Do Something Less Boring Instead #8

18Apr08

From Pencils at Dawn.

Did you smell something funky as you left the house this morning? No, it’s not just you. A balanced view vs. The Daily Mail having a field day.

David Byrne, hot off guesting at BAM’s Paul Simon residency, is to hit the road with Brian Eno, and play a wealth of old Heads material and some “electric gospel”. I hope he comes to London, and that I find out before all the tickets go.

Get Framptonized by making your own talkbox. Wahwowwaahwow.

Ruin trips to your favourite restaurants with this needlessly upbeat-titled site. If I was Brucie, I’d sue.

An oldie, but a goodie as the intricacies of Marmaduke, the American Fred Bassett are explored.

And from one classic strip retooled to another. Jon never seemed so frightening before. If they could find a way to do it to the Garfield animated series with the late if-wet-Bill-Murray Lorenzo Music, that’d be awesome. Music was the voice of Venkman in The Real Ghostbusters, and then Murray took over Music’s vocal duties for the awful, awful Garfield movies.

Yikes.
