Psalm 98:4

"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth:
make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise."


Apparently Jesus was in Dethklok.

There's Stop-Motion, and there's Stop-Motion...

Best "Wings" cover EVER.

I stole this from an article on 'theworld.org":

"Consider this: in their version of Live and Let Die, the members of Pato Fu are all playing toy instruments. A toy piano, tiny drum kit, a baby-scale electric guitar, a plastic synth-keyboard with two octaves.

It’s part of a music video genre loosely known as VideoSong. The rules for videosongs can be summed up as what you hear is what you get: the sounds MUST be seen in the video, no lip-syncing allowed. And in Pato Fu’s VideoSong, they nail the Paul McCartney and Wings classic."

How to "wail":

Bill Kirchen, 'Titan of the Telecaster', playing Hot Rod Lincoln

It's pretty amazing work right from the start, but it slips into crazy-fun around 2:40.

Dare you to solve it.

Orrin McClellan, a falling star. I miss your laugh, man.

These vids are just little bits I had on my camera. The bottom three are just him working my RX-7 through her paces around the island. I wish (I wish) I had shot more.
The first one (across the fire, him strumming) is my favorite.

(Fuck, I miss you man).

Around the firepit.

Addendum: This is a video Orrin made a few years ago and posted on Youtube. His description:

"this generation's wars from eyes on the ground...the faces and names are placeholders. those who were there remember. the rest can only watch"

Reposted (stolen) from my friend Mike's blog.

This is the sort of moment the internet excels at. Oddly to me (considering the topic) this doesn't even mention the internet, but without the 'net I wouldn't have had the chance to see, enjoy, repost.

Anyways, this is a great 10 minute doc:

Sound advice.

Chris Lowe: "If you just want to create a Pet Shop Boys sound instantly you can program some drumbeats and then play an A-minor chord over it: “Oh, God, that sounds like the Pet Shop Boys. Oh, that’s the trick, is it?"
