Here we go with a new feature on Scene Not Heard: “What’s on Winamp?”
First off, I’m a big Winamp fan. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve used it since the advent of mp3s (around 1996, right?). Everyone else is big on iTunes, but why do I need all that extra crap of about [...]
What’s on Winamp? Volume 1
Memo to MLB Players: Don’t Be An Idiot
Seriously, how hard is it not to put something into your body?
Neifi Perez, a former Gold Glove winner now bench warmer for the Detriot Tigers, just got suspended for 25 games for using a “banned stimulant”.
Let’s see, today I had a multivitamin, glass of OJ, yogurt, and just went and ate chicken wings for lunch. [...]
It’s that time (again)…
Time to forgo all that is considered “fun” or “extracurricular” in favor of cramped hands and involuntary all-nighters. That’s right, exams lurk menacingly in the not-too-distant future! The good news is that this is the last time I’ll take an exam! Oh, wait… I still have to take the bar exam… and [...]
you GUESSED wrong!
WHY are people watching “Deal Or No Deal”?
They must be watching, because NBC is showing TWO FRIGGIN HOURS of it tonight.
I don’t have a problem with game shows… I love “Jeopardy!” and “Wheel Of Fortune” but there’s one thing that irks me about the popularity of this show:
THERE’S NO SKILL INVOLVED!!!
You heard it here first [...]
Here We Are Now, Entertain Us
My how the greats have fallen. Tonight while watching “Family Guy” I got to have an awful junior high school-type freakout: Nirvana’s “Breed” being used as a promo for ESPN’s MLB 2K7 video game for Xbox. Now, I love video games as much as the next guy, but there’s NO WAY IN HELL this would’ve [...]
Excited about Autolux
“Future Perfect”, Autolux’s 2005 release, is, in my mind, a musical masterpiece. Reminiscent of 70’s psych, shoegazer indie, and 90’s grunge. They’re working on and should have completed their new album to be released sometime this summer. Can’t wait!!! Did I mention Carla is an incredible drummer and hot to boot? Female drummers rule my [...]
First-World Problems
Argghhhhh!!!! I’ve spent the last 2 nights trying to get “The Empire Strikes Back” from .avi to .iso so I can then use DVDShrink to fit it onto one blank DVD. I’m either foiled by error messages or watermarks from trial version software. Arrgghhhh!!!! Any ideas?
I’m calling out Stretch Arm Strong
Growing up a South Carolinian, and fortunate to be introduced to underground music at an early age, I have had the opportunity to see lots of great bands that no one has heard of or hadn’t heard of yet, usually with only a few other people present. Example: Ethyl from Florida. Excellent. Put out a [...]
Modest Mouse… wtf?
I don’t get Modest Mouse. At all. Weird music, weird vocals, weird band. Only a few songs I’ve ever heard from them made any sense musically to me. Thank Screeching Weasel for ruining my ability to process song structure as a musician I guess. I got a listen to their upcoming release “We Were Dead [...]
Suck My Kiss!
“Stadium Arcadium” must not be selling too well for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, because I just saw ANOTHER damn Mac commercial with Anthony Kiedis in it!
See?
