Ha Ha Got Me!
I was importing my CD of Trio tonight. When I played it back on my iPod I was convinced it had imported incorrectly. Song #4 (Out In The Streets) kept skipping. So… I re-imported it. Same thing! Ha! So I checked YouTube to see how it was suppose to sound, and guess what? It’s suppose to skip. Got me! Great CD by the way, if you’ve never heard it.

Kiss A Wookie
This perhaps is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen on YouTube… thanks Kim!

UPDATE: From TheDude:
it turns out that this kid did not actually write or record the song; he just lipsynched it. The kid wasn’t trying to fool anyone. He actually gives credit to the band on the actual YouTube page where he posted the video, but it’s just kind of a bummer to find out that there wasn’t some uber-genius child prodigy behind it. Anyway, the song is by an a cappella group called Moosebutter. Check out the update on this page: http://www.toplessrobot.com/2008/11/the_greatest_john_williams_tribute_of_all_time.php
Bummer, that takes all the fun out of it.
Frampton Came Alive!
Just got back from the Peter Frampton concert at the Ohio State Fair. Great show! A few surprises… he did all the “Talk Box” stuff you would expect, but his cover of “Black Hole Sun” by Soundgarden was phenomenal! The song “Float” off his latest album “Fingerprints” was very interesting. An ethereal feel to it. And for the first few songs of the concert I swear I knew the bass player, but couldn’t place him. Turns out it is John Regan of Frehley’s Comet fame. His drummer is Dan Wojciechowski who I guess is from Columbus. Both the rythm guitarist and keyboardist were excellent as well. Good concert. Professional, tight, and some surprises.
