Gwen Stefani’s tour is back out in California, and I just read that No Doubt performed together for two of her shows over the weekend. At least one member of the audience was able to get video of them performing Just a Girl and It’s My Life, and the video was posted on YouTube. The camera is a bit shaky and overexposed throughout, so my guess is that it’s from a camera phone. Since I couldn’t be there myself to witness the performance firsthand, this will have to do:
I am really looking forward to the release of their next album. It’s been four long years since their last single, and six years since their last studio album. A new album will be much appreciated by this fan.
This video created by a Modest Mouse fan might just cross the line from fandom into fanaticism. The video is an animated collection of 4,133 still images taken by a digital SLR camera. Each of the stills is of various city settings, and in each of the stills is a photocopy of a frame of video provided by Modest Mouse. Some of the stills actually contain the video frames projected onto walls of various buildings. The still images were collected together and animated, then put to the music of the video from which the photocopies originated. While I’m not a big Modest Mouse fan, this video is probably one of the best music videos I have seen in a long time. Check it out:
In Florida, a teenager drove a Mitsubishi Lancer through a shopping mall entrance, and then just missed the escalater as he dropped the car off of the second floor twenty-five feet onto the first floor. And it was all caught on video by the security cameras:
That makes me think of how difficult it would be to drive through Woodfield.
I’m home for lunch. I was checking Google Reader and saw this video on YouTube’s Most Viewed feed:
The quality of the video isn’t that great, and you may experience some sync issues between the video and audio streams, but the point still comes across well: Bobby McFerrin can do some strange things with his voice.
I was all set to go to bed around 10:30 after playing Wii Play for about an hour. I went to go sync up the iPod, and I started checking out my blog instead of leaving my computer.
I now have iTunes links on my Life Soundtrack. If you don’t have a copy of my soundtrack, you can now download all but one song from the iTunes Music Store. Of course, if I see you on a semi-normal basis, you could just ask for a copy.
Now I must sleep, else I have another week that drags on because I’m tired.
So, I was about to go to bed after watching the eight hour of the first season of 24. Instead, I turned to NBC to see what was on the Tonight Show. I heard Jay mention that the cast of Wicked was going to perform. Unfortunately, I didn’t know if he was talking about tonight’s show or one later this week or next.
Rather than go to bed like I should have, I ended up watching the entire rest of the episode just in case the cast of Wicked might perform tonight. They did end up performing, and they performed Loathing. The traveling cast that is in L.A. did a pretty good job. Of course, it doesn’t sound exactly like the original cast recording, but good nonetheless
Needless to say, I am pretty excited about seeing Wicked again this summer. I know, I shouldn’t be so excited about seeing a musical for the third time; that should be Chris’s domain. Perhaps my third anniversary gift to her is a bit of a gift for myself?
Anyways, that’s all I was staying up to say. Good night.
I was tipped off to this the other day by Mike: Alanis Morissette did a video cover/parody of BEP’s My Humps and it’s spreading like wildfire on YouTube. Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-check it out:
