Desolation Show

Photobucket


So My Chemical Romance did a cover recently of Bob Dylan's classic "Desolation Row" for the Watchmen movie. Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9VaVukLtfg

It combines two of my favorite things, Watchmen and Bob Dylan covers, with two of my least favorite things, bad Bob Dylan covers and emo's pretending to be punk. You can guess how I feel about the the band as a whole.

In other news, I hear Pride, Prejudice, and Zombies ( http://www.amazon.com/Pride-Prejudice-Zombies-Classic-Ultraviolent/dp/1594743347 ) is supposed to be pretty good. I'd like to read the original before I jump into this parody though. Any Jane Austin fans out there? Is this advisable, or should I just jump right into the parody and satisfy my lust for acts of atrocious gore committed by the undead? Feed back, please!

Butch "The Fonz" Vig



(Click Image to View in Full)
Well it's official. The new Green Day album sucks royally, and I'm very very disappointed in Butch Vig for having been a part of it. I think this is the first album he's produced that I haven't liked. It just sounds like a rehash of American Idiot, which itself, felt like a Tommy rip off with I hate George Bush/ America undertones. Granted, their is nothing wrong with hating on ol' G Dabya, but you can only beat a dead horse so much before even the most liberal of us lose interest.

Boy do I miss the days when Green Day was still a relatively punk band. Dookie is still on of my favorite albums of all time.

Conservatives, the Other Other White Meat

Today I want to plug one of my favorite comics on Drunk Duck.com, Faults. The art is fun to look at and it almost always makes me laugh. If those aren't good enough reason to like a web-comic and want to share it with the world then there is something seriously wrong with America... you know, besides the fact that at least a quarter of the population takes Rush Limbaugh seriously...

Check out the comic here: http://www.drunkduck.com/Faults/

Have a great weekend all!

Here's the Weds comic I promised. Late as usual. =P

If you haven't heard Anarchy Burger by the Vandles yet, I feel profoundly sorry for you and the life you have hither to been leading. I save you from your life of pain with this video featuring the song (and some pretty decent skateboarding too)

Josh Homme Has Great Hair

I meant to get this one up on Friday, but it didn't happen. Ah well. I'll have something up on Weds to make up for it.

How did all your weekends go out there? It rained all Fri and Sat and then was nice and sunny on Sunday (how fitting), so over all it was pretty nice. I've always been a fan of rainy whether though, so it worked for me.

See you Weds!

Dream Bubble



(Click Image to View)
I'm actually a fan of both songs, but shhhh, don't tell Glen that. He might quit the strip.

Now granted, Dream Police isn't bubble gum pop, but Cheap Trick, in general, even if most of Cheap Trick's songs are. On that premise, you could make the generalization that ALL of Cheap Trick's songs are bubble gum pop. That of course would be pretty arbitrary, but Nic does it anyway, and I feel like it works.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice accuracy for humor. Sometimes... sometimes... some dimes...
