Coachella Lineup Unveiled

Tuesday, January 31st, 2006

Um, holy shiitake.

The “real” Coachella lineup has finally been unveiled over at nme.com. Hello: Sigur Ros, Depeche Mode, Editors, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Lady Sovereign, Mogwai, Coldcut, Cat Power, Nine Black Alps. Oh. My. Lord. I must find a way to attend.

Jelly Time Remix

Tuesday, January 31st, 2006

By now you’ve probably seen K-Fed jamming to Popozao in the studio (if you haven’t, here it is). But now, here’s a remix for the new millenium - Federline jamming to Peanut Butter Jelly Time!

Things Would Get Better

Phase one of crazy day is almost complete; Yellowcard finished their soundcheck about 30 minutes ago and LP’s drumkit is two feet away from me. Earplugs, please!

Speaking of LP, I just finished an interview with him and he’s a super cool guy. He was showing me his Alien and Predator tattoos and waxing poetic on the original comics and how the A Vs P movie was really underwhelming. He balked when I told him that they’re making a freakin’ sequel, but said he’d be interested to see it, even if just to find out what they’ll do with it.

Live performance soon, if you’re down with it!

Cake Face

Monday, January 30th, 2006

cakeface.jpgLast year I read this amazing book by Laurie Notaro called “Autobiography Of A Fat Bride”. In it, Laurie recalled a funny anecdote about the crazy antics that recently married (and inebriated) couples get up to on their wedding night. At one wedding she attended, “the groom smashed the wedding cake so hard into his bride’s face that she had to blow her nose to get the frosting and little bits of strawberry bits out.”

When I read this (gasping for air because I was laughing so hard), I thought, “No way!” As if someone could get THAT much cake in their face.

Well, *I* was this very bride (so to speak) on Friday night when Chris and I (caught on camera phone) got into a crazy cake fight at a birthday party. I literally inhaled the cake, he caught me that off guard. Two days later I STILL smell strawberry vanilla frosting every time I inhale.

You know those crazy out-of-control parties you’d see in John Hughes movies from the 80s? Where there’s a pizza spinning on a record player and a huge dance party in the foyer of the house? Yeah, those types of parties. They totally do exist.

Question.

Are the SAG Awards just a superfluous version of the Golden Globes? I mean seriously now.

Big Money!

Monday, January 30th, 2006

Today’s a big day in Muchland - a live Yellowcard performance, a Live@Much with Our Lady Peace, and the premiere of VJ Search! Yowza. More to come.

Throw ‘Em Over Your Shoulder

I know this is a week old now, but remember the time Drew made fun of herself on SNL last Saturday? That was awesome.

More silly pics here.

And here’s the video!

Bean 2?

Thursday, January 26th, 2006

Thanks to Ryan for this list of upcoming movie sequels. There are 176 of them; 170 of which are completely unnecessary.

Screw Originality

I just laughed out loud during Sarah’s throw, and it was because of THIS. A couple of 11-year-old boys remade the now completely cult-like SNL digital short “Lazy Sunday”. Shot for shot, with shoddy lip-syncing goodness.

Here’s the new question: has “Lazy Sunday” already jumped shark? Technically not, cause it’s not their fault it’s become the new thing. Or is it? Cause it was so damn funny?

B-A-N-A-N-A-S

This just in! Writing on bananas is the new thing. They are a perfect canvas for hilarity and possibly philosophy. Justin wrote on the banana in figure one; it was supposed to be like our MuchMusic.com badge of honour but I think Ryan ate it.

In conclusion, bananas: not just for eating anymore. Please be aware that they are also particularly sweet for throwing.
