Loud. Really loud. I enjoy the feedback/fuzz as much as anyone, probably more than most, but this was even more than I could have imagined. The first sign that it might be louder than I was expecting was the kid handing out ear plugs at the door. No, seriously. I had a great time even [...]

As an unabashed Jack White fan and a late-in-life fan of Led Zeppelin, It Might Get Loud is right in my wheelhouse. Mercy.

Anthem Moonlight Ride

21, Jul 2009

Saturday, August 8, 2009 – 8 p.m. Starts and ends at Sports Backers Stadium. Its a night time ride for families. They offer a 2 ride lengths, 8- and 17-miles, and I Emma and I are definitely going to do it. I don’t know if she has 17 miles in her today, but she might [...]

Overall, I have to say my first triathlon experience was good. Since the start was a pool swim you had to submit an estimated swim time for 100 meters. I had no idea what to put so I just guessed at 2:30. That meant I started back where the poor swimmers were so I ended [...]

Huck Gee – Koalataur

21, Jul 2009

Huck Gee does all kinds of crazy, crazy custom work off of the Dunny template. This might be the best of his that I’ve seen. 10 Pieces at $800 per puts them way, way out of my league. It’s cool to look at, though. [via Vinyl Pulse, the source]

Cool Hunting has the interview. It’s short, but it’s not like they need to sell me on it. I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. Actually, the “interview” sucks. Let’s just call this a reminder that the DVD set comes out next week.

Just sick. No word on when they’re on sale but I will pass it along as soon as I hear anything. Here it is, LARGE. [you know I got the tip from OMGposters, Mitch sees all!]

Go here to listen to a couple of songs. You can find tour dates for the Fall there as well. Sounds pretty good to me. The album is due September 29th.

They have a new video coming out in a couple of weeks directed by Jonathan Glazer. I like these.
