At The Drive In, one really odd, poppy and hard rocking band, Applaud just played their last 2 CDs, sadly they broke up in 2003, Shameful Cry here's a clip of them playing One Armed Scissor live. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08qk_pMJFak

Also Cosmonaut live. Dancing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n4dfFOkvfE

If you liked these tunes, 2 of them formed a group which is still going somewhat strong, Mars Volta. Nut

I just heard it for the first time this weekend. I thought it was pretty good so I thought I'd share. Smile

If you thought a ukulele was just a funny little Hawaiian instrument, think again:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puSkP3uym5k

Among his many accomplishments, Jake Shimabukuro was also responsible for creating the film score for Hula Girls, the Japanese film which won the Japanese Academy Award for Best Picture.

Shimabukuro is continuing the tradition set by ukulele virtuosos of previous generations like Ohta-san and Eddie Kamae of showcasing the ukulele as more than just an accompanying instrument.

^ Was not aware he had done that soundtrack. What he's able to do with an instrument that only has four strings and just covers two octaves is truly remarkable. Applaud

^^ Wonder if she had to eat those words? Doh! Speaking of them, today had he been alive George would have turned 68.

The memorable tribute concert in honor of George Harrison, the Concert For George, will be streamed for free on GeorgeHarrison.com this Friday to celebrate his birthday.
On November 29, 2002, one year after the passing of George Harrison, Olivia Harrison and longtime friend Eric Clapton organized a performance tribute in his honor. Held at London's Royal Albert Hall, the momentous evening featured George's songs, and music he loved, performed by a lineup that included Clapton, Jools Holland, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Monty Python, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ravi and Anoushka Shankar, Ringo Starr, Dhani Harrison and many more.

If you want to watch it here it is, will be going on until about 3 AM EST. Mr Green

Musical quote of the day:

�gThe music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.�h

That's a fun fact... Beatles will always be Beatles, it seems like they'll be living on with their great songs... I have to agree with my dad that their generation seems to have produced the best music...

Speaking of ukulele, when I was over at JACCC plaza today for Nisei Week, these guys were giving ukulele lessons: http://ukulelecreations.com/Home.html

And it wasn't just a few people, they had them split up into three groups of about 25-30 people each. Maybe the ukulele is starting a new trend.

Yeah, I was there today too... Lots of ukelele aficionados, to my surprise.
