It's a ParkLife-Life for us!

Leave it to the Ten Pound Crew to hit you with a Dragon Punch you for a 3-hit combo when it comes to bringing the noise. When i say noise i'm talking full quality music for a full quality day. Last years Parklife at the RNA brought together some of the finest muscians for a brilliant day out with a great crowd which, by the smile of everyones faces through out the day, revealed how much fun they were having. Don't believe me? Here's Jess's photos to prove it!

If you need proof look at the poster right there - yeah i know you can see it! What a line up! Seriously! Mixmaster Mike, Cold Cut, Krafty Kuts, Stanton Warriors, Freeform Five, Who Made Who, Butterfingers, My Ninja Lover, Pty Ltd and plenty of other groove makers still to be announced! I know Im getting my early bird for this festival of awesomeness because I don't need to umm and arr about getting along to Brisbane's South Bank for this one.

Ten Pounds of Funk and shit in yo face! God bless ya Ten Pounders.

Splendour in the Mud

If you have been living under a rock for about the past month you would'nt know that the annual Byron Bay music festival "Splendour in the Grass" is on this weekend! With my trusty, personalised, fancy pants and ID needin' ticket, I plan to soak up the cold air and wet weather for a most awesome weekend. Yeah you heard me...wet weather has been forecast for this weekend but fingers crossed it will be only a light helping - for this weekend anyway! Damn shame I'm not camping! :-D With a line up including such favourites as Dj Shadow, Death Cab for Cutie, Scissor Sisters, Wolfmother, The Avalanches (athough its only a dj set), Something for Kate, Decoder Ring, Paul Mac, The Presets, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Mos Def, TZU and plenty of other people that make good music; it's going to be a corker! So this weekend will be a non-event blogging wise but be prepared for an onslaught of images and video of the event once I put myself back together after the fact. :) I'm still waiting for the street press to publish the timetable that I will no doubt take the time out to make a game plan that will probably either be lost or not followed anyway :P But it's always smart to be prepared! This will by my first splendour - bring it on!!! Psssst...hey! Want to see what the ticket swag looks like?

The Vader Sessions


Ok all you Star Wars fans, geeks, cosplay dressers and Vader lovers - this is for you! More vader than you can spear an ewok with! Whats great about this video is that it really is Earl Jones' voice is sampled from all his different movies which makes for a great effect. It's a little long (about 9 mins) but i got a heap of good laughs out of it! "You get your black ass outta here!" lol! My favourite bit has to be the Tie Fighter Part :) Get Vadorised now and watch the video!

You Two Faced Little .... Cat?

Today's bizarre news story comes to you from NBC in the US with a report on a kitten that was recently born with not one but two mouths to feed! Who's going to pay for all that food I ask? What will all the other cats think of this amazing animal and which face would they go for first? I kinda want to get 2 balls and taunt them with it and throw the ball in different directions to see what happens. Evil yes - but funny!

New Old Update Kinda Sorta

Well I've finally managed to scan a good portion of my old photo's hidden away for years in a draw i nearly forgot i even had! Now that I have discovered the digital age of cameras I needed to re-scan these photos at a higher revolution making them look a whole lot better and even managed to find some photoskills while i was at it. Some of these photos date near 10 years or more and my scanner is nearly as old and some photos look a little dusty so sorry about that but thems the breaks! I still have a heap of the old photos coming along shortly so stay tuned there's still more! While on the subject of photo's, if you haven't already checked out my smugmug site be sure to as there are plenty of recent photos too. Bri's birthday party at the Sunbar is one of them! Well kids keep coming back as Im finally getting the hang of this blog-o-rama!

Crazy Japanese Simpsons Commercial Get!


Mr Sparkel!!!! One of the more amusing clips i've seen from The Simpsons, this particular one karate chops you in the face and makes you jump in vats of hot water to score points for your team! I heart Japanese culture! Enjoy!
