The first nice day of spring/summer, when it's finally warm enough to drive with the windows down, I break out midnite vultures and just crank it. Something about these tunes just screams summer and warm weather. From the opening note of sexx laws to the final chords of Debra, its without question one of my favorite…

Flaming lips have done one too. I'm at work at the moment so I can't find the link but It's pretty great.

If you enjoy cool bands doing songs for kids shows, check out Chromeo on Yo Gabba Gabba.

No one has mentioned local car dealer ads yet? Here in north/central Jersey, we have some real winners... This isn't even the worst one from these guys... there's another one where they're wearing "smiley face" boxers and those stupid foam hats. These commercials wouldn't make me want to buy a sandwich from these…

I agree with you so much. I don't know why but this commercial angers me. It just...ugh.

"Just ask this SCIENTICIAN!"

Nice, except I would split your tier 1 in to 2 tiers. Banking goes above all else, as well as anything that has access to my bank (PayPal). FB I agree is important but I don't like the people at FB having the same password as my bank.

We think so. Its really just there to provide a subtle flavor, not to stand out on its own. You can adjust up and down as to your taste, obviously.

I love Mike Rowe, and this video hits the nail on the head. I'm an architect by training, however I spent all my summers during college working as an electrician. Honestly, I had more fun and got more job satisfaction out of that work than any of my time as an architect. I would go home after a day of pulling wire…

This looks like an incredible amount of fun. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for future events in NYC.

Angostura bitters is a key ingredient in my family's champagne punch recipe. Its strong stuff that sneaks up on you.

I'm surprised there aren't more defenders here. I was at the last show in MSG.

My old range rover had a LCD screen that would tell you basic stuff about the car that had broken. "traction failure" "gearbox fault" "alternator failure" "EAS failure" etc. The best was when the battery was dying and it forgot what language or market it was set in. One time when my water pump seized and the…

You use an LCD song as your soundtrack, but you didn't include watching their last show on April 2nd?

*Busts out all his old calvin & hobbes books again*

The thing about monster/beats is that they realized what Bose realized with regards to perceived sound quality- jack up either the midrange or the bass and you can make people "think" that your product sounds great. There is a lot more to great sound than a lot of bass. The trouble is, you're going to pay for it. My…

A-Fricken-Men. I hate when people hold up phones at shows. You're here for the music, enjoy it! If you like what you hear, buy the album at the merch table. Don't ruin my view by holding your phone in front of my face.

I like film specifically because it forces me to slow down, think about composition, lighting, focus, aperture and shutter speed. Granted, its not perfect for every occasion- i'm not going to shoot my friend's yearly thanksgiving football game with my Holga- but for those lazy afternoon walks or trips through the…

I really liked this thing's styling in the photos until I saw one in person the other day on route 80 going to work. I think it suffers from the design issues that plague most other korean cars- its too "fiddly" and tries too hard. The overall shape I like a lot but there's just too many little lumps and bumps and…

AMEN. I hate how people see job site safety as an afterthought or an annoyance. When I visit sites, technically I'm not allowed to point out safety issues as it could indemnify my office if something does go wrong, unless it poses an "imminent danger" to the person working, but I'm always irked when I see guys doing…
