Spin Doctors: If The River Was Whiskey

I can’t get enough of the new Spin Doctors blues album, “If the River Was Whiskey!” It’s so damn good. I love everything about it. I love the Spin Doctors. I LOVE the blues. I love the raw energy on it. I love that they didn’t overdub tracks—what they recorded is what you get. It adds a little character and feeling to the recording. Most music nowadays is so Continue reading
Two Chips Animated Short
I love this! Adam Patch’s wife had a little bit of wine and then told a “corny” joke. So he made an animated short of it. I only wish I had thought of this a long time ago. I do believe there are many good drunken stories from Peter, Peter, Crunk and Num Num that might need to be retold this way very soon. Yes, indeed.

Such a unique sound and style. His guitar strumming was just so intense. Continue reading

After seeing Ty Mattson’s amazing Homeland project, I decided to create a record for each Bluth member, with titles and songs relating to their character. Continue reading

Actresses Without Teeth

If you haven’t stumbled upon Actresses Without Teeth yet, you’re missing out. One of the funniest memes out there. It’s right up there with the classics…Chicks with Buscemi Eyes, Teenage Mutant Ninja Noses, Moustair, and Celebrities Without Eyebrows. Some of these images are photoshopped pretty poorly, but the good ones are great! Continue reading
