kathleen and i went to english beat this past weekend at grinders. it was excellent. they now have a replacement for ranking roger. his name is "anthony first class". he was great! and grinders is a very nice outdoor venue and the weather was perfect. very good time. (oh yeah, fixx and the alarm were there too)
so today i played some english beat, and a swedish band i just learned about and love called hedningarna. and some cartoon music including a hilarious song by spongebob and plankton. there wasn't a "real" video on youtube for it, so maybe it was never in a cartoon. but here is a homemade video where you can at least hear the song:

AND... i played this groove armada song with a hilarious video. for some reason it won't embed, maybe because its possibly Not Safe for Work, depending on your work. but its worth clicking on the link when you have some privacy:

Play list - 07/17/2008
started off with some soca music today, then some electronic... and played some herb alpert and some german stuff. also played what i considered a very hilarious song from 1991 that i just found at the station: L. L. cool J doing disney's "who's afraid of the big bad wolf", LOL. Wow, i even just found a video that makes it even funnier:

but i forgot to play some english beat to highlight their concert here on saturday. they were just here about a year ago, but this time they're touring with the alarm and fixx. i'm sure i'll recognize something by those bands.

Play list - 07/10/2008
When i met angelo moore (of fishbone) at the warped tour last week, he was selling some of his solo cd's and a comic book with an accompanying cd that you play while you read it. i haven't done that yet, but today i played a song from one of the other cd's i bought from him. the song is pretty depressing, about getting screwed over by record companies. the song is called "showtime (famous, but not rich)". not sure if its necessarily autobiographical, but it wouldn't surprise me if it is.
he was playing both the theramin and saxaphone when he performed. here's video of him playing the theramin on the 2006 warped tour, though its too bad you can't hear it better:

Pinker Tones @ Vans Warped Tour
Went to the Vans Warped tour yesterday specifically just to see the Pinker Tones from Barcelona. We got a little bonus though in that Angelo Moore of Fishbone was hanging out backstage. He had performed earlier and then we watched him perform later. Here are our pics!
http://picasaweb.google.com/mister.eb/VansWarpedTour2008/photo#s5218604366194965938
If you watch the Pinker Tones video of Sonida Total (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_nuysoe9kY) you can see that in Europe they play for huge crowds and do a massive stage show. And I've really loved their new album. So it was just blowing my mind that I considered these guys big electronic rock stars that we're lucky are stopping in Kansas City, but then they're performing on the smallest stage at the tour (it wasn't even a stage, they just played on the asphalt under a tent) and there were literally about 5 other people there to see them besides my girlfriend and me. All of the young kids there seemed to be waiting for the next band. But the good news for us is it meant we got to be up close and talk to the guys and take photos with them afterwards. They were very nice. Again, we were fortunate to get a chance to see them, its just too bad that more people from Kansas City didn't show up.
And it was very hot there.
