I sell iPods at Dodger games.

Will Ferrell in some sort of Apple commercial spoof clip... I think it was in a keynote this year. Not sure. But either way:



And while we're at it,

Ooh ooh ooh ooh.

All You People Are Vampires


and all your stories are stale. I can't stop listening to this Arctic Monkeys. UK bands have really cornered the market on danceable rock with really rocking guitars. I don't want to keep trashing Of Montreal, because I really do like their albums, but the energy on the Monkeys' debut Whatever You Say I Am, That's What I'm Not is unbeatable. Combined with the slurred conversational vocals, the Arctic Monkeys have created this new kind of dance-rock. It's some kind of less embarassing danciness. These guys (I almost want to call them hooligans) could kick Nick Kapranos and Kevin Barnes' asses, but they still want to make people dance. It's kind of like a less boring Oasis.

I think I just heard

Of Montreal in an Outback Steakhouse commercial. It was a remixed "Wraith Pinned to the Mist" with different lyrics. It made me want steak. I don't care that Of Montreal are doing commercials (good for them! and good for the Outback!)... what bothers me is how much they suck live.


Update
Someone finally got this up on YouTube:
