Welcome to the end of the weekend. I don’t have anything to write about, so instead I’ll show you a very quick video. A couple years ago I showed up at a birthday party with Ken and Z. I didn’t know anybody else there. I did not know the kid whose birthday it was. But, for some reason, I felt obligated to stand up during his birthday toast and say a few words about him. I don’t remember why, but I guess it was pretty funny. Anyway, here’s video footage of the short speech I gave (I’m not the first guy you see, I’m the guy in the white thermal shirt who stands up for no reason in the middle and starts yammering about a tree house). Watch the birthday toast
RULES for uninitiated noobs: With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week we’ve got some Northern Soul gems, a Doo Wop smash, and then a bunch of shit that completely doesn’t work together! Trust me, you’ll enjoy it. Ya Ho Wa 13, Nebulah and The Solitaires!? What the fuck! As always, these songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
