I fear this to be the future of Fast Food much like the 3-D Hologram will be the future of live entertainment. This is the Tupac Hologram of snack foods. The scariest thing about this is after some searching on the "internets" I was unable to locate any ingredient list for this. But I'm sure everything is safe. How dangerous can a Burger made out of a mysterious white powder be? At least Pink Slime had some real meat in it. I'm guessing it's OK since Playdo was a staple of my early childhood diet. Look how well I turned out!
This may be a clue we received nearly 40 years ago.
A couple of days ago I came across this video. I was thoroughly amazed:
The video is a viral ad for the MusicBunk App. While I don't condone the mistreatment of vinyl(even the Streisand Catalogue) I was amazed at what these guys were doing. Our Video Guy Andrew Barban walked in while I was watching it for the 20th time and immediately claimed it was fake much like the majority of Youtube trolls did in the comment section. I refused to believe it. Call it an idealistic hope coming from a soul crushed by the stresses of modern life in a First World Society. Or I'm just a gullible Stoner. Andrew and I decided to test some of these moves with some records we had around the office:
4. Scenes of Road Cases with the bands name being loaded into the venue.
5. Shots of the crowd to make it look like it's comprised mostly of hot chicks shaking their tits.
This video has all of those and so much more. With an inspired performance by Danny McBride(East Bound And Down, Tropic Thunder, Up In The Air) as Uber-Roadie "Sebastian" capturing the subtleties of a full time disciple of "The Road". Especially that scene where he pees in the Lemonade dispenser.
The D are playing at The Bank Of America Pavilion in Boston on 7/2. If you're looking for a backstage pass or a child support payment, Sebastian will be lurking in the shadows.
His name is Davis Didinato and he has been shredding up his Guitar since Yesterday at 6 P.M. He has only been allowed one 5 minute break an hour. It's amazing how good he still sounds. He's probably more lucid than Keith Richards ever was while playing. If he makes it to 7pm tonight he sets a new World Record. The current record is 24 hours, 18 minutes. Good luck, Shredmeister General!
Following in the footsteps of Albert Brooks and Robert Smigel, Andy Samberg and...that other guy celebrate their 100th Digital Short with all the best..and Justin Bieber.
Tom Morello takes The Nightwatchman show on the digital road with this Documentary directed by Bobby Roth(Lost, Prison Break, Fringe, Beverly Hills 90210). The film features live performances and interviews and can be adapted to 42 different languages here. It also has introductions from Serj Tankian of System Of A Down(Armenia) and Nuno Bettencourt of Extreme(Portugal).
This performance was supposed to be shown during Season Three of Chapelle's Show. But there was no third season of the amazing Chapelle's Show because Dave Chapelle realized he didn't want to be a celebrity anymore and bravely cut the chord on fame. The show's Co-Creator, Neil Brennan, in tribute to the late Adam Yauch who passed last Friday, uploaded this 2004 performance on New York's East River to Youtube. It has been taken down a few times by Viacom so apologies if it's not here. If it is, enjoy. It looks like all involved did. That's what made the Beastie Boys great. Taking great Joy in what they were doing and passing it on through their work. It's hard to actually call it "work" because they made it look so easy and fun.
Travel well MCA...
5/8/12 Edit: If you tried to hit the video below then you've seen Viacom's lawyers got to this one too. This link should work. Hit play and watch your back.
P.S. Excellent use of Public Transportation for dramatic effect.
The Vision seems a little miffed about not being part of the team for the first Blockbuster. And I agree! He's a lot cooler than Hawkeye. I mean what would you rather see? A "Synthezoid" who can summon ambient solar power into a laser through a jewel in his forehead? Or a guy who's really good at Archery? I wonder if the other Avengers ask The Vision to warm up their Lean Quisine Dinners with his Microwave Ray?
First off, Cinco De Mayo is NOT Mexican Independence Day. It actually commemorates the Battle Of Puebla where the Mexican Army, defying great odds, defeated the French. Mexican Independence day is actually on September 16th. But I'm sure that won't stop you from doing a few Tequila shots. Which is what they don't do in Mexico. They don't even celebrate Cinco De Mayo there. Again, that won't stop us from drinking like tourists. Just don't do it like this kid:
Rolling Stone has an exclusive stream for a new Eddie Vedder solo tune called "Skipping". You can listen to the stream here. It's a mellow little ditty with Ed's daughter Olivia making an appearance at the beginning of the song.
It's going to be on the "Every Mother Counts" charity compilation which benefits the organization of the same name. Some of the other artists on the cd include Bono and The Edge, Beck, The Dave Matthews Band, and many others. It's currently available only at Starbuck's.
I'm pretty sure this hasn't been done before. I mean, there have been some "Crap" Zombie movies made but this HAS to be a first. Not only do these Zombies eat Human Flesh but they also throw poo and attack you ass first!
The Plot: Four School Girls go fishing in a river that is infected with a Tapeworm parasite. By eating the fish they hope to infect themselves with the Tapeworm so they can stay skinny and beautiful.
George Romero must be kicking himself. Plus, it not only features the amazing talents of Asana Momoru but also the enigmatic "Danny" who looks like a Japanese Ramone. I'm sure this won't be playing near a theater near you.
