I feel dizzy.
You could do worse than seeing A Camp and Craig Wedren tonight, especially if you’re familiar with the way former Shudder to Think frontman Wedren has gone on to do the scores of a number of TV and movie things often involving The State and Stella guys. Speaking of doing worse, Rush is playing tonight, and while I’m in no way beating up on the Canucks, I personally can’t go because of what happened last time I saw them. Trip down memory lane with me? I call shotgun. (more…)
Seems there’s quite a bit of interest in and curiosity about the intros and other repeating elements on Red Eye so I put this together: It’s Just Wordplay
to blog about every TV appearance but clearly that isn’t going to be happening. I will say that despite doing the Saturday show for about two and a half years now, just pre-taping a couple weeks left me out of practice getting up at the crack of dawn and this morning’s frequent checking of all the alarms was extra nerve-wracked. But there’s something nice about arriving at 30 Rock when no one is there, and were I given the choice to do the segment at a later hour of course I’d take it but I think I’d kind of miss the way the building feels before it comes to life.
Not to brag or anything, but I just got off the phone with my new buddyroo, Josh Schwartz, and we were talking about music, and I decided to pay him the compliment of talking at length about myself and all my various feelings about things pertaining to me, and afterward I was reflecting while checking myself out in a mirror and thinking that, as I was explaining to ol’ J.S., music used to be such a big part of my life—I mean, I used to play in a band for crissakes—and it just isn’t anymore. (Although I do really like the new Rilo Kiley album but I forgot to tell him that.) And part of loving music was loving going to shows. (more…)
As it turns out I won’t be doing Red Eye’s Halftime Report this Friday as Andy Levy isn’t going out of town after all, the bastard. Honestly though I was honored to be asked. As for your loss, which is considerable, here are some pictures to make up for it.
it isn’t the unmitigated blast of me that it would be if Brent My Favorite YouTube Guru had made the clip, but it’s from the most recent show nonetheless. And this week I’ll be on twice: Tuesday as a guest and Friday filling in for Andy doing the halftime report. I’d cancel all my plans if I were you.
