The Kissaway Trail - Superb

The Kissaway Trail, yet another great band for you to check out. I like "Smother + Evil = Hurt" and "La La Song":

They're from Odense, Denmark by the way.

Hurricanes by Pull Tiger Tail

A truly great track, listen to it now!

Good Tunes from Riff Raff

This guy has some good tunes, particularly "Live Over Phones Beat" as played by Colin Murray on Radio 1:

Pump Up The Doorbell Mashup

The mashup is by partyben.com and the video by VJ Jaren. I also like Party Ben's mashup of Star Wars vs Chemical Brothers, "Galvanise the Empire".

Grease Auditions

I'm loving the Grease auditions on ITV2. These have to be better than the X-Factor auditions for entertainment value because they include a dancing element. Brilliant comedy value.

Catoplexy

I'm enjoying the sleep disorders series on the BBC at the moment. Tonight it was a woman with catoplexy, a condition related to narcolepsy whereby she would fall asleep if she laughed. She's probably the only woman not looking for a man with a good sense of humour.

Adam from the Adam and Joe Show

I am a fan of the Adam and Joe Show, and tonight I found Adam's website, it's at:

http://adam-buxton.co.uk/

and if you're a comedy fan it's probably worth a read.

My Name is Earl in The Killers

I've just noticed that Earl plays drums for The Killers. Watch the session The Killers did at Abbey Road for 4 Music and you'll see him.

Breakdancing Prodigy?

Photoshop Filter / Brush Strokes / Dark Strokes:

Gumball Rally 3000

I'm watching the Gumball 3000. Now, I do like watching because I like the cars, but looking at the speeds they are doing, this event should not be allowed. As much as I like Bentleys I would not be amused if I got hit by one going at 155.

White and Nerdy - Too Funny

Oh dear, wasting rather a lot of time on Google Video now, but this is too funny:

Life Tips from the Guinea Pig Song

Life not on track? Take some advice from a guinea pig:

Girl in Human Sling Shot

There is no way you'd catch me doing anything like this, it's not worth the risk for a few seconds of excitement, but each to their own I guess:

Currently Loving Just Jack Starz In Their Eyes

I like this song a lot, especially the line "It's a long way from the Dog and Duck Karaoke Days" (just for the rhythm he sings it with). Check them out on Myspace:

Kate Middleton and the Paparazzi

An interesting programme was on tonight about how the Paparazzi were already hounding Kate Middleton. This really shouldn't be allowed. Prince William has got his lawyers on the case, let's hope they get somewhere. What I don't understand is why those being hounded by the media don't try and cover their faces, then maybe the Paparazzi would give up on them. Q. Why do celebrities get hounded so much? A. The best photos can make a photo agency a quarter of a million pounds. That's serious bank, but it shouldn't be allowed IMO.

The Jose Mourinho Song

I said I liked Rose by the Feeling, now Radio One newsreader Dominic Byrne has done a parody version about Jose Mourinho. It's pretty funny, I wonder whether they will start singing it at Chelsea.

The Chris Moyles Autobiography

I got this for Christmas. Last night I managed to find 5 minutes to read it. I just opened it at a random page and he was talking about Girls Aloud. It's funny albeit rather offensive to the Ginger one (Nicola). I'm looking forward to reading the rest. It would be worth buying just for the pictures, particularly the one of Chris Moyles and the nuns that taught him, the caption "Can you tell which one liked me?" is brilliant.

Shipwrecked Back on our Screens

Shipwrecked is back on Channel 4. I would like to suggest a variation on this programme. The contestants are left on the island and then without them knowing the Channel 4 support team leaves and returns after a year to see if anyone has managed to survive.

Recent Songs that I Like

Rose by The Feeling (who I have seen live).

Bones by The Killers. The skeletons in the video freak me out a bit though.

American Idol Update

There are probably more deluded "singers" in America than there are in the UK. Amazing but true.

American Idol Back on Our Screens

If you've been missing Simon Cowell's cutting comments and savage destruction of people's dreams, American Idol has just started again on ITV2. The early rounds are always the best.

The Next Big Thing in Fashion

I learnt on GMTV (great programme) the other day that the next big thing in fashion will be "robotic". Metallic is in, so you can wear silver foil and metallic gold effect clothing. Now you know.

The Zamper Blog

The Zamper blog is go. Tonight I have mostly been watching Celebrity Big Brother ... and feeling sorry for Shilpa.
