The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has got me feeling down these last couple of days. This tune just kind of fits the mood..

Throwback Thursday..

Classic Stooges..

On a different note, I read recently that the Stooges did a show earlier this year in New York where Iggy stage dived into the crowd and NO ONE caught him. Are you fucking kidding me New York?! GOD himself jumps into the crowd and your lame asses move out of the way?! Get the fuck out of here. I'm sure Joey and Johnny Ramone rolled over in their graves upon hearing this news. As a result of this travesty, I recommend to have New York's punk rock license REVOKED PERMANENTLY. Iggy, here in L.A. we respect punk rock royalty and would be honored to have you stage dive (and solemnly swear to catch you unlike those NY posers) anywhere you please..

Throwback Thursday..

Before he was Chef on South Park, Isaac Hayes was one of the baddest musicians there ever was. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone with more funk and soul flowing through their veins than him. Rest in peace Isaac, hope that Scientology stuff took you where you wanted to be..

Throwback Thursday


It's been a long time since the last post. No excuse really. Or maybe the fact that google pulled our ads had something to do with it..yeah that sucked. Anyhow, enjoy this bit of randomness.

Throw Back Thursday

It's been a while since the last post, due mainly to inclement weather prohibiting our usual outdoor excursions and to various other personal conundrums. But fret not! Out of the blue I had the sudden need to look up one of my favorite TV shows from the early days of FOX. So I present to you, in all it's glory..Parker Lewis Can't Lose episode 1. If you pay close attention, you'll see a very young Mila Jovovich..Nice.


I might have been the only fan of this show, as it did not last for very long. Too bad, it's more entertaining than most the crap on TV nowadays..

Til next time...

Throw Back Thursday

Those of you old enough to remember the show will appreciate this video. Let's just sit back and revel in the awesomeness that is the "Greatest American Hero" theme song. Enjoy...

Throw Back Thursday

Just stumbled upon this classic video which clearly shows how even way back in 1984, the WWF (WWE nowadays)was doing it's part in solidifying the USA-Iranian relations, as well as promoting racial harmony here in the Los Angeles area. Television at it's very best...



The awesome-ness of this clip gives me a rush similar to the good old pop-rocks and coca-cola combo.


Yep. TV doesn't get much better than this. Crazy Iranian guy? Check. Racial slur? Check. Old Italian guy dressed as a sheik? Check. Camel Noises? Check. I could watch this all day long.

Till next time...

"Open Your Eyes"-Lords of the New Church 1983

It blows my mind that these lyrics were written way back in 1983. This song sounds eerily like it could have been describing the current events of our time. The powerful words and dark imagery Stiv Bators and Brian James use to paint the world as they saw it during the Reagan era accurately describe the perilous times the present day world finds itself in today. 26 years later, it's amazing how little has changed. See for yourself.


Open Your Eyes

"Video games train the kids for war. Army chic in high-fashion
stores. Law and order's done their job. Prisons filled while
the rich still rob. Assassination politics. Violence rules
within' our nation's midst. Well ignorance is their power tool.
You'll only know what they want you to know. The television
cannot lie. Controlling media with smokescreen eyes. Nuclear
politicians picture show. The acting's lousy but the blind don't
know. They scare us all with threats of war. So we forget
just how bad things are. You taste the fear when you're all
alone. They gonna git'cha when you're on your own. The silence
of conspiracy. Slaughtered on the altar of apathy. You gotta
wake up from your sleep. 'Cause meek inherits earth...six feet
deep.
Open your eyes see the lies right in front of ya.
Open your eyes....."




Although one of their more popular songs, it's not surprising to me that so few video verisons are out there. Rest in Peace Stiv Bators, a true punk rock genius.
