The Dead Weather

Speaking of reading through my tweets, Lisa_Veronica said this yesterday "http://bit.ly/yDicb The coolest thing I've ever seen." So me being me, I followed the link, and to the happiness of my eyes and ears I saw "Treat Me Like Your Mother" by The Dead Weather.



Oooh, yay, The Dead Weather. Yay, Jack White. Yay, hellamazeballs video.

Woah, The Veronicas' tweets made the last 2 posts. Well done goes to them too for entertaining video postage.

Daily Laugh: The Shambles Get to Know The Veronicas

I've really been digging The Veronicas lately, ever since I saw their Revenge Is Sweeter show in Grand Rapids, MI with Carney and TheArt, and well since before that too. I still need to do a post on that amazing show too. Got tons of great pictures and video. I just have to get the memory card adapter for my computer since I used Steve's camera. I should have that this weekend so post coming soon.

That's a whole other story though. This morning I was just going through my Twitters, and I saw that Jessicaveronica posted this:



It's probably one of the funniest things I've seen in a while, and it made my morning. Love starting the day with a laugh. Jess even says, "I LOL'ed myself stupid. <3 <3." I'd say that's a quite accurate reaction. Well done to The Shambles.

Oooh New Passion Pit Video!

So I'm totally stoked that Passion Pit has put out a new video for their song "To Kingdom Come." I love those Passion Pit guys and have never seen any videos by them before. Their music makes me insta-good-mood-ed whenever I hear it. I wonder if they have a video for "Sleepyhead" (since that's my fave song by them still)? Or maybe for "Little Secrets"? I doubt the second one though since the album just came out recently. Maybe that's next. Time for me to go search Youtube.

You on the other hand, watch "To Kingdom Come" by Passion Pit:

Rothbury 2009


Last weekend was officially the 2nd annual Rothbury Festival held at the Double JJ Ranch. No, unfortunately I did not go. I had the offer, but instead I went to spend some sun, fun, family, and friend time on the beautiful Chippewa Lake for the 4th of July.

I would have loved Rothbury I know though. There just weren't any bands that I was jumping at the chance to see though. Girl Talk, Chromeo, STS9, Cold War Kids, MSTRKRFT, and Damian Marley among others would have been pretty cool to see for me though. I'm not a big jam band fan though so not too much else stuck out. And I've already seen Bob Dylan when I was at the Austin City Limits Festival, so that was already crossed off my list. I would have highly enjoyed the whole feel of the festival and the fun art though.

In case you're interested, The MusicEdge Blog has a great review along with some great pictures and even video clips. Check them out or else be boring.

Seriously, how good was that? Also, listen to her version from her album 'It's Not Me, It's You."

Inspiration



Check this out ladies and gents:

The Uniform Project

Stunning. This girl is way creative and for a good cause. She's wearing one dress every day for one year. People should take a note from this girl, particularly on styling and on accessorizing.

On another note, HOLY WAH I'm BACK! For real, I am. I think. I do have ideas now, and lately what almost feels like . . . inspiration.
