Their garage-rock single Talk Talk was a Top 20 hit for the band. I think more bands need to start wearing capes, medallions and turtlenecks again. The lead singer Sean Bonniwell died on December 20th of lung cancer. Check out this awesome video of the band’s hit:

Andrew Ahrendt feat Monica Lauer Bukkake Button NSFW

I found this disturbing video in my inbox today from Detroit filmmaker Colin Duerr for Andrew Ahrendt’s song Bukkake Button featuring Monica Lauer.
Be forewarned, while there’s no nudity, it’s pretty much NSFW & there’s blood coming (ahem) out of inappropriate places. Also featured is musician/smut peddler John Davies (Superbitch Magazine, Beaver Shoot) and Suicide Girl Annisa. Check out more of Colin’s vids here.

I met Diego Lana in a bathroom in London while on a rock ‘n’ roll history bus tour of the city. He didn’t know much English, but it was far superior to my Spanish. I guess most people that play music can spot other musicians because he could tell that I play, and vice versa. I couldn’t understand much of what he said in English but he handed me a promo copy of his band’s CD, Ultramandaco – Fin. After coming home and finally taking a listen to album, I’ve got to say, it’s pretty awesome. The sounds mix Latin American traditional pop with tinges of Sloan, Queens of the Stone Age, and Elvis Costello. And the production is pretty damn great. Their webpage doesn’t really have much more info, or even if they’re playing, touring, etc. But it’s nice to get your hands on rare album like this.
Columbus, Ohio Sunrise
Wisconsin Penis Mitten
Our Midwest friends in Wisconsin think that their state resembles a mitten like the “Great Lake State”, Michigan.
I disagree. It thought it was more like a mitten for the Elephant Man. But then I figured it out.
When you turn it sideways, it all makes sense.
Drive Movie Scorpion Jacket Halloween Costume
I went as Ryan Gosling’s character Driver from the movie Drive this year for Halloween. I made the jacket, stitched the quilting and embroidered the scorpion on the back. I’ll be selling it on eBay along with the props probably tomorrow. Other small props needed:
- Leather Banded Watch
- White Henley shirt
- Lucky Rabbit’s Foot Keychain
- Wood Handled Hammer
- Taupe Boots
- Toothpicks
- Tortoise Shell Sunglasses
+Bonus points for having a muscle car.
European Street Art & Graffiti by Invader | Clet Abraham & More
I snapped these while on vacation in Poland, London, Ireland and France in October. Some artists spotted were Invader & Clet Abraham. Very cool paste-ups, a crocheted bicycle, and random other pieces found. I was surprised at the lack of street art in London. I guess that has to do with the CCTV’s on every single inch of the country.
