“Bomb Iran” just broke 10,000 views on YouTube! And with 135 comments to date, along with its presence on various political blogs, it has become the stuff of LEGEND. Basically like John Wayne.
In album news, I started recording a song called “Waiting While Sleeping” a few days ago. It is popamatic. Bubble. It features a heaping pile of fuzz bass and Solina. It’s the recipe for beautiful mustiness.
I made a video for the future Missing Briefcase song “Going Insane For The McCain Campaign.” It’s kind of a video b-side to “Bomb Iran.” Cheggit:
I know it doesn’t beat the prairie dog video, but I guess I have to have realistic expectations of myself. AND DON’T FORGET I’m playing at the Main St. Ale House in Gresham tonight at 8 pm. It’s 21+. Attend.
Yesterday I recorded “Bomb Iran,” based on John McCain’s recent joke of singing “bomb Iran” to the tune of The Beach Boys’ “Barbara Ann.” I figured a full version was just begging to be done. I tried to get McCain himself to sing the vocals for me, but he made up some excuse about having to raise money or something for being president…I don’t remember exactly, but he was obviously just blowing me off. Whatever; I told him what time it was. Anyway, here’s the video on YouTube (click here for the lyrics):
So yeah, do that thing where you tell all your friends and enemies about it. If you have an account on YouTube, please rate it. I wanna be the next Star Wars Kid.
I promised some YouTube action, and I have brought it. Mr. Michael Hurd posted the first several songs of the party we played a couple weeks ago. It’s not perfect (I blew my voice out from too much singing/yelling before we played…oops!), but it’s really rad to see the songs with a three piece rock band. Continuing the band motif is something I hope to do from now on, if only I can get Billy Ocean to sing backup. Click here to see the videos!
