and if their respetive ball clubs allowed they would be sportin’ the hot fittedz that we have on display for you today.

Nick Thorburn is a cocky SOB

Now I subscribe to the theory that it’s pointless to argue on the small things because those from far away can’t tell who’s who. And it’s fucking petty. But, I just couldn’t resist myself on this one. Furthermore, most people probably don’t even know who this guy is, so why should they care if he’s a cocky bastard. Well I care because of the audacity of his statements and the fact that the indie zines can’t stop gobbling up his garbage. So anyways some background. He’s one of the main figureheads to the bands Unicorns and Islands. Recently Mr. Thornburn spoke with Stereogum about his new album and some band influences on what Stereogum refers to as an interview.
