This video is all over the place today, with good reason. For every guy who has rocked the air drums check out the real deal. I know the band isnt the coolest ever, but a gig is a gig and you gotta pay the rent. Whatever he does next (his name is Steve Moore, website HERE) Ill be curious to watch him do it. The entertainment factor is off the charts.....

R.I.P. RJ Dio
As a guy who was never into the "metal" of the 70's and 80's, i wasnt the owner of any music in which Ronnie James Dio's classic vocals were featured. This did not prevent me from appreciating the legend that he was, in the music world. His had a voice that could overshadow the loudest guitars. It was the standard of the genre and few could compare.
It is a sad day in the rock world as we have lost this icon to cancer. I may not have been a fan in the strictest sense of the word but it was impossible for any musician not to understand his impact and his place among rock royalty.
Rest in Peace Mr Dio.

Music sweet music
As a working musician who never made it as a real rock star with his own songs i sometimes lay awake at night and wonder why. Now i know. I never picked the right 4 chords.
This video explains it all. Its pretty clever really.....and telling.

Video games rock....no really...
Over at Ace of Spades i found what could be the coolest thing done by a dude on weed in years.
Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd arranged for the 8 bit Nintendo classic system. The whole album is on youtube and if you are a fan, it worth checking out. I was never a big Floyd fan but im still quite impressed. Here is a sample.
Here is the link for "Money" one of the better known songs off the album.....you can find the rest of the songs there too, i believe.
Just proof that Americans can do anything they put their mind to if they are given freedom......and maybe a little doobage.

Do it, Rockapella!
If you are my generation you may remember a game show for kids called "Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?" The highlight of which was the theme song by the a cappella legends Rockapella. Well....i found it...online....for your entertainment....
