He can't stay and she wouldn't run


Just in case you live in--say San Diego--and didn't get hit with 6" of snow to make a real snow man. Here's a chance to Make your own snowman.

The World Cup Draw is today and I mentioned that I was going to Germany--with or without tickets and it is for the Soccer and the Beer not the 40,000 extra pros coming to the Country. And speaking of the Beer this is just wrong on soooo many levels. The only Beer will be Bud. I want real beer.

What are the internets for? Take it away Cookie Monster. It's a song from Avenue Q. Great show. You need to see it.

Special Ops reports:
On December 20th, Rhino is releasing Phish: New Year’s Eve 1995, Live at Madison Square Garden – a 3-CD set (27 songs, over 3 1/2 hours)!!!
Widely regarded as one of Phish's finest live performances and called one of the "Greatest Concerts of the '90s" by Rolling Stone, their 1995 New Year's Eve show at Madison Square Garden is an amazing collection of the band's finest songs.

Xfm reports:
While Franz Ferdinand may have just played to a quarter of a million of fans over four nights at Alexandra Palace, it hasn’t stopped one of the hardest working bands in the UK already pushing on with their third album.
“We’re already writing some new tunes,” frontman Alex Kapranos told Lauren. “We’ve got a practice room set up at Ally Pally and we’re writing some new tunes. we’ve got two or three…”
“Then we’ll see how many songs we’ve got together but we’re talking about going into the studio at the end of January.

Gigwise reports: Blur are definitely set to make another album together according to bassist Alex James and will head into the studio later this month

Welcome to the future of the live concert. Not being there.
Bon Jovi's December 17 concert in Washington, D.C. will be streamed in its entirety through Sprint's wireless video delivery service. Subscribers to the Sprint MobiTV system will be able to watch for free, while those with Sprint PCS Vision will have the ability to purchase the concert. Sprint is sponsoring the New Jersey band's current tour, and band manager Paul Korzilius says, "The relationship with Sprint not only puts our music in the palm of fans' hands through full-track music downloads and ringers, but now gives them an exclusive opportunity to experience a live Bon Jovi concert. And because this is a sold-out tour, that's the next best thing to having a physical ticket."

Is Courtney Love selling Nirvana songs to Martha? that would just be wrong.

The title is from The Wren's "Uncorrected Proofs" Great driving songs from a great band you should get to know.
